Peanut butter blossoms – so much fancier than when I say i stuck a Hershey Kiss on a PB cookie:)

last night, while talking to my friend Sarah, I made a goal to limit my sugar intake for the rest of the week.

ok. let’s get real.

On Sunday, I said to myself; “Self. limit your sugar. it’s making you tired. it’s making you crash. it’s making you grouchy. and aren’t eating to satisfy anything you are eating to eat.”

then on monday, an engineer brought in a dozen donuts to the office. There were 5 of us here. I ate a donut AFTER I ate breakfast. I ate a donut as breakfast dessert. Is breakfast dessert necessary? Probably not.

Then, at about 3PM, i went to refresh my tea, and I grabbed another donut and ate it WITHOUT EVEN THINKING ABOUT IT, until the donut was gone, and i said to myself; “Self…did you just eat a donut!?”

Then monday night i ate m&ms.

Then tuesday, I got to work and someone had brought int coconut macaroons. So i had one.

then i had yogurt. with a broken up macaroon mixed in.

then i went home, and I ate m&ms. And a toffee nut latte. and more m&ms.

THEN i talked to Sarah.

So today – Jerry made cookies. For the four of us here. and….wait for it…I TURNED THEM DOWN.
VICTORY IS MINE.

(thus far)

amen and amen.

(p.s. if it would have been a peanut butter blossom, i may not have been able to turn it down)
