So Then What??

Okay, so once I fell off the wagon I felt pretty cruddy about my willpower and eating habits and the way my body looked in what were once my sexy jeans.  So I did the best thing I could.  I ran (drove) .6 miles to Zesty's to pick up their flavor of the day.  And an extra pint to bring home just in case my tastebuds desired something differently.  I would so change my eating habits after I have this last bite of Mint Mackinac Fudge.

Umm. In case you didn't notice, Thanksgiving comes after Halloween.  And I'm not so sure about your mother, but mine likes to cook in the event that 87 random people just may show up at the house that day.  "Oh, hey Susie from the 8th grade!  I just had this hunch that you might stop over today!"  In turn this means that there is a ton of food to go around the table twice.  And a ton of food to bring home in multiple tupperware containers that you secretly "forget" to return.  (Who needs couponing!) 

And did you read the last post??? My new beaufriend is the one who got me on this weird healthy junk.  I'm pretty sure I didn't want to throw it out there at the table that I'm now a non-Wisconsinite, also.  As a couple we decided it would just be best to put our social needs ahead of our dietary needs and inDULGE.  Black Friday = Whole 30.

Yum. Yum. Yum.  Thanksgiving was so delish.  Did you ever eat pumpkin roll?  It has been a T-day tradition foreva.  It is basically sugar, wrapped up in sugar, and dusted with sugar.  There is a little bit of pumpkin flavoring in there, also.  I only had two slices.  B-friend double stacked his slices secretly (which resulted in four slices).  I caught him pumpkin handed.

And there was also pumpkin pie, pecan pie, and this great pumpkin cake that my sister made.  She named it Better Than Pumpkin Roll cake.  I can't tell you if it really was better than pumpkin roll, because my mom might be reading this, but I think my sister was really onto a close runner-up.

Me and B ate our food and were sent home with a majority of the leftovers.  During the final hours of our sugar indulgances, we accomplished to mow down four pieces of pumpkin roll, a couple slices of pecan pie, and about a quarter sheet of Better Than Pumpkin Roll cake.  It was a great way to put enough insulin in our bodies to last for the next thirty days.
