It's 6:40pm, I've eaten dinner and the demons are coming. What demons you ask? The ones that tell me that my DAY, my LIFE, my EXISTENCE here on earth, will not be complete until I have a dessert. There are no desserts for me tonight and I'm feeling like I'm FREAKING OUT!!! I won't cave, though. I'll have some tea (with a little bit of milk and sugar) and I'll call it a night.
This is tough...very tough.
Oh, and for those of you thinking, "just have a little of something." I can't. I had a little of something last night, which was probably not the best move, and now tonight I want more... and tomorrow night I'll want more...and so on. I have to cut this off now before it spirals out of control...AGAIN!
Suggestion for the dessert issue, since you still allow yourself tea with a little cream and sugar.
ReplyDeleteFind yourself a loose tea shop. We've got a good one down here and if Polk County, Florida has a good tea shop there has to be one in Massachusetts somewhere.
Pick a nice tea that has a dessert feel to it. It doesn't have the satisfaction that diving into a dessert does, but you get the comfort of a hot cup of tea with the scents of something bad for you. I'm a fan of Earl Grey De La Creme. Michelle found one that actually smells like coffee cake when we brew it.
Thanks so much for the suggestion!!!
