Day 17: Went to a birthday party. Christmas cookies, homemade chocolate covered peanut butter, custom made vanilla cake from one of the best local bakeries... I left the party exhausted, over-stuffed and with heartburn (thanks to baby sticking her legs up in my organs). It was fantastic, but boy did I pay the price.0

Day 17: Holiday lunch at my son's school which included turkey, macaroni n cheese, peach cobbler and vanilla ice cream.
Kids and I made homemade pizzas Friday night, I fell asleep on the couch watching Christmas shows with them.
Day 18: mall shopping = marble slab creamery - I had a small scoop of chocolate peppermint. That night we went to holiday dinner with friends at one of my favorite restaurants, I had fish trio and cinnamon sugar donuts with maple bacon whipped cream.
Day 19: cappucino and brunch with husband before more shopping, dinner was a roast in the crockpot with mashed potatoes and carrots, followed by Trader Joe's Jo Joe's Cookie Sampler while we decorated the tree.
