    Nasty (real nasty!) dental appointment yesterday and finally tooth a little less sore. Just can't open my mouth as so sore from all the injections to try and numb my tooth. So no chewing still. Tried a chocolate biscuit - 6 teeny bites and just not the same. So I'm off out to buy every flavour of ice cream I love so as not to feel I'm missing out!

    On Monday I bought my nieces & nephews some holiday doughnuts from Wal-Mart's bakery in the shape of a tree caked with icing. It came in a six pack so of course I had to eat two of them so it would make it more even for them:D.

    Tomorrow I plan on eating:

    Breakfast:

    Chocolate Chip Cookie Dough Quest Bar & maybe some biscuits & gravy

    Lunch:

    ALL THE FOODS! Chili & Fritos, meatballs, homemade crab dip with chips & cucumber to dip in, deviled eggs, crock pot macaroni & cheese, dirt dessert, snickerdoodle cookies, lunchmeats, & who knows what else.

    I plan to stay within my calorie allotment and stay slim. Nothing is worth gaining back the weight that took so long to lose!

    I hear ya. Wisdom is justified by her children. We're having home made pizzas. I'll have my share but won't stuff myself. If I ate 4000 or more calories I would feel uncomfortable (physically) for most of the day. So, pizza, some merlot and good friends will suffice.

    Tonight for dinner I'm making Ham, green beans, sweet potatoes and rolls.

    Which will be promptly followed by hot cocoa while driving around looking at xmas light displays with my kiddo. There will be whipped cream and marshmallows involved.

    Also, I will need to help Santa Claus eat the cookies we leave out for him. He's fat enough as it is and I'm pregnant. I'll try to leave him a cookie.

    I'm thinking some Eggnog will also be appropriate but I haven't logged it yet.

    I ate about 3000 last night... had fried chicken, baked ziti, mac and cheese, rice and beans, biscuits, BBQ spare ribs, washed it down with copious amounts of liquor. And had a slice of Junior's strawberry cheesecake.

    I started the day with two pieces of this, after dreaming about it all night. Sheesh it's even better the next day (it's chestnut buttercream inside, chocolate buttercream outside).

    log_zps91d6bac2.jpg

    So I'm at 1000 calories so far and it's only 9am. Breakfast buffet tonight (quiche, French toast, hash brown, and more), and I doubt I'll skip lunch so... Probably 3-4000 calories today. Still unsure about tomorrow, I'm making another log, but I'm not sure if I'll be getting any chocolate or not (which would probably make all the difference).

    Let's bring it on.

    Last night I was doing some Christmas baking. I made Chocolate Chip Caramel Surprise. (It's basically a chocolate chip cookie recipe with a caramel piece wrapped in it and then I used mint chocolate chips) I think I ate 6 of them. :p After all you MUST test your baking as it comes out of the oven to make sure it's safe to give to other people, and then you also need to test at least one off of every tray that comes out right?

    Always have to test for poison. Not only that, but how the baked good 'stands' is pivotal for presentation. Taste is a deal breaker. If an item looks great but tastes like crap, you better be prepared for not receiving any gifts. This is all highly important stuff.

    no- you have to test pre-bake- and post bake.

    make sure it's right before you bake (what a waste if it's NOT)
    and then clearly post bake- can't share sh!tty cookies- EVER. so you must test to make sure!

    That has fruit...

    ...which means it's healthy...

    ...so it doesn't count at all.

    That's pretty much what we all agreed on here.

    Same with the bannan creme pudding- and weird greek baclava dessert they fed me that they are calling it the Battle Star Gallatica dessert... which was described to me as
    - "an angel *kitten* in my mouth- because it's heavenly"

    and which point I texted back
    "I"m on my way"

    I'm not sure what was in that. but it was pretty good.
