    This is too much excitement and optimism. To bring it down a notch i probably will not get out of bed to retrieve the prize

    I keep reading super positive posts like: "We can do this!" "Let's team up and make it happen!"

    Woah there, tiger. Who put bath salts in your morning coffee? I need to find my people--the ones that consider getting out of bed and going through the motions of daily life a grand personal achievement.

    Where are the people that are celebrating that they DIDN'T eat the cake that was in the work break room?

    The super optimism might work for some, but I need peeps with a lower level of enthusiasm. Add me if you feel then same.

    Your curtsy is a little over the top. Can we tone it down a bit?

    I ate the cake

    I hope it was good cake and not one of those Costco cakes.


    I bake my cakes fresh and lick out the bowl. Sometimes I even make icing (frosting) just so I can eat it all by myself

    Mmmm cake . . .

    *Goes off to find a flourless, sugarless cake recipe that I can consume guilt free*

    And pleasure free :confounded:

    I will argue against that point. I am doing an anti-inflammatory diet that I thought would be all doom and gloom. Last week I made a brownie recipe that used Stevia sweetened chocolate chips and black beans as a base. They were a little flat but the consistency was fudgy and they were damn good.

    And I should know because I am a brownie connosiour, as ordained and verified by some French guy I met in the city.

    I am going to experiment with using eggs and the stevia sweetened chocolate chips to make a flourless cake next.

    I have yet to find a recipe that tastes as good as this. I don't want to get too enthusiastic, but I'm glad you can

    Today I'm making dessert for an event. I probably won't eat any today.I might sample some tomorrow.
    I took a nap when I was tired instead of eating.
    I finally brushed my hair and got dressed at 2 PM. I was awake from 7 AM- noon.

    You are a strong candidate to take the lead here.
