I said NO!! to my Mother in Law! N.S.V

My Mother In Law is a big foodie and loves to make anything with lots of fat and sugar The more cheese and butter the better, and when you're talking deserts the richer the better... We rarely have dessert at home but they usually do, even at lunch time.

Yesterday we were invited for lunch after church, She had made home made pizza (with two types of meat and some veg and loads of cheese) as well as Banana Cake with real (18%) whipped cream.
I brought a 200 calorie spinach salad with mango and sprouts and some asian dressing.....I said no thanks to the cake too.
I Reeeeeaaaally could have had a slice of pizza but I actually had the will power. - She generally seems offended if you don't eat what she makes, but I decided, since I don't really like her anyway, why should I appease her request! lol

Then, later I had to make some treats for my daughter's kindergarten class. I made sandwich cookies with licorice legs to look like spiders. I through out the left over icing and the dozen cookies that were left, got iced and sent with my son, to his nursery school. I figured better to pump up the 2 year olds on sugar than to have the left overs in my house! lol - So far today I haven't eaten a SINGLE halloween treat, and plan on keeping it that way.
