I could really go for some cookies right now. Some = a lot. I would like to just sit and stuff my face with a whole batch of quality (in taste, not nutrition)carbs . But I can't bring myself to do it - even though I have a reason for the largeness that is my belly, I can't bear the thought of sitting at the office cramming cookies into my mouth while people walk by thinking, "that's why she looks like she's carrrying twins."
I guess these are the cravings that arise when one goes a weekend without baking. Weekend before last, I made a rhubarb cobbler/ dumpling/ yumminess - should I be embarassed to report that Sam and I ate the whole thing in one day? (I guess that's better than eating it in one sitting.) And the weekend before that, I baked oatmeal cookies with pecans and dried cranberries. We managed to stretch those out for several days. But this past weekend, nothing. And now I suffer.
I may break down and buy some Pepperidge Farms. For how else will I make it through the day?
Posted by Shokufeh at July 13, 2005 04:53 PMMy downfall right now? What I like to refer to as "chewy's"...you know, fruit chewy candy full of yummy suger fun! Specifically, the Sweet and Sour candy's you can buy at Target...I love the watermelon ones. I could eat a bag in one sitting, but I don't....I cut myself off after 4. The bag has actually lasted since Monday! Yeah me!
Hang in there...do like me and eBay instead and give into your shopping craving!
