They call my name . . . and I am weak . . .

Can you believe it?  Here we are in the second week of January and there is STILL holiday food hanging around and taunting me?

Okay, so it isn't really holiday food.

No candy canes.

No cut-out cookies (they're long gone).

No fruitcake.  (Okay, we didn't have any of that -- and I wouldn't have eaten it anyway ... just sayin'.)

But we got several gift baskets of yummy things that have delicious things.  Like cheese.  Crackers.  CHOCOLATE COVERED COOKIES!!!

The easiest way to resist them is NOT to open them.  Okay, got that.  But do these goodies have to come with a voice?

"Come here.  I'm delicous.  Eat me!"

I feel like Alice in Wonderland, only I won't get smaller if I eat them, and that's been the goal.

Do you still have holiday treats hanging around?

  1. I sent all holiday goodies home with my sister and they enjoyed it on their ride back home.

  3. Yep. Esp. some lovely pears my hubby's bro & wife sent us. Along with *sigh* some turkey summer sausage & cheese his wonderful aunt sent. (I'm afraid we've scarfed up most of the chocolate that came along with them. No will power at all. But it's taken us well over 3 weeks to munch our way thru the small amount that they sent. Hey, no one's perfect, right?)
