Best snack ever!
Tortilla (the kind you bake yourself so it's still warm, thanks MJ) rolled up with cheese in the middle dipped in guacamole. YUMMY!!!! Just had to share.

Fasting From Fast Food
oh say that title 5 times fast..
On Wednesday after one to many trips to Little Ceasers for their $5 pizza ( who can resist such a cheap quick dinner, not me) I decided that I'd had enough. I feed my kids way too much fast food. You try resisting Mcd's half price tuesday's where I can get 2 happy meals for the price of one. Okay to be honest it's maybe once a week, but I still think that's too much. Maybe it's was the few weeks leading up to Wednesday that was the breaking point. During our trip to Utah we ate so much more fast food than normal, and it was making all of us sick. And I was getting tired of each day as it gets close to dinner they start off asking for happy meals or pizza.
The kids and I agreed to cut out eating out (and take-out) for the next month. PJ also reminded me that means no quick trips to Sonic's during happy hour for my not quite daily fresh fruit slushee (that kid thinks too much). We'll see how the next month goes. Miss Kitti suggested keeping some freezer meals ready for those days that I would normally be tempted to head to the drive-thru. And also per Miss Kitti's suggestion we'll be pushing the H2O alittle harder around our house too.
I'll get back to you in a month to see how it goes, hopfully we'll be a few pounds lighter and a few bucks richer.

Chocolate
What can I say, I think that I only know one person who's not fond of chocolate. Though I do believe that every now and then even she'll eat the stuff. Chocolate, or the thought of chocolate has gotten me through some very hairy stuff. When my kids are falling apart, fighting with each other or with me, when Mr. Man is really late getting home from work Chocolate is what gets me through it. Sometimes I don't even have to eat it, just knowing that I can eat it and it'll comfort me is enough to get me through those few minutes ( maybe even a hour or 2). So today I'm grateful for chocolate.
