Heres how I celebrated finishing the BFL - DH made a really big deal about it and was so sweet
- he said he had meant to get champagne and pop it after I finished the last 20MAS yesterday but he forgot so we would have it at dinner (probably a better idea than 9ish in the morning)
I had decided that rotisserie chicken was not a glamourous enough meal to go with the promised champagne - so I went along on the champane buying trip to pick up something else for dinner - but first stopped at the drugstore (for wrinkle erasing creme) and they had these little individual squares of fudge for sale - I just LOVE fudge - but only eat it about every 4 or 5 years. I managed to tear myself out of the store without buying it - went to the supermarket and was at first going to get steak and shrimp - BUT decided that some fish with shrimp would be a better choice - so picked up a beautiful fresh rainbow trout fillet, a bag of jumbo shrimp and a bag of scampi (lagoustina tails - pain in the butt to eat but
) make it all the way to the checkout and then suddenly do an about turn and race to the bakery where I pick up HALF A POUND of fudge and somehow manage to toss a package of KoKoNut macaroons into the cart as well
- now I did show some restraint - we still had to hit the video store and I did NOT open the fudge in the car - nope I managed to wait till I was unpacking the groceries
- THEN I gobbled down a couple of squares and a macaroon or two - this resulted in me falling asleep on the couch (sugar makes me tired) I woke up to make the dinner (which was mmmmmmmmmmmm
) (there was also a large baked potatoe with the meal) but I kept nibbling on fudge while I was cooking - why did I DO that - it was a joke last night but I feel awful now
- just a bit sickish from too much sugar - but just mentally awful that I did such a stupid thing - DH is saying - well you deserved a treat, you only do that every few years blah blah blah....... but I feel like such a dumb dumb to let myself be controlled by sugar like that. Well today I will throw the rest of the fudge out if DS dosen't want it.
For me it's sugar that does me in - I can handle grains and other starches without going on a binge - but sugar
- let's see next fudge party - lets hope it's not till 2010.
