It sounds silly, but I know that one day soon, she won't be around for me to enjoy her wonderful cooking. So I do the best I can when I go. At least I got her to stop putting out appetizers/junk food before dinner. That helps a bit.

Wanda, sometimes we have to do just what you did, and consider it an act of love when we do - if you had children and they made you a special breakfast on Mothers day - you'd just be breaking their little hearts if you didn't eat it - this was exactly the same kind of thing - a few couple of cinnamon buns the other night - is NOT a week long screwup - and we all know how disciplined you usually are.
