Default Blizzard Wizard

Poor Pollyanna, Pollyanna's upset,
I've cooked up a storm and now have regrets.
I'm stuck in the house, because of the blizzard,
On a day like today, I'm a real kitchen wizard!
Bread in the pans, rising up high
And in the oven a big apple pie.
It all looks so good - and what an aroma
but if I eat all these carbs, I'll be in a coma.
The kids are contented, My husband - practically purring,
But into my head, a thought is occurring.
I've made them all happy, I really like that
but if Pollyanna eats it, it WILL turn to fat.
What am I doing? Have I finally gone mad?
Pollyanna knows, that for her, carbs are bad.
So far, so good, Pollyanna's been strong,
To eat all the goodies would be, oh, so wrong.
I sit at the table and see each smiling face
I pick at my salad - push it around on my plate.
As I look at my family, I feel our eyes meeting
It's not what you eat - but with whom you are eating.

Good for you Pollyanna - cute poem too!! Stay strong - if you eat it ten minutes later you'll be very sorry.

Thanks KoKo.
you are right, I have certainly caved in to temptation before, but hopefully not today!

Hi Pollyanna! Sorry to hear about the blizzard, hope it doesn't last too long. Maybe you can use the time to work on some project that you've been putting off that will keep you out of the kitchen. Our last rainy day, I spent the day putting my pictures in the photo album (was almost 7 months behind!) And don't worry about succumbing to temptation yesterday after all, yesterday doesn't matter as much as today does! And today is always brand new with no mistakes in it!

Christy

Yesterday my family was home safe and sound and all was well, so i really wasn't complaining. even though the storm raged i was very cosy and content and, bonus- I did stick to my diet!
I really love hearing from you all. It is making this journey not only easier, but even enjoyable!
Hey Christy, 27percent progress, good for you!!!!!!!
