Well the holidays are upon on us and I was really nervous about them. I do all the cooking and you know how that goes, you nibble while you cook right? Well, I am proud to say that I did very well, and am pleased to say I didn't gain an ounce during the Thanksgiving Day dinner. YEA!!!! I ate about a tablespoon of different things and managed to please everyone but most importantly myself. I am so happy about not gaining because we all know that there is always a TON of food. Plus, I was the only person who couldn't do the whole pecan pie, and pumpkin pie or chocolate pie, and it was all good. I didn't really crave them too bad.

I am looking foward to Christmas Dinner, but have to admit that will be the harder of the two. My weak spot is peppermint chocolate and those kinds of things. And wouldn't you know it, AFTER I have surgery, Oreo comes out with a peppermint oreo. Damn it. That is the ONE thing I have craved. Oh and ribbon candy. My husbands grandmother always bought me a box, and I guess I don't miss the candy as much as the thought behind it. She was the seewtest lady and loved carrying on that tradition. Oh well I am sure she understands and is cheering me on. Love you Gram!!!!

Well I really hope that the holidays have been good to the rest of you. Take care and keep on keeping on.
