Confession

Tuesday was my husband's 30th birthday. I thought about inviting a bunch of people over so that I wouldn't end up with a weeks supply of birthday cake, but the more I thought about it I realized all the people I was thinking of inviting were more my friends than his, and that seemed silly. I should have done it anyway. I did invite the couple that lives on the other side of our duplex, but that still left the weeks supply of birthday cake that I was trying to avoid. I don't have a problem with eating a piece of birthday cake on a special occasion even when I'm supposed to be cutting calories. My confession is that I have had a piece of birthday cake every day since Tuesday, because it's there, and I don't want to waste it, and I don't want my husband to eat it all because that wouldn't be good for him.

Baked goods are my weakness. I don't really go crazy for cake, but cookies, muffins, brownies - those I can't resist. Especially when gifted by neighbors. Today my friend brought us some chocolate zucchini bread. That can't be too bad right? Because it's still zucchini bread? It has to be at least as good as these Chocolate chocolate chip banana muffins that I made yesterday because I had bananas that needed to be baked. For my sake, it might be easiest to quit baked goods all together until I reach my goal weight, but I think if I did that I would never be able to eat them again, and that would just be sad.
