pretty: food

Today I have a chronic empty stomach and a persistent sweet tooth. I would be happy with: sugar cookies, snickerdoodles, cotton candy, conversation hearts, lucky charms cereal or a cream cheese danish, but extra sugar means extra buttage and extra guttage. Instead I'm fixing broiled flounder, mac & cheese and a fresh fruit salad. Yes, I know I didn't mention any veggies, but I forgot to get broccoli at le grocery store.

So what are you guys eating for dinner? Did you have any yummy snacks today? I don't know why I'm so hungry! When I was younger and I was really underweight (even though I could out eat most men) my stepmom's dad told me that I must have a tapeworm. Of course he was kidding, but I begged my dad to take me to the doctor to be sure! He didn't take me, and I didn't have one!

Thanks to everyone who emailed me pictures of their projects! I think I'm going to do the "what I've been working on" post on Saturday, so be sure to check back and see your lovely work! If you'd like to share your projects, you can still email me pictures and descriptions at kissparrotkiss@aol.com

One more thing, if you like drawing, writing, or just being creative in general, you should definitely sign up and join the notebook journey. I think I'm number 43, and the last I heard, there were 65 lovely people signed up!

  4. is that my little pony made of ICE CREAM?!?

    I treat myself to one serving of light mint chocolate chip ice cream after dinner. I have a RAGING sweet tooth, and the only way I can make myself stick to a healthy diet is to give myself one small treat to look forward to every day

  5. Cole, I love jelly beans, especially if they're Jelly Belly buttered popcorn! I have no self control!

    Capow, yep, it's my little pony! I used to have tons of those little dolls! My hubs eats ice cream after dinner, too, but it's not so good for him since he's diabetic. He does it anyway!

  7. I am the same way, I can eat cookies and candy bars all day long and stay the same size. I used to only want "real food" (aka mashed tators and steak) and now i live to eat sugar! I had 3 brownies and a king size bag of m&ms today.

  13. that cone shaped popsicle looks delicious and all this food does look quite pretty.

    i have THE WORST sweet tooth. but lately i've been craving tomatoes + fresh basil + fresh mozzerella. yum. i had all of the above ingredients + pesto grilled sandwiches. a bit healthier than chowing down on the usual ice cream :).
