Today I will put myself to the test.  Our neighborhood picnic is tonight.  I have to bring a dessert.  The only thing in my fridge dessert worthy is a premade-roll of Pillsburry Chocolate Chip cookies.  Easy, but unhealthy.  I decided against dragging the kids to the market to get something else. Will I be able to resist raw cookie dough?  yes.  Will I be able to resist warm and gooey chocolate chip cookies?  That, I don’t know.  I go through my day pumped about the diet and thinking about how I will fill up at the picnic.  Salads, fruit, grilled chicken, passing on the white bun if there is one, etc.  Well.  If only my imagination came true.  There was only one healthy thing there: frozen fruit.  ick.  I’m all for frozen fruit in a smoothie, but defrosted and slimy fruit?  No thanks.  I fed the kids, and had one fried drumstick as my cheat.  I was so annoyed by the fact that there was nothing healthy there, I didn’t want to eat anything at all.  My cookies were a hit, even with the grease soaking through a double-bagged lunch bag.
