See butter, that's why I don't work!

I'm to lazy to actually leave the house and buy donuts... so I'm golden!

And if you can't join 'em - beat 'em at their own game!! Go to the World According to Eggface, and make her Protein Doughnuts, complete with "icing" and "sprinkles" Her pictures are impressive, they look like the real deal and she claims they taste like it too

Glad your day was better.

You know, I feel more than a few twinges of guilt sending my homemade goodies into the office with my husband. Now, in fairness, more than half of them are military and so very active and regularly working out. But yeah...the other day my son wanted cinnamon rolls, so I made a pan the night before to bake in the morning. I set aside one for each family member in the house and sent the remainder in to work with him. So I'm probably contributing to office weight gain for all of his coworkers. I usually bake once a week for them (in the Embassy it was "Cookie Wednesday") so when I don't bake, people ask my husband if I'm doing okay because they think I'm sick.

I mean, on the one hand, I do not expect anyone to eat more than one cookie or once in a while a big treat like a cinnamon roll. But then again, I know that in my fat days I'd have parked my can right by the baked goods and had myself a feast.

I should probably stop. But I really, really enjoy baking. And I don't want it all in the house because it goes to waste - we simply don't eat that much. So, for now, at least, his coworkers have to battle temptation on a weekly basis, and it's all my fault.

Now I feel terrible.

Could you bake for a local shelter or other charity?

........... I know that in my fat days I'd have parked my can right by the baked goods and had myself a feast.

LOL.....yep, thats always my plan as well. Why let baked goodies just sit there? They aren't getting any better with age. And they aren't going to eat themselves.

Mmmm, I had half a chocolate chip cookie from Subway today. It was good, and I deserved it after the emergency room visit.

Yesturday my client was boiling some eggs and forgot about them. I swear it smelt like toast to me.... It smelt pretty good too....I wasn't even stressed that I recall. I do know that when I smell something cooking, I still want to eat even when I'm not hungry...When I am stressed, look out, because I will try an eat the kitchen, if at a restaurant and I'm really hungry, I will still order the biggest meal and can only take a couple of bites......
