Baking Is Evil

and I have such problems saying NOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO.

It comes out as a half hearted ... *squeak* "no?"

pathetic eh? LOL

The day started off real well, out for a lovely walk this morning - it was still, dry and warm! Well about 8 degrees which feels quite tropical compared with what we've been having LOL

I had a good day out and about the office and then came home for home made hamburgers delish! My day was sitting on 22 points ... until ... I started baking

a lick of chocolate here, a lollie, piece of chocolate, rumball, guzzle of liquer *sigh* with each taste, lick or bite Craig my dear heart was busily counting them up point by point - I think he stopped at about 30 *double sigh*.

Thankfully I dont bake often! My baking is for a mid winter "christmas" dinner this Saturday night ...

I keep telling myself ... I'm going to enjoy it for the company, seeing our old friends that we havent seen for ages ... its not just about the bbq chicken nibbles, chippies & dip, nuts, cheese & crackers, roast pork & chicken with all the trimmings and the steamed pudding with brandy butter, custard, cream, apple strudel, rumballs or shortbread. ITS NOT!

LMAO

I so know what you are saying mate... as I was like that at our Mid Winter family party we had on Saturday! Kept telling myself it wasn't about the food - but more about the catching up with family and their friends! Didn't really work for me though :( But you have more will power than I do! :)
