valentine's day is two weeks away - and you know what that means. after holiday candy sales.
yes, it's right on the heels of the big 75% of christmas sale (let me tell you - those bon bons were fabulous, as were the belgian chocolates and the cookies. all of 'em). please tell me what sense it makes to stick so religiously to a diet that when you hear the words "south beach" you bow your head in homage, and then...and then...someone makes a holiday 13 layer chocolate torte and suddenly you lose your religion. for many weeks. but it happens...
i decided just today that it's time to get back down to business before i regain every bit of what i lost. i went grocery shopping and bought all the necessary items to help get started again, and then i noticed the candy aisle. it's so pretty! and there was even a selection for coffee lovers - coffee filled bon bons, something else, and chocolate covered coffee beans - or zoomers, as i call them. and THEN there were chocolates filled with tiramisu cream. my god, how's a girl supposed to have willpower when she's faced with all that?!
but there comes a time, gosh darn it, when you just have to do it.
saw something else really cute while i was in the store...a valentine's gift set that has some kind of hot sauce and a habenaro sauce in it, called "burning love". that was absolutely brilliant, and i shall be first in line to buy the pack, just because of its name.
and now, it's time for <spit> plain yogurt and strawberries. in a few weeks, it'll be a treat, but right now...
well. you know.
