listersgirlLast night, to continue the trend, I ate pie while watching Taking It Off. Really tasty pie. With apples, and raspberries, and I'm pretty sure I ran across some rhubarb. Anyway, the point is, I did feel a slight twinge of guilt about eating pie in front of these people who are working so hard to lose weight. And then I remembered they couldn't see me, so really, it's okay. And there's nothing wrong with eating pie while watching people use a treadmill, right? Right?
The thing is, fruit pie is really the most wonderful food ever. Oh sure, I flirt with other desserts, occasionally succumbing to a craving for cheesecake or things covered in caramel, and good ice cream will always make me happy, but pie, simple unaffected pie, that's the pinnacle of good things. I may forget, but pie always reminds me.
And I'm thinking that the tone of the last paragraph there might give me a hint as to why I can't manage to stop eating dessert.
Tomorrow: Books! Wonderful, fabulous books! (or at least that's the plan, assuming I remember to bring the piece of paper to work so that I'm not making titles up out of my head)
