I must brag about my extreme willpower last night. As you know, I’m on the activities committee at work. Our SPD (not to be confused with STD) festivities will kick off with breakfast for the office. We’re serving Lucky Charms…cute, eh? One committee member when to the store and purchased 10 gallons of milk, bowls, and spoons. Another purchased Bennigan’s gift cards for drawings throughout the day. What did Coco Faboo get stuck with? Buying 16 boxes of Lucky Charms at Wally World! I looked like a damn freak in the store. People kept eyeing my basket and I just shrugged my shoulders and smiled (while mumbling obscenities under my breath).
Cereal isn’t a big deal to me. I’ll be eating my normal (healthy) breakfast like a trained (chubby) seal. The temptation? I also had to pick up 10 dozen Loft House frosted cookies. If you don’t know about them, consider yourself lucky. These little bastards are the devil. Seriously…Lucifer’s snacks. Enough sugar to put anyone into a coma…and I used to eat an entire dozen in a few minutes. Oy vey…
So…I had to spend the night with Luckies and Lofties. I’m not trying to be dramatic *ahem*, but I swear the cookies talked to me last night. I ignored them and emerged this morning victorious! :::cue Eye of the Tiger CD:::
Special shoutout to my fellow “spirited” folks…WW created a nice little chart for us. Print it…laminate it…put it in your purse/wallet…take it out during happy hour and calculate everyone’s drink. Life of the Par-tay.

I know those damned cookies. The first time I tasted them, I thought they tasted like sugar and lard mixed together. Not a pleasant thing..yet I kept eating them..and nibbling…and tasting…and the taste of sugar and lard grew on me, literally and figuratively until I had consumed most of the package! Your are indeed a strong woman! Happy SPD!

I adored this entry. “Lucifer’s snacks!” That cracked me up–especially since I know of the cookies you’re talking about. They’re so, so difficult to resist. Kudos. =)
