Now people who know me know I've got a very short attention span for driving (I enjoy it and then *woops* now I'm done) so was muttering to myself about people who live On the Peninsula instead of in town like normal mortals. But having been out there, I get it. It's quite something. They live on a little orchard which, while perched above the highway, is not in sight of the highway. Somehow the highway falls into a valley and what you do see is the lake on the other side of the highway but no cars at all. Can't hear them either. So it's orchard, green bit, lake. Luverly. And lovely dinner and desserts (with requisite cheesecake).
Of course I ate too much. Potlucks are my nemesis! If food is there I eat and I do not stop until it is gone. So if I do something silly like bring Kettle Chips into my house, I put them in a small bowl and, leaving the bag in the kitchen, take the small bowl into the tv room as I know I'm too idle to get up again. I also know I've got no self-control when it comes to grease and salt and butter and sugar so make sure I have small portions, then try to walk away. Potlucks though, there's no escape!!
Plus there was cheesecake. :mad: Tomorrow it's mashed bananas and yogurt for breakfast and lettuce with orange juice dressing (nothing else, just oj) on top. I refuse to buy a whole new set of clothes in a different size so as soon as my clothes start feeling tight I cut back. And go to the gym. Damn you middle-age and your weight-gaining properties!
