Joelle is on the far left. The bridesmaids were sooooo tired after the wedding. |
It's 9:30 and Linda is home from her Care Team/Practice Thanksgiving meal. You remember Linda is off sugar for awhile right? Well, Joelle made homemade pumpkin and caramel ice cream. Joelle makes great desserts and she usually brings a vegetarian dish to the meeting every month too. Pumpkin ice cream is Linda's favorite flavor. (Carrot Cake ice cream would be her real favorite, but I don't think that is a doable flavor.) There was also a chocolate peanut butter looking pie that looked amazing. Her resolve held though and she did not even take a bite. It made her a little sad that she didn't have any, but it's for the best. Linda is a lot like Chimmie when it comes to treats. One bite is never enough. A tiny teaspoon taste of the ice cream would have crumbled her resolve to eat clean for the next month. She had a salad at the dinner and then grilled fish, and steamed veggies when she got home. Maybe Joelle will make ice cream again for another meeting. (Peppermint for Christmas hint..hint??) Hopefully, in the coming days Linda's body will be detoxing from all the junk, sugar, dairy and white foods shes been eating the past months. Only 18 more days to go.
