That is really kind of rude on her part
Makebelieve. Family or not, if you go every year at this point it's just tradition and you should be included in the planning. And a day before is not much heads up. Our grocery store sells out of everything by Tues. I wouldn't have a chance to find anything today! (Ahh, the small town life.) I hope it works our for you and you guys somehow get to eat some turkey!
I'm really trying not to be bummed about my aunt not inviting me, but not much I can do about it other than crash the party. Technically my grandma is living with her so I could say I'm just visiting her, but I'm not going anywhere where I'm not wanted. It's not even about the food at this point. It's about the lack of family respect. She was like a second mom to me growing up and I love her dearly. This is like a massive knife in my back and I haven't even done anything. She's mad at my dad.
Rebelle - no, they did not have any weights on the cake. It was the only option I could find with cream cheese frosting though. I only had a slice and then an even smaller slice yesterday. I'm sure their slices were really really small LOL, so I purposely tripled the calorie count and still didn't sound right, so I added more. Thankfully, I didn't eat much of anything else the last two days. That being said, I've given up on any deficit this week.
I'm super po'd at myself. I'm not giving up, it was a mistake I willingly made and tomorrow is another day and all that jazz. But still. What the heck is up with me???? I seriously couldn't wait three days to pig out???? Coworker gave us all chocolate pies yesterday too. I was like, I'll just go ahead and give it to my grandma. Then I was like, no, the hubby and dad might want some. So I carry it home.... That turns into, well, one taste won't hurt, that turned into one piece, that turned into...... WTH I ate half the pie????? Oh and neither man even likes chocolate pie.
So this morning I trashed it. I'd scrapped all the meringue off so I couldn't really share it at that point. I tasted the sweet potato pie just to see if it was worthy to share, boy is it ever, and then wrapped them up and they are currently at my grandmas waiting to be consumed tomorrow by more than just me, thank GOD!
Lesson learned? I can not be trusted with baked goods in the least and there shall be no more baking at all until I am at 150 lbs LOL. Thanks to the evil of chocolate, I ended yesterday at 2204. :|
Oh boy...... Just let this week hurry up and be over with.
