If there's food out on trays, coffee tables, counter tops, or ANYWHERE in sight I'm a PICKER! What do I do?? I need a thought process because I'm going to THREE evening Christmas parties in a ROW starting tomorrow night!! Repeating the phrase, "a moment on your lips forever on your hips!!" just isnt working for me!

At my last meeting, the leader asked "now whats a good thought process when you're in this scenario?" and i was thinking "someone answer, I'm dying to know!" However, someone brought up the cake-and-one-can-of-diet-soda recipe and, of course, that completely commandeered the conversation of the meeting and my picking eating habit was quickly dropped from everyones minds.

Help!
