I had a Christmas party at work today. It was a potluck and there were plenty of temptations. In the end I picked a plate full of veggies with fat free yogurt dip (the dish I contributed) and about a quarter of a cup of pasta. Pretty good considering there were caramel brownies there, yeah, I resisted, but i did smell them, and pine...
Then I came home and ate more veggies, some grapes, a small plate of midwest white girl tai style cucumbers with red chili paste and about a cup of brown rice. I am now suffering from fiber overload. My tummmy is bloated and no more water will fit. sheesh.
Now I am baking cupcakes, a friend turned 36 this week and we have a party planned tomorrow night. This party is annual blowout, lots of friends and coworkers get together and a good time is had by all. So I offered to bring the baked awesome this year. I do not plan on eating any of them. All 24 will make it to the party tomorrow, iced with pecan coconut fosting. So tomorrow when I arrive at the party I'll not only be 24 cupcakes heavy, I'll be 41 pounds lighter than last year when I went to the same shindig.

Cupcakes are such a huge problem for me. Jacob used to sign me up for cupcakes whenever they had a class party at school, but I finally told him "No more cupcakes! You can take chips from now on." LOL Forty one pounds smaller than last year - that is just AWESOME! Have fun at the party!
Thai style cucumbers? I'd love the recipe! Sweets are never the problem for me. It's always the meatballs, dips, Mac and cheese. If I can eat that I can skip sweets!
