I splurged and ate my homemade chocolate ice cream with my homemade hot fudge sauce. It was so delicious I could hardly believe it. I think it's really a good thing that I can't eat this stuff at the drop of a hat by running over to the Jewel and getting a pint of Ben & Jerry's... and not just from the standpoint of calories. When I DO eat ice cream, it tastes so delicious it's just heavenly. Remember -- the ice cream and hot fudge I make has only a few ingredients, and it's real sugar, real eggs, organic lactose-free dairy -- no corn syrup and no thickeners or emulsifiers. So you can't keep it for very long, but it is so tasty you don't really want to eat commercial stuff any more once you've eaten the real thing.
Anyway, I really enjoyed HCB's journal entry from 10-3 about buying new tops. Yesterday, I saw a pair of pants in the window at Ann Taylor Loft, and I thought, what the heck -- go in and try them on. Turned out the Ann Taylor pants fit like a glove in a size 14, so I totally splurged and bought 4 pair: black, grey, camel, and brick red. These will get me through until February, when I'm hoping the size 12s that are put away in the basement will fit me. But I felt so good in those pants! Hooray.
P.S. I'm not worried about the ice cream splurge because I have to spend Thursday on a liquid diet and won't be able to eat anything on Friday until after the colonoscopy so I don't think the ice cream calories will matter much.
