Just a journal for the 'record books' so to speak. Went to the Ladies Christmas Tea last night. Was planning to eat dinner before going...but the best laid plans got derailed. HOWEVER, my dearest friend was thinking of me, and she basically tailored her table to my way of eating!
What more of a blessing do you need in this world, than a friend who thinks of you, and your special needs...in an event such as this!
Wow! I had a blast! I enjoy a cup of Decaf Earl Grey...with a Strawberry, Blackberry and Raspberry fruit cup topped w/ real whipped cream. Then two slices of rolled Roast Beef, and one slice of Swiss Cheese. YUM! Then, I had 8-10 raw, fresh string beans w/ a curry (mayo based) dip. And finished with 2 deviled eggs!
By the time her table was served... Sweet Treats! I was nearly full, and well in control..and just smiled and said 'No thank you."
That felt good. Really Good. And as I parted for the night I asked her, did you purposely plan these menu items ??? and she said... yeah, I have been paying attention for the last year or two... you have been so faithful, I didn't want to 'overly' tempt you - especially after you described your indulgence nightmare from Thanksgiving!
God I love her!
Very Grateful for : My dear friend!
