I’m conducting an informal test. As you saw last night, I had cupcakes in the house again. Every night this week I would take out my cupcakes for dessert and when I finished I craved more. It didn’t satisfy my sweet tooth as much as ignite it! Yikes. However, one square of Lindt chocolate usually satisfies my sweet tooth.
My experiment is that I have a few different dessert options and I’m going to mindfully eat them. Do they all make me NEED more? I’m gonna try different desserts each night and to see how I react. Right now in the house we have peppermint Dryers ice cream, pumpkin bread, Lindt Dark Chocolate and some Dove Dark Chocolate peppermint bark. (anyone notice a theme?) I’ll try to report in on how it goes! (I'm terrible at reporting in)
Another adventure I embarked on today was to improve my photography. I have been trying to work on my photos and so I realized that I need a tripod! I’m excited to keep testing it out! I wonder if I should bring it to Dan’s races. it may just be a pain there!
I brought home the tripod in time for a lunch photo shoot. Here are the highlights!
For my PB&J I used PB&Co Dark Chocolate Dreams and some All natural strawberry preserves on Arnold’s 100 calorie bread.
What do you think? Backing up a little. For breakfast (pre-tripod) I made a big bowl of oats.
The oats included
- a little pumpkin bread
- pumpkin pie spice
- a small handful of chocolate
- 2 servings of chia seeds
- 1 packet of Justin’s Nut Butter Maple Almond Butter.
Yum! I was looking around the other day and noticed that Justin’s Nut butter has a link to Fat Buster on their site. How fun!
For someone that doesn’t really like peanut butter I sure had a lot of nut butter today!
Well this is an early entry because I’m off to get ready for tonight! (and tomorrow, I have to make a sweet Spanish inspired brunch item….any ideas?)

Oooh yah I like photo #2 a lot! Spanish brunch item....you could do a spanish flared fritatta. Hard to keep it fresh and warm if you're taking it somewhere though. My brain is spent on food creativity today ;)
you have a point and shoot right?

is it a big tripod? or a small desktop tripod? would love to hear more about it!
