Tuesday, Feb. 2, 2010

I can tell I'm losing this week. I can feel it. Well, that and also my wedding ring just fell right off my finger while I was talking with my hands. Well, that and I all of a sudden noticed how loose my pants are. Well....that and I put my hands on my hips during my step aerobic workout and felt a waist...talk about surreal! Yeah....I can feel it. It feels really good. :)

My challenge today was rice pudding....not just any rice pudding. I'm talking old Spanish recipe from my great grandmother Jualita type of rice pudding. It's made with a ton of butter, cream and sugar. My mom made some and invited me over. I don't remember ever eating this decadent desert during my childhood so I wasn't expecting much. I pretty much thought it was because it must be horrible and I will remember that as soon as I take a small taste of it. O M G....it was beyond yummy...I'm talking a serious slice of buttery creamy heaven...unbelievable. I cannot for the life of me think of why I didn't like it as a kid. Anyway, I had 1/4 cup, enjoyed it and counted the points for it. I'm glad I didn't take my mom's offer of taking the rest home. It would have been a HUGE temptation to have to try to deal with. No thanks.

Speaking of temptations...my dark chocolate bar is still in my desk drawer untouched. It's so weird to me how I can devour anything that remotely looks, smells or tastes like a pastry...but not even be remotely interested in a perfectly decadent dark chocolate bar. Very weird....
