I think my barbecuing madness really contributed to the problem. We have these fantastic burgers that have bacon and cheese already in the patty. Well, I can't say that I'll have just one. That would not show my appreciation for such a delicacy. Besides, I often don't have a bun with it. Well, at least not the second one, so that makes it better, right? And if there are hot dogs, I need to test to make certain that I did them right. You know, one of the hardly singed ones to make certain that they are thoroughly cooked and then one of the more burnt and split-open ones since they are my favorite and the kids don't truly appreciate them.
Then there's the ice cream. Freddy's had a fantastic sale that Janelle's discount only made better. How can I say no to children who ask for ice cream on a summer day? And since there's sugar, I need to slather on the peanut butter (natural crunchy) to not only add that salty taste, but to add more protein. That should make it healthy-ish.
I think it might be a good thing that I've had to be back to work this past week.
