Drinkingoutofjars

It's my new thing.

I may change the whole blog to center around that, honestly, instead of just focusing on my diet-thang. Because, really, I have a lot more to talk/write/ramble about.

I'm going to need a pretty rad collection of jars

(that should go a little something like this...)

I will not drink out of jars that I put lights in if that's what you are worried about.
I cannot wait to have my own house (read: place to live that is entirely and/or mostly mine - does not have to be an actual house - will most likely be an apartment) to decorate. I'm really swimming with ideas of what I want a house to look like and I'm ready to put my thoughts into action.

Unfortunately for me, time is not on my side with this. Sorry Mick.

Weekend recap:

I went to LA Friday-Saturday to help feed/serve homeless people on skid row. We worked at the LA Rescue Mission and got to serve dinner Friday night & breakfast Saturday morning.

Besides all of the emotional/spiritual/relational awesomeness that happened during the trip, avoiding sugar and starch went very well, too. I was able to pick noodles out of my lasagna at dinner and had fruit and scrambled eggs for breaky.

And when I got home and weighed Sunday morning I was actually 2lbs down from Friday's weight.

Now don't go getting too excited about it, though. I messed all that up nice&good Sunday evening. But it was worth it. I celebrated some good news with some lovely Downtown Disney coffee drinks and my friend Matt who was more than helpful in my decision to "cheat" on the diet.

I am not very good at using my camera phone, obviously.

So of course the 2lbs I lost came back, but I was prepared for it and can actually handle it because I wasn't planning on them being gone so suddenly anyway. Life is too short to pass up celebrations, and I'm too aware of what's going on with my eating habits to be afraid of a little indulgence now and then.

By the way, does anyone know how to spell cinnamon? ( <--- Is that right??)

Cinnamon

Cinammon

Cinnammon

Cinemon

Sinamen

Synuhmon

I think I forgot how. But almond bread should never be eated without it.
