Dig, dig, dig some more-DAY #4

Rate this Entry
Ok, so today I am ravenous!! I had some of those carrot burgers with curry sauce and an apple for breakfast and lunch, and am finding myself just grazing all day like a cow. I guess that is healthy though!!

It was a rough day with the kids (attitude problems, I think they are coming down with some colds...) and by the time I got them in bed and trudged upstairs for the millionth time to tell them to get back in bed, I thought I was going to fall over from hunger. The crusts of their peanut butter and jelly sandwiches were singing sweetly to me. I was getting oh so grouchy. I decided to head to our huge chest freezer and dig around for some blueberries that I just know are buried at the bottom. Dig, dig, dig. Fish. Can't have it. Dig some more. Ravioli, and it isn't the raw kind. Rats. Dig again. A BAG OF FROZEN BANANAS!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!


Can I just tell y'all that I thought I was gonna die of happiness right then and there??!!

I hurried into the house and whipped up banana ice cream with half of one of those huge avocadoes. I know it sounds weird, and I know I have banana ice cream almost every day, but, I tell you- that saved me right there! The cravings and hunger pangs are GONE. Whew. That was close!
