Hmmm. You may have noticed that I have made no mention of Operation Sugar Detox lately. Well, that’s because I suck at it. I fell off the wagon, big-time. This weekend I ate approximately one million Smarties, plus sour bears, margaritas, and (light!) Dulce de Leche ice cream from Haagen Daz (which, by the way, is American! Did you know that? That faux-Dutchish word is just made up!)

Anyway, I am making a valiant effort to cut back on the sugar, road trips notwithstanding. For instance, last night at Whole Foods, I DID NOT buy a box of frozen lime bars. (The next best thing to cherry bars, which I believe are no longer in existence, a fact that makes me v sad indeed, but if I’m going to try to stay away from sugar, perhaps it’s for the best.)

I am proud to say that I’ve switched to whole wheat light bread. I think that’s quite an accomplishment for me. And though I brought a peanut butter sandwich for lunch yesterday and today, I will try to stop that. (Better than buying food out, at least.)
