And now, a post about food I shouldn't be eating anyway

So my mom made me watch the "Debt Diet" episode of Oprah while I was home sick, and so every time I want to buy something I don't need, I repeat "Debt Diet" in my head, and that's been helping me not buy useless things. And dessert food I don't need. But it doesn't say anything about letting my boyfriend buy me things.

We went to Van Gogh's last night to hear Jacob Callis play. The dessert of the day was a "Chocolate Chip Tart" - a warm chocolate chip Tollhouse cookie shell with a hot fudge center, paired with a scoop of vanilla ice cream and whipped cream. Never was there invented a better dessert for a woman on her period. It was delicious. I want another one right now, in fact. Gahhhhh.

Which leads up to the fact that today Dave said "I think I'll make a Jamba Juice run today at lunch," and I said, "Okay!" I'm not very good at this Debt Diet thing. At all.

BEEHIVE KNIT HATS WITH CHINSTRAPS. I am so making one.

Oh, and check out the background on the Knitting page, as it's very neato. Or at least I think so.
