Giving It ... 75%???

I was almost there. Giving it the old college try for getting back on track at dinner. I had meatball subs planned for dinner tonight. The husband and daughters had regular meatballs and I went with the Trader Joe's Meatless Meatballs. In trying these for the second time, I have to say they are not my favorite. The texture is soft and the flavor of these guys is just plain bland. I added some of my homemade marinara sauce and a sprinkle of parmesan. It helped, a little. I went with a plain green salad with EVOO and vinegar. An o.k. dinner...



The husband and daughters had tater tots along with their subs and somehow they found their way onto my plate into my mouth! A good handful of them. Ugh! I was almost there; almost back on track.

I cleaned up the dinner dishes and proceeded to make (I know you'll think I have completely lost my mind) chocolate drizzled popcorn!! I was adding it to big daughter's basket of goodies to bring to the teachers. Did I have to do it?? Could I have gotten away with not adding it to the basket?? I think I know the prize winning answers to these questions, however, I get myself on these dumb kicks and then I have to finish it out. So, I made the chocolate drizzled popcorn using lowfat popcorn of course! Isn't that so ridiculous - like it matters - it's covered in chocolate!! Anyway, it came out very good. Don't ask me how I know... :(
