I’m currently writing this post on the drive down to Savannah (SO excited for our weekend getaway) but doing this in the car is not easy. And not because I get motion sick or anything.. but because I can’t stand not paying full attention to the road even though I’m not the one driving. As annoying as it is for my husband (he should be used to it by now), I am totally a backseat or passenger, in this case, driver. You could be the best driver in the entire world and I would still want to stare directly at the road in the front of us and warn you of any brake lights ahead or anyone getting over in your lane. It’s just how I am and I can’t help it. So as I’m typing away I am also glancing up every once in a while to warn him of any possibility of danger or to tell him to slow down. And now that I’ve confessed that, you probably never want me to ride in your car, ever. I can understand that.

Italian Stuffed Zucchini Boats
Well, the holidays are officially over and it’s time to start cleaning up the diet again. Every single year I tell myself this will be the Christmas where I turn down sweets all together. It never happens, not even close. I said this in my prior post but I’ll emphasize again just how much of a sweets person I am. You can give me salads for dinner every single night if that means I’m getting a piece of chocolate after. So with the holidays it’s not really the meals that get me in trouble as much as it is the delicious baked cookies and cakes that are always available and ready to be eaten. My mom actually packed us up a box full of different cookies to take back home with us and we just decided tonight to throw them away because both my husband and I know that we don’t have the best self control when it comes to that stuff. So our strategy to not eating sweets and other bad things is to not buy it and not have it around the house. It’s worked pretty well for us so far! Until I get an undeniable chocolate chip cookie craving.. and all bets are off. But luckily that doesn’t happen too often.
