I took the kids strawberry picking today at a local strawberry farm, and now we have more strawberries than I know what to do with. I am contemplating turning some of it into freezer jam, or freeze them for later, but I don't have a vacuum freeze dry system, so I think they will end up with freezer burn.
I cleaned half a bucket, offered some to my Mom, contemplated the freezer jam, will incorporate them into my turning seven on Wednesday child's cake as she is the queen of strawberries. But other than that, that's all I got.
I am finding that I have become very stingy with my points at night. I get to dinner, and I have between 15 to 20 to spend. It seems to be my larger meal. I had a tuna salad sandwich tonight with some Cheezits and some strawberries. I had 8 points left!!!! So I splurged on fat-filled dressing and croutons on my Very Veggie salad after a committee meeting tonight.
I need to find another time that I can weigh in this week, but I don't want to go at night as I normally WI in the morning. I don't want to add weight to my loss because I know it will happen. I might just pop in on them during their drop in times on Thursday so I can get it done and over with.
I am appreciating the food choices I am making now. While I crave every once a while something (tonight it was puffy Cheetos), I realize that won't get me where I need to go. And yes, I could use my weekly points for that, but that is silly.
I am tired. I am going to bed.
