sweets.

I was going through the photos on my phone just now and I came across this photo I took around this same time last year of a picked apart piece of carrot cake. seeing this picture reminded me of all of the sweet treats I have already enjoyed and all that I will surely consume in these next few months. baking season is definitely upon us. I hope you have more self control than I do.

carrot cake is one of my favorites ;)

day four.

on Sunday I started what will be a seven day cleanse. today is day four and I am so proud of myself for making it this far!

it.has.been.TOUGH. with family in town, summer bbqs in full swing and a new froyo obsession (which is hard to control under normal circumstances) my self discipline and control are really being put to the test. three more days! it's going to take all of the willpower I can muster up to not order the biggest pizza I can find and eat it all by myself this coming Sunday ;)

mashed apples.

food is one of the many things that I love. I really enjoy it. people say I eat like a bird (which is true) and therefore I'm usually the last one finished with a meal, but there's a reason for that...I savor each and every bite. always, no matter what.  I've been making an effort this year to eat fresh. be healthy. snack wise. today I was craving applesauce so I decided to make some. I love cooked apples. LOVE them. I bought a bag of Fuji apples, cooked them on the stove, added some cinnamon and ate away! a super easy simple snack. yum.

so simple. so good.
