Baby Zig - 12/17/04
On our nut-binge-grocery-trip the evening after Eve’s allergist appointment I grabbed a big bag of mini-Reece’s Peanut Butter Cups (YUM!!) to make cookies that I had been drooling over for many months. We made the cookies, ate too many, ate even more peanut butter cups, and made more cookies. When they were finally gone Lex was very sad and asked me to buy more at the store. I promised him I’d buy him a treat, but silently committed to NOT buy of those candies because I eat way too many of them. Put me in a room with chocolate and peanut butter and I loose all control. It’s really quite sad. Anyway, Eve and I picked up a big bag of pistachios at BJs instead and Lex, my darling Lex, was even more excited about them than the candy! He eats pistachios (and calls them fastachios) at every meal and every snack. Every. Single. One. Can a kid eat too many pistachios? I hope not! I have trouble resisting those too, but not as much trouble and I figure at least they are healthier than candy.
