I'm tempted to not record a food diary tonight.
A dear friend stopped by (a feat, since she lives 1.5 hours away, and the post-Thanksgiving traffic made it over 2 hours!), and brought me a trove of homemade jams and treats.
I haven't laughed as much, or as hard, in at least a year. She is half my age, but we are peers. I performed her marriage ceremony, and am Godmother to her son, who was born on the auspicious date of 11/11/11.
After her gifts to me, I returned the favor by gifting her a pint jar of my home canned corned beef and a jar of apple compote.
I had to sample her gifts...one was muscadine jam (a local sweet grape), and the other was hibiscus flower jam. Both were amazing, but SO high in sugar. :( I will be throwing the rest away, as sugar is the devil in my world.
Being reminded that I have numerous jars of corned beef from 2016, I decided to have corned beef and cabbage for supper. It was SO good, but I was on a sugar high from the jams, so I followed the healthy supper with fig Newtons. Yes, I will deal with swollen ankles for a few days, yes I will see a bump up on the scales, and yes, I will regret the indulgence.
And yet, I will appreciate the kindness of my friend, the sweet flavors of her gifts, and the sweet embrace of her friendship. Tomorrow is another day. Tomorrow is a new beginning on my journey. Be kind, friends. Every day is a new beginning.
Love to you all,
~Kes
