I have nobody to blame by myself.
When we go to the outlet mall, we get her some sugar. It’s assumed.
In my defense, we don’t go often but every once in a while we do go and have a look around and usually come out with more sugar in our bloodstream than when we went in.
Today we were there with Abuela as there’s a store she likes to visit while here and across the aisle is a candy store that sells nothing but weird overpriced candy so it’s an easy few minutes to kill while we leave abuela alone to shop in peace.
Once the novelty of the candy store waned, we tossed a few quarters in the gumball machine and now we’re the proud owner of a bouncy ball that will probablyy meet it’s demise after it goes through the dog and I find it in the yard.
The tradition is we go to Yogen Fruz and we get her a frozen yogurt. Healthy yes? Um..not really. Because then we top it with sugary candy so the nutritional balance skews to the unhealthy end of the chart.
Here’s a photo:
Not the best, but it is the end of summer so what’s one last treat yes?
After we got home, she went and found a friend to wear off all that sugar so in the end it worked all out..
Except, the day wasn’t done yet.
Tonight with Abuela here she made us a diner pie for dessert
Banana Cream to be exact:
Lookout bloodstream! Here comes more sugar!
And OMG did the sugar hit afterwards. She was inside singing at the top of her lungs and eventually we just sent her outside to sing and play with sticks or something, anything - get out of the house!
So…ya. The sugar count was a little higher than planned today.
Tomorrow, it’s carrot soup for her breakfast.
Me? I’ll have another slice of that pie.
Until Next Time,
TH and Co.
