Peaches and Cream...

So the truth is that I (too) often hear people say that they will not have a blog because people just put things on them to show off! So, let me begin by apologizing if I seem to "show off". I tend to turn a blind eye to show offs... so I wouldn't realize it if I committed this offense! Next, I blog to remind myself of the great things that carry me through the rough times... and heaven only knows that we all have those! If I felt worthy to remind myself of a terrible, horrible, no~good, very bad, day it would be because one day I would look back and "show off" how much stronger I became from living through that awfulness... I would like my trade mark to be that I am DRAMA free! Which means that I can't focus much on drama... therefore, From here on out, I am declaring that my life is not all peaches and cream... but I sure like to reminisce of the days that it is... and remind myself that it can be. After all, I am a firm believer that Heavenly Father blessed us with all of this for the building of our happiness... And NOBODY will ever convince me otherwise.
I declare that I pride myself in only eating ALL health food and that the very moment my spirit leaves my mortal bod, that shell will rot before it gets to the morg... just because there are absolutely NO preserves in it... NOPE... ALL NATURAL! I must be the vision of health and wellness that every person on this planet covets! My skin is creamy... it is a mirror image of my inner health. My crimson squooshy lips and naturally Rosy cheeks are a dead give away of my fair and natural beauty. My fingers never swell. My stomach never bloats... and my sweat (which I do sweat~ only during my 14 mile run each morning) smells sweet like morning dew. My lifestyle is made up of PEACHES and CREAM!
But if this were not true, then maybe I have polished off about 17 batches of hot cocoa since Ms. DOMESTIC DIVA Ayalla shared her liquid love recipe with moi... especially with one of Sugar Mama's own homemade cranberry white chocolate cookie delights.... and maybe I can't lay off the cheese ball that Debbie brought over... and possibly the one that the HAHA and Handsome Hubby gifted is wearing well on my thighs. Usually, I can stop after the cheese ball and crackers are polished off... (although I ate HaHa's cheese ball off a fork, no cracker!) I typically have NO difficulty sniffing out the calories in the amazing goodies that are baked up and dropped off as Christmas cheer! But I feed most of them to my children with no problem... (HEHEhehhe....) Tonight when I got home from the family party, there were goodies ~O~ plenty greeting my arrival: bread, hip builders and chocolate covered pretzels, soup, and cookies... muffins and brownies... and they were from the kindest people: probably gifting for a family home evening activity...(which makes them taste better~) I don't quite know who to thank for some of them. I know two Willis families. They are both amazing people! One of them brought me bread, though I don't know which one... So, I thank you! And a plate of hip builders and choc pretzels, muffins and brownies... My gratitude to MS. (this is a gender related gift, hence the MS. and not MR.) anonymous! One small prob with such a delicious offering.... at my family party this evening I ate too many carbs which = the craving of more carbs. So tonight I went ahead and put the kids to bed and then I had my own tea party... and I do declare that the hip builders were spectacular! (they did their job= built up my hips) As were ALL of the choc. covered pretzels! I will save the bread for morning with my orange juice! Please don't laugh next time you see me... I am constipated and over weight, feeling fat and ever so happy! This is a continuation of why I love Christmas! (Even peache and cream are in season during the holidays!)
I had one of my favorite friends tell me (in years past) "don't bring your crap over to my house!" (meaning, Christmas treats) And though I love her dearly, I disagree something fierce with her on this topic! Bring your treats of love and kindness to me... bring hers to me too! And thank you... from the bottom of my heart! My dear friend, you will look way better in your jeans than me only until we get to heaven! That's because my life is made up peaches and cream... and in heaven, I expect nothing but peaches and cream in a celestial realm!

Oh how I enjoy the ramblings of Miss Meecham! Even at 2:00 in the morning! Yes I'm suffering from Christmas late night itis which explains why I'm still up in the wee hours just to catch up on some blogging:). You never disappoint...so clever and witty and right on the mark! Thanks for making it worth it for me to stay up:)!

Hey hasn't anyone told you yet that all christmas goodies if they are given to you are calorie free? Yes its true they are somehow made calorie free once they pass from the givers hands to the receivers hands. That means you can enjoy to your hearts content
PS SugarMama is my sister, I know she can't make cookies like I do.

Oh that you had run the 2 miles to Dr. Dever's office yesterday,(in 28minutes waited 40 minutes to be seen, and then had to run the 2 miles back to my house.(in 27 minutes) I think my hip went back out. Then you would truly be filled with peaches and cream as I am, even though I can barely walk. I need goodies for sustinence.

I think the sugar is getting to me... what Jo Dee... You are NOT SUGAR MAMAM?! I Thought Sugar Mama was actually more like sugar MAMAMS (plural) and that you were atleast 1/3 of that beautiful creation... but if that not be the case, I have completely mis-represented you and I offer my most sincere appology... The cookies (yes~ one for each of us) were enjoy by me... all of them... with my hot cup O' cocoa... and then breakfast the next A.M. and lunch later that day. Thank you... Thank you!

Glad you are enjoying the hot chocolate. You may thank my amazing Grandmother who raised her very large family in frigid Pennsylvania. Our family has enjoyed this recipe for a VERY VERY long time!
