The morning after the Thanksgiving Feast for twelve.
Me to Canadian house guest: “I’m so proud of us; we hardly drank anything.”
CHG to me: “I was just thinking how I’d never seen so much alcohol consumed at one sitting!”
Culture, eh?
Accountability – the good things about yesterday:
- Out for lunch, I left a lot of food on my plate because I was full.
- At dinner, I had one plate-full ,(as in covered, not heaping), then stopped.
- By sheer good fortune I had 7 good (large) wine glasses for 8 people so I got the small glass.
- I did have two large non-alcoholic drinks in the middle of the event – slowed down both the eating and the drinking.
- Dessert was 1/12th of a pumpkin pie. I had a bite of something else but threw the rest away when I realised that I was truly not hungry or even craving something sweet.
Now for the next three days.
