Food

So the holidays have now started and I just thought I would let you all in on a secret...Well maybe it isn't so much a secret. I love food. Especially sweet stuff. So, the holidays are a such a love v. hate for me. I love all the goodies, but I hate all the extra pounds I put on. Case in point... My sister-in-law Matti provided us with candied yams this year. They were divine. For the recipe check out smithalicious, although I am not sure she has posted the recipe yet. Anyhow, I ate 2 servings at Thanksgiving. That was the only thing I had seconds on. She left me with the leftovers though, which was a big mistake, since I have now eaten them all. Cory helped only slightly and I am not sure I should even count it has helped. But anyhow, if any of you were wondering what happened to the sweet potatoes, now you know. I ate them all. And I am not sorry, although I have gained 4 pounds since last Thursday morning. The worst part of it is that I can't wait for Christmas so I can make candied yams and do it all over again. Hurry up with the recipe already, Matti!
