December 1 and all the leftovers are gone

Dec 1, 2024

FINALLY, we’ve eaten the last of the Thanksgiving leftovers. The only thing we didn’t finish off was the mashed potatoes and those went in the trash this evening.

We had a little help…

All the puppies had their fair share of noodles, ham and turkey. And they took more than their fair share of naps. 🙂

Katie had leftovers once and Ben came home at lunch to eat a turkey salad sandwich twice. I’ve eaten something almost every waking hour since Thanksgiving. It’s not the holiday meal that devastates a diet — it’s getting rid of all those darned leftovers that get you.

Tomorrow is Monday and I’m back to Weight Watchers to get the 3-5 pounds I’ve gained back off.

I hope it disappears just as quickly as yesterday’s snow…
