Subject: RE: BS: X-MAS GIFTS YOU'VE HAD IT WITH!!!
I've got different gifts I've had it with.

Just before I left town for 10 days people at work & another friend gave me: homemade fudge, homemade peanut butter/chocolate balls, homemade toffee, 2 8oz. cans of salted nuts, homemade cherry filled sweetbread, and finally a mammoth gift box with nuts, candy, shortbread, etc.. I put all of these in my tiny freezer while I was gone. For Christmas my sister gave me a 1 lb. box of dark chocolate.

For the 10 days I was gone, I ate all the Christmas stuff that was so encouraged before the holidays.

When I got home I found my cat sitters had left me a plate full of cookies & candy.

At the doctor 2 days after I came home I discovered that I am 10 pounds heavier than I thought I was & 30-40 more than what I want to be. I have never really dieted but thought I'd reached a point of at least not gaining.

I don't know what to do with all this delicious stuff. Fortunately I forgot the pound of candy at my sister's when I was packing, but I still have the nuts & candy. There's always a chance she'll mail it to me as well.

My freezer is too small for me to push the stuff to the back & forget about. I live alone so all this stuff is for me alone. Anyone for a Mudcat party to get rid of all this food we don't need or want?
