Sunday Sweetness.

Hi Y'all,
I have been on a sugar-bender this weekend. You might think "Yeah, I do that occassionally" but I haven't done it in 2.5yrs, since I was diagnosed with Diabetes, cos you can imagine it is probably the worst possible thing for me! But something snapped inside me this weekend and I couldn't help myself {sigh}. Yesterday I went to Parramatta Westfield and I was suckered in by the smell of Kernels popcorn. Oh my heart! The beats picked up when I smelt that warm, sweet, corny, caramel smell and I automatically diverted there like a mouse on a cheese trail!! I got a tiny grab bag (I diverted from my old fave Creamy Creamy Caramel) of a Caramel and Butterscotch combo.... I can't even remember what it was called, just that my one track mind could think of nothing more than getting that corn into my mouth!! That wasn't all, I had already had a Lemon Merangue cupcake for morning tea from Cupcakes on Pitt and bought a Peanut Butter one for later too! Then this morning I went out for brunch with Willy to Zenja Cafe at the old Arnott's factory, North Strathfield, and I had Ricotta Pancakes with Caramelised Banana. And now I have a mound of dough rising near the heater cos I am trying out a recipe I found online for Cinnabon Cinnamon Rolls (you know the American chain that I raved about in a previous post?) WHAT IS WRONG WITH ME?!!! I better have a sensible week this week with lots of exercise and healthy eating to compromise! Although my Pancreas may not think that is much of a compromise. Do you think 2.5yrs without a sugar binge was a good effort?! I'll try to make it another 2.5 years til the next one!!
Will and I did go see Ice Age 3 last night and his Bro got us into Gold Class with popcorn and a Pepsi Max for $6 each. Ha! Bargain!! It was a funny movie, so cute! I love a good laugh, and there were some people in the audience who were outright "gafawwing" at some of the jokes! Lol. There was only one other couple in Gold Class, it was 2 men who talked constantly at normal volume for the whole movie. What?! Whats the point of paying $30 each to talk through the movie? I suggested to Will that they were drug dealers doing a deal somewhere inconspicuous where they could talk freely for 90 mins and not worry about being spotted. You never know! They annoyed me though! Luckily we hadn't really paid for our seats or I would have complained about them!! Or yelled at them to shut up (I would never really do that, but I fantasised about doing it during the movie!)
