Easter is Evil

I had SUCH a bad week in terms of eating healthy.  Well, last week, I mean.  The week began with the celebration of Passover.  I ate FAR too many hard boiled eggs.  For some reason my Mom always makes hard boiled eggs and we pass them around with the Green Vegetable that is part of the seder.

There's always plentiful desserts and all sorts of yummy things to eat at Passover.  At least at my house, it's sorta like "Jewish Thanksgiving."  Wine, several courses, matzah galore...  not to mention the fact that we had a seder two nights in a row.  So that was the bad start to the week right there.

Thursday of last week was my BIRTHDAY!  So of course I wasn't planning on eating healthy that day either.  We went to Friendly's (my personal fav hehe) and got all kinds of fried noms that Dr. Oz wouldn't approve of.  And umm yeah we got a big ice cream cake too.  :)  By the way, Danny got me the BEST present - Pride and Prejudice on DVD!!  I've wanted this damn movie for YEARS now and nobody had ever gotten it for me.  But Dan finally did and I've watched it at least 5 times since then.  YAY DANNY!

OK so after that, you'd think I'd have had my fill of bad foods and stuff.  But no.  Sunday was EASTER!  Dan and I went to the movies, I had wayyy too much popcorn.  Then we came back and it was time for Easter Dinner, and I managed to polish off my plate of roast pork and mashed potatoes.

But I have an ISSUE with Easter.  Easter is Evil.  Why?  Because all the treats for Easter are SO BAD!  I mean, sure, you could say Christmas has a ton of 'naughty snacks' too.  But Christmas I associate more with sugar cookies and gingerbread.  However, Easter is known for chocolates filled with creamy things.  Like cream.  Or peanut butter.  Or caramel.  And the BEST Easter candies are the HUGE bunny chocolate things.  Of course now that it's the day AFTER Easter, all these naughty chocolates are 50% off and my Mom bought a bunch.  TO TORTURE ME!  *cry*
