Before we had determined where we were going for the Super Bowl, my plan was to make a hot artichoke dip for whichever gathering we landed at. Since we ended up going to the party that was over an hour away, we scrapped the dip idea and just grabbed some cold stuff on our way there.
In my quest for something to snack on this afternoon, I remembered (with a good deal of delight) that I had all the ingredients to make this dip. I decided to make it today, with that voice in my head telling me I would only eat a little bit and then put the rest in the fridge (yes, I like it that much).
Well, I am pathetic. I ate the entire dish of dip with a tube of Butter Crisp crackers while I was watching Maury Povich. I don't know what of that last sentence has me in more self loathing. The dip or the show! What an awesome 25 minutes that was. Although, without the crackers and dip, I had to change the channel. My subconscious must relate fattening food with shows that are just as mindless and fattening for the psyche! Could over eating really be that deep?
I doubt it! LOL.

I've done that too- eating dip, not watching Maury Povitch. I have such good intentions when I make tasty food that all just end up going to hell.
You're my kind of girl!!
I think I have made amends today! Stuck to fruit, veggies, trail mix and pumpkin seeds most of the day. Had a mushroom burger for supper - but I don't know if I will make it through the night with that blasted maple nut ice cream grabbing at me everytime I go in the kitchen! ;)
