A Sweet Fast

I'm trying something. No sweets (that means desserts) for the next 3 weeks except on Sabbaths. I figure it takes about 3 weeks to form a new habit, so that's why I picked that time frame. I've just finished the first day and all I've been thinking about is desserts. Dessert for breakfast, dessert for lunch, and dessert for supper. Or maybe dessert for an afternoon snack. A bowlful of blueberries did not help!

I am planning to reward myself once I finish the 3 weeks. If I am successful, I shall buy the next season of my favourite DVD series (7th Heaven) and treat myself with that.

Once I've conquered the sweets craving, I shall work on my Vegenaise craving. I think that's a lost cause, but at 90 calories a tablespoon, I really have to find a way to cut down and replace! I found an expensive tahini sauce at Trader Joe's which I'm going to try to replicate at home. The main ingredients are tahini, lemon juice, water and citric acid.
