Enjoy Small Treats

I {heart} holiday treats.  There is just something about them this time of year.

And with the greeting card rush over, the custom holiday treat label orders are coming in.

I’m trying my best not to be diet-naughty.

But when I am creating a label that says, “The White Family’s Cookies and Cream Fudge.”

All I can think about is “The White Family’s Cookies and Cream Fudge.”

Even relatively healthy labels, like the above, “Peach Pineapple Preserves” get me.

While I was creating this label, I didn’t think, “Oh, those would be lovely on seven grain whole wheat bread.”

My mind defaults to a buttery Williams-Sonoma holiday scone.

It just happens.  It’s something about this time of year. I swear.

Yet, just when my guilt was beginning to eat at me, the following quote landed on my desk.

“One of the secrets to a happy life is continuous small treats.” -Iris Murdoch

And it made sense…and eased my guilt.

Ladies, let’s diet together after the New Year. For now, enjoy small treats.

Happy Treating,
