Subconscious Sabotage

At this time of year I have come to terms with treats and indulgences. I do not feel guilty having wine and cheese with my friends or tasty desserts with festive holiday sprinkles. I have to live like this for the rest of my life and my life contains treats.

Yesterday I inadvertently treated myself to something bad though. On a visit to Starbucks for a hot chocolate, I forgot to order non-fat milk. As I crossed Charles Street into the beautifully decorated Public Garden I sipped my treat and realized quickly it was full fat.

It was delicious but I did chastise myself for not being more thoughtful. That hot chocolate would have been just as good a treat made with skim milk.
