Sub This For That! Easter Edition

So tonight after a long eventful day, (well for me anyhow) I found myself sitting on the couch hearing the Easter candy calling my name from the kitchen.

So instead of giving in to temptation, I thought I would make a game of it. I now found myself with my hands on my head above my ears, sticking my tongue out while saying "nah, nah, boo, boo I WIN!" right in temptations face.

"What did I do?", you ask. Well, I sprang from the couch...haha as fast as my knee injury would let me. Which is about as fast as a nine month pregnant lady our a ninety year old lady (get the picture yet?). I got my hind-parts off the couch and checked my produce stash, the fridge, freezer and pantry. What was I looking for you might ask...well, I was looking for a yummy sweet healthier version of the Easter candy that was beckoning me OH so loudly from the kitchen.

So instead of eating starburst "fruit" candies I took two containers of organic blueberries (Thanks Rawfully Organic Co-op!), about eight large strawberries and some almond milk and threw them in my blender for a tantalizing treat.

Now, I find myself satisfied, full,happy and gloating over my low fat win.

Jenny - 2 points, Easter candy - 0. WINNING!
