Days 36-41 - I Was Fooled! and other tales

41 days. But as you will learn, all is not as it seems. You see, I went away camping for awhile and I brought with me some granola bars for the kids. Now I had read the ingredients from an associated brand and gotten it mixed up with this one and thought that it had no wheat in it. So I ate those little granola bars for several days until my wife saw me eating one and pointed out that it did indeed have wheat in it.

DISCOURAGING! But hardly the end. I stopped eating those and will up my diligence in checking labels.

Things I am proud of:

My daughter's 5th birthday. I made cupcakes for her. Turquoise and white cake, raspberry flavored with purple white chocolate icing. And I ate nary a one.

Her party was tea party themed and we had finger sandwiches, which I made dozens of, as well as bacon/turkey croissants for the adults. Again, I ate none of them.

My wife has hopped on board the no wheat train. She was initially very derisive of the whole notion so it feels nice to inspire.

That's it, really.
