I was VICTORIUS! LOL
I went grocery shopping after work last night at Wal-mart.
I had my printed out list with only the essentials of what I need
and that is all that was in my cart in the checkout line.
There was a young couple in front of me and the wife left and
came back holding a cake that was making me drool, and making
me really hungry! Since their cart was full, she held it (as if
saying, "Look what I got!"...LOL....
It was a frozen ice cream banana split cake. It was beautiful!
It showed a sliced piece on the label, and it had chocolate,
vanilla and strawberry ice cream in it. It was covered in
drizzled chocolate and had cherries on top.
I wanted to run across the store and put one in my cart too!
However, I kept my feet planted firmly where they were.
I was VICTORIUS! LOL
(Well, maybe not completely as I am obviously stil thnking about it this afternoon )

Congratulations on a tremendous display of strength!! You also did not grab it out of her hands and run!! LOL!!
Travel light. The baggage of the past can only hold you back.

Way to stand firm in the face of deliciousness. It would've been hard for me to resist, too.

Good for you. If you aren't on a diet, why don't you bake a yummy cake from scratch to reward yourself for good behavior LOL.
