Brown Sugar

What is it about pregnancy that makes you throw out all self-control and reason when it comes to food, or brown sugar? When I was pregnant with my second child I ran out of sugar foods and suddenly that brown sugar in my cupboard was irresistible. I took a bite, then another and another and finally I just filled a bowl and savored it. Completely crazy right? But it sure felt logical at the time.

Today my kids wanted oatmeal for breakfast. A healthy choice for them, for me, pure temptation. I have to admit I ate more brown sugar than oatmeal. It is a good thing I bought that bag of Butterfingers tonight.
