January Junk Food Dump

(Weird post title, I know. Bear with me.)

So, it's January. Which means for many people, including me, it's time to get back on that ol' healthy eating wagon. 

Yep. Off the floor, on the wagon. 

Yeah. And everyone goes:

And thus begins the annual month long exercise of bringing junk food to the office. AKA the January Junk Food Dump. 

I mean, I get it. Full disclosure: I've done this in the past to get junk food out of my own house. But it suuuuuucks. 

Wahhh. I really need to go cold turkey on the junk food, so there's no little "treats" for me. And of course, there are always coworkers like this:

The metabolically blessed. GLARE. 

Sigh. Hopefully the junk time is winding down. Til then, I have to #staystrong

I still don't understand how that's not a winning argument.

Did you all have a good holiday?

Before Boyfriend came over Saturday, this conversation happened:

So Boyfriend came over and we feasted.

Worth it.

Welp. So Much for Healthy Cookies.

Boyfriend came over this Saturday, so I decided to bake for him.

So I googled and found a basic recipe, that was pretty much exactly the same as regular chocolate chip cookies, just swapping out the white flour for whole wheat. The dough looked (and tasted) amazing. See:

They came out looking great, which as you guys know, is not always the case.

I was excited to have Boyfriend try them.

After Boyfriend managed to stop laughing and wipe the tears out of his eyes, he said this:

Sigh. You guys, I tried to be healthyish (because who are we kidding, the other ingredients are sugar and butter and chocolate chips).  Apparently, I can make things look good or taste good, but not both.

But Boyfriend still ate about 12 of them. He's so good.
