Day Four.

GUYS.

Some awesome things happened today.

This happened:

My tutoring student (a fashionable, forty-something mother of another student of mine) knows that I LOVE WITH MY WHOLE SOUL anything to do with my outward appearance; so today, at the beginning of our tutoring session, she breezed in with this glorious thing in her hand. 

FOR ME.

It's a thing of beauty.

(Every week, we talk about clothes, and shoes, and makeup, and nails. Best class time EVER.)

And then, THIS HAPPENED:

Sorry the picture is a little grainy; I couldn't focus the camera in all my excitement to gobble this down. SO YUMMY.

This may not look as chocolatey and delicious as it WAS, but let me tell you, it was the most amazing microwavable, chocolate, SUGAR-FREE cake on the history of this planet. I found this fabulous blog that has all sorts of amazing, healthy dessert recipes with WONDERFUL sugar free options! This moist little morsel was rich, warm, gooey, and FULL of (sugar free) chocolate. I'll be making this again real soon, FOR SURESIES.

This next month looks like it's going to go faster than anticipated.

PS: I told one of my students today that I was going off of sugar for an entire month, and she got this look of absolute horror on her face, as if I told her I had just murdered somebody (seriously, her eyes widened, her job dropped, and her eyebrows furrowed), and asked, "WHY?"

My gosh, these kids are awesome.
