You can bake homemade apple crisp and 2 kinds of homemade cookies and not be tempted to "test" the results! I'm baking for my son who I'll be seeing on Friday, and he requested peanut butter cookies with the hershey kiss on them. I'm making a batch of those, some snickerdoodles, and made apple crisp, all while waiting for it to be time to make dinner (I eat pretty late in the evening). I realized when I was unwrapping the kisses that I hadn't even thought about taking a taste of anything, it's an N Day! It's been almost a year, but I think I finally get it :) .

Wow! Success! I KNOW I can not do that without taping my mouth shut ...or at least a severe struggle the entire time. :?
I guess this doesn't work unless you actually do it.
Please pray for me

You know it's a habit when you put one slice of left over lamb roast away in tupperware, instead of "cleaning it up' by eating it.
