11/30/2010 Whadya Mean I Can't Drink Gravy and Lose Weight?!

I had such a marvelous time on Thanksgiving,
throwing my dietary caution to the wind.
I rolled in, basked in, basted myself in
and guzzled gravy.
Whadya mean I can't drink gravy and lose weight?!
It did take me two months to lose those five pounds.
Rather shocking it could all return in one day.
It was worth it.
Seeing the delighted faces of my sister and brother-in-law
and my marvelous children and my adorable husband,
all around the feast
giving thanks for our blessings.
It's not like I have a gravy habit or anything.
"Hi, my name is Gretchen and I'm a gravyholic."
Okay, I do have a gravy habit!
But I have come out of denial
and that's the first step.
Right?
