Although, I should add that the steadfast dieter is my dear friend. It wasn’t so much the delectable element of the dessert that broke her will, but I used my mighty super power: bribery.

The deal: I promised to accompany her for a day of clothes shopping.  I’m not a shopper, in fact I kinda hate it. Being only five feet tall it’s actually no fun at all.
