Day 7 - What I did not eat

But damn if I didn't want to!

It was my daughter's 9th birthday this week & as you know - I love to bake.  I created this piggy cake for her - can you guess her favourite animal is? She asked for a cake that was green & had a pig on it.  HHHmmm - angry birds came to mind.The cake making itself wasn't so bad & the smell of it baking was incredible.  I had to stop myself from unconsciously licking the spoon as I always have when baking.

Luckily, I was prepared with my own raw vegan dessert & enjoyed it along side the family. Hopefully Mim can understand why I didn't eat her special cake as she gets older - it's nothing personal to her of course - it's about making healthy choices for me.

My yummy dessert from www.healthyfunkyfoods.com :


This was an interesting cake...It had peanut butter & strawberry jam - which was good - but I could have skipped the jam & just had the peanut butter & chocolate.
The chunks of chocolate were chocolate mint..odd with peanut butter & jam..so I picked them off & ate them separately :) Which was awesome & satisfied that chocolate craving I've been having lately.
