hehe. Listen.. listen.. I know how to get rid of the calories of the cookies.. ok.. ready? You eat them FOR someone else. Then they save the calories and since you aren't eating them for yourself, then the calories don't count for you either.. viola.. no calories.. My BF and I save each other calories that way all the time..
"honey, I brought you a cupcake, I eated it for you. you enjoyed it immensely".. "Thanks, I brought you a carmel apple empanada, you also enjoyed it immensely".. zero calories.
Go on.. try it.
So.. yea.. I'm in MN too and I don't want any snow yet so stop swearing.
