Mid-week Quick Fix

And here I am once again armed with something sweet to whet your appetite. If you are not one of those  self-confessed sweet addicts, then you might not appreciate seeing this yet again, right here. So, what is it for now?

A couple of dark chocolate cupcakes with dark chocolate frosting. One is filled with raspberry and the other one with white chocolate, and both were oozing with the filling. Yum, yum yum!!!

I wish I can claim that I made these beautifully crafted cupcakes, but no, these were brought home Wednesday night, courtesy of my husband, as per my request, from our fave bakeshop in Soho.  Call them my mid-week indulgence ( at $3.50 per cupcake), when I can’t bake and I’m pressed for time.

I know, I’m going back to my old habit: eating sweets every single day. My husband and I decided to cut back and made it to “weekend indulgence” only a couple of years ago. Prior to that, we were eating cakes with our hot tea every night before hitting the sack regardless of the time. That went on for yearssssssssssss. The everyday indulgence was halted, no ifs and buts, when our cholesterol levels dangerously rose to high heavens. Recent tests revealed normal results for both of us, but at the rate I’m going I won’t be surprised to see a spike on mine when I see my Doctor in a couple of weeks for my regular checkup.

What a stubborn lass! I know the consequence but I can’t stop. Help !!!!!!
