First of all, this is not Josiah's fault, but when I was out in Rhode Island in April, he was given a treat of an ice cream cone when he was a good boy. Well, what a great idea. The problem is, once I was home, I couldn't stop thinking about him and Annika, and the ice cream cones. One night after choir rehearsal, I had such a craving for one. I knew I could stop at an ice cream shop and buy a cone, but the Scott in me thought, "I could buy some cones and ice cream like Rachel does, and save some money." So, into a grocery store I went; bought a box of Keebler Waffle Cones and a half gallon of maple nut ice cream. Oh my, that was my downfall. Not only did I eat one cone, but upon finishing it, I made another.
Well, that was some time in early May. Since then I have bought 2 more boxes of cones and 3 more half gallons of ice cream - 1 of butter pecan; 2 of banana walnut (a limited edition)! As I said, it is NOT Josiah's fault, or anyone else's. I am to blame. Somehow I have to get a handle on this new temptation.

It MAY be Josiah's fault--he only looks innocent!
You must be rewarding yourself for a number of times when you were very, very good!!!!!
Great post!
Try this. If you are going to eat it, you have to be walking. Take the cone outside and eat it. Or just ignore me an enjoy!
