Happy Holidays. Dieting after New Years.

Well, the holidays are about an escape from the harsh lifestyles.  Missing out on the treats and goodies and going to work.

New Years Day is Tuesday, Jan 1st.  Wednesday is the real Labor Day.  Back to work, back on a diet, and doing taxes.

The new years resolution: Yup, of course to go back to where I was during the summer.  Well, that's what I usually do.  Lose in the spring, gain in the fall.  But also is to support local business.  Am I crazy about big chain parlors?  No.  There are planty of ice cream places that are open year round.  Bedford farms and Jay Gee's is one of the few that are open during the year.  Not that I'm going to go there every day, as I am going to eat a low carb diet with nuts, veggies, and fish.

But that's here it goes.  Work and diet in the spring (well, don't forget valentines day), go to Kimballs just for a kimball special late march, depending on when they are open (Can't believe that Kimball's dont even sell ice coffee during the winter, which is kind of bazarre), maybe enjoy an ocassional lobster roll on a few weekends during april or may, then the summer flys through, before you know it, Kimball's and Rota Springs sells apple crisp starting late August through october (November 3rd in Rota), and before you know it, fall and winter vacation...again.

This year is Kimball's 75th season by the way.  But I will still enjoy an occasional ice cream at Jay Gee's or Richardsons.  The key is: diet during the weekdays, and every other weekend, enjoy a nice sundae.

But yup.  January is the worst month of the year.

Well, just think about these Kimball specials before Kimballs opens up perhaps March 30th.
