Dewey's Bakery

My favorite food in the entire world is cake from Dewey's Bakery.  If I'm gonna eat something I would rather have that than anything else in the world!  So in the past several weeks I have had a couple of opportunities to enjoy my favorite food but passed it by.  I was trying to be good.  Well today at work, there was a huge box of cake squares brought into work for us.  I found out they were there just before I went into a meeting.  As soon as the announcement was made several of us looked at each other and said, "let's go."  I shot back to the breakroom faster than lightening.  I was back there, picking out a cake square with lots of icing, and back to the conference room eating it before I could even think about it.  I did eat the cake square, and I had no regrets about it.  In fact, I was telling the others who were in there with me that I just knew there would be Dewey's cake in Heaven when I got there!  Then later on tonight when I had time to slow down, I reflected back on my "heavenly" experience and I realized just how much control food has over my life.  I mean I was up and back there grabbing me a cake square before I even knew what was happening.  Again, I don't regret eating just that 1 cake square.  In fact, I'm pretty proud of myself because in the past I would not have stopped at one.  What I did learn was that just eating that 1 cake square satisfied my craving (or need) and I didn't think about the cake anymore the rest of the day.  That is a huge step for me!  So I look at today as a another accomplishment!
