Heaven Too!

The box arrived from the cabin finally. Filled with tasty treats it made my mouth water all over again. Richard put the contents in the freezer.

"It'll keep us from eating it all at once," he told me.

"Why would we want to do that?" I asked.

We sat down to dinner with our piece of salmon and large salad. This is the diet dinner that allowed us each to lose 25 pounds over the past few months. We'd had this so often we were finally starting to enjoy eating all the bunny food.

"So what's for dessert?" Richard said as he finished the last bit of lettuce on his plate.

Without waiting for an answer he got a shoo fly cake from the freezer and warmed it up in the microwave. He set it in front of me with a knife. I cut it in half. I took a bite from my half and savored every last crumb. Richard did the same with his. It was heaven.

The next day at lunch, we ate our salad and then enjoyed a loaf of applesauce cake. At dinner we wolfed down the pumpkin bread. We gave away one loaf of shoo fly cake to a neighbor. One less for us to eat. We've been following this same routine for several days now. There are still several delicious cakes in the freezer but at this rate, heaven is not going to last much longer. Fortunately I know the phone number of the cabin where these goodies are made. I'll just call and order some more. Until I get back on the scale, that is.
