I needed to release my habit, my tie to the sugary foods. So ceremoniously I took my Marshmellow Peeps to the Ocean. I released them into the waves as I stood on shore watching. They DIDN'T float away until they were little yellow dots on the horizon and then no more. The ocean kept throwing those five little peeps back at me as if Mother Nature was saying she would not accept high fructose corn syrup, (sugar) and yellow die number 2 in her diet. I watched the Ocean pull them in and then spit them back to me for a very long time. Slowly the sugar eroded off the 5 yellow peeps but they always came back to me. I decided I needed to pick them up and eat them. That was a funny thought that crossed my mind but I knew I was ready to really give up my habit of eating empty calories to excess. After 30 minutes of this I tossed those sticky yellow chunks of candy very far into the ocean but to my dismay they still came back.
A Seagull appeared dangerously close while circling around me and my peeps. Our eyes locked upon each other. Truly I was afraid not for my peeps but for me. He swooped down and just as I thought he was going to grab one of my eroding marshmallow vices he flew away without a second thought. The peeps were not even desireable to a scavanger bird. The process took longer then I had ever imagined it would but I had a lot of time to think about what it means to choose healthier and to never mindlessly eat sugar. There will be no more sugar comma's for me! I think Mother Nature made the point very well to me yesterday. P.S. You should see the JUMBO Mega Marshmallows my hubby brought home today. They must be as big as my fist. Jeez is there hope for me? TOWANDA!!
