[Read Day 2 HERE]
This morning I tried to watch Good Morning America while I got ready for work, but no such luck whe it came to my diet restrictions. The first commercial break assaulted me with a Hershey’s Kiss commercial displaying a cute couple within the first millisecond and sent me sprinting for the TV to turn it off.
But on an exciting note, (and yes, I realize the following is really not that exciting to a normal person) I stumbled across a Miles Davis CD, and more lucky for me Miles is a man of few words — or rather no words, in his music anyway, so I have safely extend my musical selection to another six songs. Yes.
But here I am in day three of my love-free week, and I am wondering if upon my entrance back into that world with rom-coms, love songs (well, any songs with words really…) sitcoms and their amusing and enviable relationships, along with happily ever after endings will send me into a romantic overload?

I got this recipe from allrecipies.com when I wanted to make a dessert for Christmas that required no baking. My family loved and hated me for it – love because it’s freaking delicious and hate because – well, you read my warning.
It’s super easy to make and only requires that you’re able to stir and that you have a microwave and a fridge.
Here’s what you’ll need (allrecipies.com claims that this pie yield 8 servings, but it’s pretty rich, so you might get more out of it)
1 chocolate piece crust (9″)**
**I know that the original calls for a graham cracker crust and then the melting of hershey kisses to spread over the crust but trust me when I say that it’s a total pain in the ass and you’re better off using the chocolate crust.
1 8 oz. package of cream cheese softened (you can use reduced fat it you want; I never tried it with fat free, so I won’t suggest it)
3/4 cup of white sugar
1 cup of creamy peanut butter – your choice (You could use reduced fat PB, but I don’t know how that tastes, so I leave that up to you) Read More »
