Diet derailed by a cookie?

Because planning is one of my strong suits and I love doing it I have been competely obsessed with the new "Dessert Tables". These mini works of art are all the rage these days and  a must have at a great party. I found Sweet Designs blog by Amy Atlas and went completely crazy, bonkers, out of my mind with excitement. I ran out and bought her book of the same name.  It has become my party bible. I have been trying different table set up's for our upcoming anniversary party. One of the side effects of this new found passion is the props for the table settings.  Yes those beautiful little cookies, cake pops, and candy. I am sure you can see where this is going. Visiting all the cookie & cake blogs, trying the recipes is the natural order of life. The bloggers share their recipes, tips, excitement, and encouragement so newbies like me can make all these wonderful cookies. It seems a shame to bake a batch of cookies and give them away without eating a few right? Well that is what happened to the diet, it went by the way of the cute little yummy cookies I have been baking all week.  I am working on my grandson Logan's graduation party like any good grandma his cookies must be the best I have ever made so I guess the diet will have to wait for a while because being a good grandma is worth several pounds.  ha ha
