HAPPYJO's CalorieKing blog
Thursday, Jul 12 2007 - Oh man this is about to get interesting.
View HAPPYJO's food & exercise for this day
Looks like its time to put the old Jocelyn to the REAL test.
So we have a little thing here called the Stampede, it's like a carnival plus a rodeo and chucks and all sorts of stuff like that.
ANYWAYS what I'm focusing on here is the carnival aspect ... more like the food they serve in the carnival atmosphere.
I'm pretty much hosed tomorrow. (Thats when I'm going) Because there's corn dogs, pizza, cotton candy, candy apples, lemonade MINI DOUGHNUTS (which are my absolute down fall)
Not to mention a couple of new comers. Like: deep fired Mac and cheese, deep fried snickers, deep fired Twix bars, and my new personal favorite DEEP FRIED COCA COLA!!!! SERIOUSLY!!!!????????????!!!!!!!
AAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAARRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHH.
I seriously think thats taking it a tad too far. Seriously ... deep fried coke? As if coke on it's own isn't bad enough, they have to mix it into batter ... deep fry it put the coke syrup on it add some icing sugar whipped cream and a cherry ... can you believe this??
I figured if anyone else would feel my pain it would be the lovely ladies on C.K.
Now I know tomorrow is going to test my resolve ... and I won't be able to leave without eating some mini doughnuts ... but there is going to be a LOT of walking ... and hopefully I can at least make some effort to make healthy decisions ... man am I ever happy this only comes once a year.
(Note the amount of seriouslys in there that just goes to show how flabber ghasted I am by this whole shebang of fried goods)

Life is not about total deprivation. If you love the mini donuts, and get them once a year, allow yourself a half order. But do it AFTER all the walking, on your way out. That way you're looking forward to it the whole time, it's your reward, and you won't open the carnvial food flood gates and just keep finding other stuff. Also, ditto Reb, you know you'd feel gross afterwards anyway. Have fun!!!! Kisses

Deep fried coke and mac'n'cheese? Mmm... Don't bother with the snickers though. I've had one and they are not really worth it./// About your comment in my journal-- Orange is my favorite color and my girls all know this .... and I don't know about a saint for buying houses. They didn't have one at the hardware store.

i would allow myself one treat like the mini donuts and skip the rest of the stuff. Honestly it's just going to make you feel gross and sick after anyway and it probably won't even taste "that" good. The mini donuts will but everything else gross.
