I made a chocolate cake on Saturday for no particular reason. I goofed up and put the top layer on upside down so that when I put the frosting on, the whole thing split into 3 large chunks about halfway down. I wanted to cover up my stupidity, so I ended up eating really big pieces of cake for breakfast and lunch on Sunday. That
s the binging part.
As for the purging, fall always makes me want to make changes and start new, so I began with the bedroom. Clothes are easy for me to get rid of. My rule is, if I don't absolutely love to put something on, then I get rid of it. Luckily, there's a really great vintage store close by that's very reasonable, so I don't feel bad giving old stuff away. I even got all inspired by watching a couple of episodes of "Clean House" and "repurposed" an indian print tapestry to hang in front of the bed. (Author's note: 18 month olds love playing peekaboo with tapestries hanging in front of a bed)
So now, at least when I walk into the bedroom, it feels like a place I'd actually want to sleep in.
I'll get to my three foot high inbox one of these days...
