I've lost seven pounds since I've been here because (even though it sucks) one must set a good example. :P
Today, however, there will be strawberry-rhubarb pie; Mom's been working hard and deserves it, and it helps her embrace eating healthily if there are a few special items on the menu. Said items are, of course, prepared in a nutritionally sound manner. Basically, my goal has been to offer Mom a variety of portion-controlled foods in a manner that she can easily duplicate when I go home (although I'll be helping her with her shopping and prep work a few times a week going forward). So far, so good (but goodness, I'm tired)!
Happy August!
In other news, I wrote two drabbles last month:
Two in the Bush (PG-13; Arthur/"Helga"; 100 words): Arthur makes his fantasy come true.
Missing Her (PG-13; Snape/Tonks; 100 words)
