Cathy: Mom and I sipped sugar-free iced tea and squabbled. We ate tiny salads with fat-free dressing and got on each other's nerves. WE ORDERED A GIANT PIECE OF PIE A LA MODE WITH TWO FORKS, AND ARE HAVING THE TIME OF OUR LIVES!! We do better when we speak the language of love in the dialect of dessert.

Mothers Day is absolutely no time to be on a diet. Period! A la mode is the cute accent of the language of love.

vaughnrl2003 is right! Mothers’ Day, Religious holidays, National holidays, vacation time, and any other cause for celebration is definitely not a time for a diet. Of course, on some of those days, chocolate (substitute your favourite poison) has no calories anyway.
Have a good Saturday!

HI, MOM. Hello, “Cathy” Clan.
