    Silencing the Tempters

    I love imported chocolate, especially Swiss.

    I’m sure that this love of “shocklat” (as my paternal grandfather called it in his Swiss-German accent) is both learned and genetic.

    For Easter this year, in addition to my annual Lindt gold bunny, the Easter Bunny brought me a variety bag of Lindt bite-sized Easter Eggs.

    I enjoyed the bunny bit by bit for a few days after Easter. I weighed every ounce that I ate and counted every calorie.

    Even though they’ve called out to me almost every day from the treat cupboard in our kitchen, I’ve resisted those eggs … on most days.

    Yesterday, I finally silenced them.
