When Mark Krauss remarked (kiddingly) that I had taken a long time to respond to his comment and said that he was worried that I might be getting too big for my britches, I burst out laughing.

Here’s what he said. Glad to hear back from you! I almost thought you had gotten “too big for your britches”. Yea, you didn’t think I read 69, but I did. We have a language us baby boomers😁😁😁

I am new enough and grateful enough to try to respond to all the lovely comments that people take the time to leave for me. But, I missed a whole bunch of comments partly because it’s the season of celebrating and eating!

So, even though Mark Krauss was speaking metaphorically and playfully, he was the teeniest bit correct. I have literally gotten a bit too big for my britches. No, there will not be photos! lol

Food has been appearing as gifts from friends and neighbors. From Danish Kringle to Chocolate and Caramel Brownies, Christmas cake, and sugar cookies, the temptations never seem to end.

Seasonal Eating Disorder

I thought about Mark’s funny comment and then the idea of Seasonal Eating Disorder occurred to me!
