Donna,

That's why I didn't make a cake. I knew if I made a cake, I'd be

having to cut into it, see the inside, smell it, put slices on

dishes, etc. Too much temptation. So, I figured if I made cupcakes

instead, each kid would just grab some themselves and I wouldn't

have to go near them. And then I knew if the jimmies were on top, I

wouldn't want them.

Couldn't figure out what to do to make the Dunkin Munchkins seem

repulsive, though, LOL. So, I just kept the box closed and put it as

far away from me as I could.

They also had pizza and soda, but that was at the bowling alley. I

was so sick that I didn't even go. My son and his girlfriend went to

help my husband with the party. Then, everyone came back here and my

daughter opened her gifts and they had the cupcakes. Then they all

slept overnight.

desire to eat the cupcakes, yet still kept your daughter's party

needs in mind. It takes a lot of creativity to get through all of

that!

chocolate cake from a fancy bakery in town. I plan on having 1

piece of veggie pizza (and a salad) and only a taste of cake. And

I'm hoping that 1 taste won't start an avalanche of sweet cravings!
