Good eats -- then not

Yesterday was a good day for dieting: oatmeal with cinnamon for breakfast; omelet with soy sausage and onion for lunch; white bean soup and salad for dinner. Snacks of nuts. I felt good. Today I had a challenge that was truly unfair. After the oatmeal I had to bake a cake for my son's belated birthday party. I made the traditional organge layer cake, the one that Mother used to make for Daddy and me all throughout my childhood. I could not resist sampling the icing as I frosted the cake. Delicious, but instant headache. Ouch.
