My favorite part of eating a meal.

I realized the other day that I'm always sad when dinner is over and I'm full of food. That may not be a problem for very many people. As I pondered that I realized that my favorite part of the meal is the middle. By then I have had a few yummy bites and I know that I have more to look forward to and enjoy. I also like to know there are leftovers. :)
On to dessert.... I also noticed that the best bites of dessert for me are the first two or three. After that the bites are no longer innocent. When many, many bites have been eaten, (and they frequently are) they do much more damage than they are worth. But those first few bites, priceless.

I totally agree. That is so funny, I was just thinking about this a few weeks ago. I love the middle and I'm usually already thinking about seconds before I finish.

Wow, you hit the nail right on the head... Maybe we -- I should stop with the first few bites of dessert! And possibly in the middle of dinner =) Love you and miss you! me
