Woot for recovery, Drew!
I went from a large DD to a perky B cup. I can walk out of the house in a camisole AIFG!
Oh god, I want to be able to do this. If losing this weight doesn't give me my B cups back, I might have that surgery too. And this from a woman who's terrified of surgery. I'm in an F cup too, and it's just ridiculous. No one should have to wear a bra to bed, FFS.
Allyson, doctor-ma to you.
I am so proud of you, Drew.
In parenting news, we have made a significant leap forward in potty training this week! I turned some of our CSA pumpkin into ice cream and told Dylan he could have ice cream every time he pooped in the potty. AND IT IS WORKING.
Go team bribery! Go Dylan!
Dillo, take note.
Bribery! Is there anything it can't do?
Also, this ice cream is fucking great. I roasted the pumpkin with butter and pumpkin pie spice, then mixed in heavy cream, sugar, and just a wee dollop of cream cheese, and it tastes exactly like a frozen pumpkin pie.

It's an excellent motivator. Carrots or sticks, baybee.

That sounds delicious! We have so much pumpkin from the CSA; I may have to steal this idea.
Yeah, the ice cream only used up about a quarter of the half-pumpkin I got (since I'm splitting a share with my neighbor). The rest is in the freezer and will probably either end up in a pie or a crock pot of chili.
Thankfully, this week we just got acorn squash. Not nearly as intimidating as the pumpkin/butternut monsters we've had the past 2 hauls.

Actually it looks like the "pumpkins" are actually a Japanese squash, but it seems like they can also be used in ice cream. Pumpkin in chili sounds interesting.
ETA: Speaking of CSA, does anyone have a good idea on how to use lemon balm other than in tea?

Thank you for reminding me that Graeter's flavor of the month is pumpkin. Woo, pumpkin ice cream! Possibly my favorite flavor ever.
I've never had pumpkin ice cream, but it sounds like something I should be looking into. Yum!
