Just Do the Next Thing

Aug. 11, 2008 - Always Eat Dessert First

It is a wise woman who eats dessert first when she goes out to eat.

If you are going to order dessert, you should order it first. Let's be honest people, we always finish our dessert and would chose to finish our dessert and enjoy it over many main course meals. I know that I will.

My mother started the tradition of eating her dessert first when she was sick with cancer and had very little appetite. There are two reasons she would do this. First dessert tastes so much better than anything, especially if it is going to come back up. Second, she did not always have a great appetite so she preferred to eat dessert over anything else, except maybe fresh fruit.

So, my challenge to you is to eat your dessert first at least once a month. And think of my and my Mom when you do.
