i’m baking Fuck You Wolfie cookies today: cinnamon molasses spice. I’m mixing, rolling, dipping in cinnamon sugar, baking. It’s pretty quiet here with Mr. B gone to his new office. I even liked him yesterday when he came home from ‘work’… That’s good news.
I’m baking cookies today in preparation for a new sober treat care package. You know, the treats you’re supposed to buy for yourself but sometimes you forget, or are busy, or are uninspired.
I got this lovely email about the last treat box:
So, I just got the care package yesterday, awesome, thanks. I can’t tell you how much fun it was to get that package 🙂 I did eat the ginger cookies. Holy Mother of God they were good! I did manage to not eat them all, in order to save for later… thank you so much!”
and this one
Nom, nom – that’s the sound of me eating the delicious treats from my treat box! I especially love the ginger cookies and the FUW tea. Thanks so much, Belle. I’m glad you decided to definitely do the treat boxes. To me it’s just a little tangible “pat on the back” for a job well done. I also loved the handwritten note.”
I bought the pink and purple socks for myself but then figured I should get 10 pairs and put them in the treat box too. Just cuz.

I am happily sober today. And my world is all about food. The sober treat box cookies, the podcast i recorded yesterday about mashed potatoes. I’m doing coaching calls tomorrow and my ‘treat’ for dinner will be a trip to Chipotle’s. when you live far from home, i can assure you that a beef taco is a pretty wonderful treat. i’m also going get myself a copy of the sunday new york times this weekend. for a treat. and i’ll eat the cinnamon cookies and wear my fuzzy socks and read the paper.

Congratulations to all! More impressive numbers. And the cookies were delicious!!!!
Looking at that bright red long list of sober people is like a good soaking clean rain! Great way to start the day and a reminder of what a cool collective journey we are all on…Thanks, Belle for being the engine.

I received the fuck you wolfie bracelet today – it is quite unpretentious, goes with everything, and I can wear it anywhere without fear that someone will exclaim “oooo can I try on your bracelet?!” Thank you for your help Belle.
Amen.
