Temptation

TEMPTATION
–noun
1.  enticement or allurement.
2.  the state of being lured, especially to evil.
My temptation this morning is the leftover Pizza Roll in the fridge.  It has hamburger, pepperoni, mushrooms, olives, peppers, onions, sauce, cheese, and a delicious crescent roll crust.   Did I mention garlic butter brushed on the outside?!
There is exactly 1 piece left in some rubbermaid tupperware sitting on the top shelf.
...next to the fresh fruit....right above the yogurt. 
---you know, the things I should want to eat. 
I can't seem to move past the smell that has been left behind in the kitchen.  The overwhelming yet subtle smell of garlic and sauce is almost too much for me to bear.  How does one eat a pineapple yogurt with cantelope when there is something so enticing, alluring, and quite frankly EVIL lurking about?
I could just throw it down the disposal.  I could throw it in the trash.  I could feed it to the dog.
...but think about all those starving children...
It just wouldn't be right to let something like that go to waste.  
So I guess it's settled.  I must eat it. 
You know...for the children. 
Today's weight: 189.2
