I woke up this morning with an old flash cartoon song lyric in my head, “Mind on my muffin & my muffin on my mind…”. Some of you may already be laughing, remembering Miss Muffin; she’s been around on the web for a while. I’ve been feeling a lot like Betty Bundt Cake and her Devil’s Food problem lately. I work out regularly & eat a pretty balanced diet, but I just can’t resist a cookie (or 2 or 3 or 5) at the end of the day. And, what’s that result in? A bit of a muffin top of course. Of course, I don’t wear mine on my head like Miss Muffin’s gang. The mid-section muffin is my battle.

Why did I share this? Well, I don’t think I need an intervention like Betty, but by confessing “my problem”, perhaps I’ll think twice before I eat more than one cookie. Or maybe one of you will have a great mid-section exercise that munches away on muffin top.

Oh, and while I find the cartoons funny, please skip them if you aren’t into crass humor and language! The muffin gang may look like Strawberry Shortcake, but they sure don’t talk or rap like her.
