Top 10 Holiday Diet Tips I would love to follow!

Top 10 Holiday Diet Tips I would love to follow!

1. Avoid carrot sticks. Anyone who puts carrots on a holiday buffet table knows nothing of the holiday spirit.  In fact, if you see carrots, leave immediately. Go next door, where they’re serving rum balls. Aren’t carrots for Easter?
2. Drink as much eggnog as possible. And quickly. It’s rare. You cannot find it any other [...]
