I thought a bowl of Special K cereal would be good after church tonight. We ate dinner early (right after 5 pm), so I was hungry after church. No biggie...it's Special K, right? But, when I was nearly done with my bowl, I suddenly noted that the milk was really good. I mean really good. And thick. And creamy. And sweet.

And then it dawned on me.

I accidentally used my son's whole milk on my cereal instead of my lowfat milk.

Until recently when I switched my son from formula to milk, I've only had one gallon of milk in the fridge at once. Reaching for a gallon of milk meant reaching for the only gallon of milk. Not so anymore. So, tonight I reached for the milk and unintentionally put the really fattening milk on my cereal. Instead of a nice, light bowl of Special K, I ate the equivalent of a bowl of ice cream.

Hmmm....

Aww, that stinks! But I bet it was tasty.

I have been a skim milk drinker for pretty much my whole life until recently. My husband persuaded me to switch to 2% milk because it's only about 20 calories more, but I can taste the difference those 20 calories make! I am not sure the change is going to stick. 2% seems too...decadent. Haha.

That is a bummer. I'd be thinking, if I was going to eat all those calories, I'd have blown it on something way better.
