These days, I really try hard to avoid eating refined grains and food with added sugars. But like anything, it’s good to be a bit easier on yourself, occasionally indulge when you are out an about in a controlled fashion.

I don’t go to ice cream stands all that much, in part because I rarely drive places except on vacation or traveling. I don’t get ice cream or treats at home, though I do like a good apple or other banana or frozen fruit with non-fat plain Greek yogurt. But sometimes a treat is a treat.
