Healthy Party Snacks!

Last night I was having a "Wine Glass Painting Party" at my house.  Usually when I have a party I make all sorts of dips and chips, cheese and crackers, all sorts of bad (but delicious!) snacks.  I was worried about it because I didn't want to be tempted by all of the badness!  To my surprise I did mostly healthy snacks and didn't feel like I was missing the junk!

I did a fresh fruit tray, a veggie tray (with both regular and fat free dips), organic corn chips & fresh salsa.....and then a few bad cookies/brownies so that those who aren't watching what they eat don't revolt and never come back to my house again!

It was great....I could snack all night and consume barely any points!  The fruit and veggies were all ZERO points, the salsa was also point-free, and the corn chips weren't too bad either.  I stayed away from the cookies and brownies and apparently most of the others did too as they are still sitting here on my kitchen counter!  I am hoping my kids eat them up QUICKLY as they are calling my name...

And I couldn't go through the night without my wine.  I had 1 glass (5 points) but then the other couple I just put a little bit of wine in them (maybe like 1 point worth) and then added some diet 7 UP so that I had a big glass of wine with barely any points!  No, it wasn't quite the same but I still enjoyed drinking wine with my friends and not getting fatter!!

The party was fun too!  We painted pottery wine glasses--a fun night with some of my favorite girls!    I think there was like 15 of us.  Wish we had gotten a group pic before some had left.  :(  Here's a few pics...

Katie and I with our glasses....can't wait to see them fired!

My glass--it says "Cheers Bitches".
Everyone did 2 glasses but I was too busy
socializing and drinking wine to get 2 done!  LOL
It'll look different fired and that grey stuff won't be all over it.  :)

Part of the group....about 5 or 6 people had already
left when we thought to do a group pic!
