EVERYONE SHAPE UP AND FLY RIGHT!!!! SUZANNE WAS HERE!!! OMG, It is like opening your front door and having the Queen standing there with a bottle of wine, wanting to come in a chat for a while.
Well, in this case, more like your landlord standing there with a can of Spagetti O's, but I am THRILLED, nonetheless, and honored to have seen you here!
Ok, the hot tea went by the wayside, as I opened the cabinet and saw the bag of Baked Lays Cheddar and Sour Cream chips sitting there on the shelf. I THOUGHT I heard someone faintly calling for help from inside the bag, and so, it was my civic duty to check it out. I actually like mice (at YOUR house though, not mine) and I was afraid that maybe Stuart was trapped in my bag. So, I opened the bag and peered inside, and didn't SEE anything, so I took the bag over to the scale and dumped some in, and didn't see anything there either...so I ate the 2 servings I dumped in the scale...My reasoning is...now there are LESS chips in the bag, just in case Stuart IS is my bag, he will now have a fighting chance to get up to the top for air. The more I eat, the better his chance of survival.
And besides, I DID weigh them and write them down. But the agony of trying to crunch up the chips and swallow them carefully, so as to not further irritate my throat was rather comical and REALLY not worth it. I looked like some wild animal swallowing his prey, with big exaggerated gulps, and craning my neck forward, so the passage would be as large and straight as possible.
For cryin out loud, I should have just had some sugar free jello and been done with this. But the salt is calling me today....
Anyway Tiger....Glad the price is a little more reasonable that what your friend said. Maybe she is one of those friends that tells you things like that because she doesn't want you to join, because she is afraid you will end up looking better than her. I have a friend like that, she is always saying, "Here, try this cheesecake, it's fat-free, I made it at home", and then I see the Sara Lee box in the trash.
She just likes that when we go out together, she is always the focal point...and she doesn't want to lose that. She is the type of person that when you go out to eat...is a food pusher. You all know the type...kind of like your Grandma. "Here, eat this pie, I made it just for YOU, and I will have a stroke and die if you don't eat it." My friend is all about trying to get me to order the Fried Chicken with homestyle gravy and fried okra...etc....so I let her order first and she will get something fattening, and then I order a salad and just let her glare!
I think the more determined she is to make me fail, the more determined I am to WIN.
On a side note, my paternal grandmother is sort of like that, only with her cooking. I am a pretty darn good cook, and occasionally, I will ask her for her recipe for something, and she always writes it down and leaves out one important ingredient, or she changes the quantity of ingredients, so it never turns out.
And then blames it on me. "Well, you must not be quite the cook that I am."
So now, I just stick to my cookbooks, or look things up online. Crazy old cow.
Ok, my rant is over for the day. Another thing...I am SO....SO addicted to the Turkey Lean Cuisine. It has chunks of turkey in gravy over stuffing, I usually have a couple of pieces of lite bread with it too, to sop up my gravy, and then it has the BEST apples in this sweet sauce....OMG, they are to die for. I also will have a can of veggies on the side....but those apples are almost enough to make me write poetry.
Well, ta-ta....
Glad to see you Hermit...Uh, I mean Dyan.
Tiff
But let me tell ya! I was feeling no pain 
HA, and now when I get sick I have tea w/ brandy. At least he was good for something 
. Hope you feel better sweetie....
I am honored to know her! What she wouldn't do for another living creature!
You should have stuck with the sugar-free Jello.
Hey, Kayla! How ya doing sweetie???
Could end up on doin' weird things to my boss with icicles up my nose or somethin'. Hm, I don't think my mom wants me to play with you any more.....
