Lesson learnt

After reading the last two posts anyone perusing our blog must think we are junk-food addicts. I firmly hold my ground that I am simply a HUGE Oreo fan (okay, and sweets in general--but the only junk food we have in the house are my Oreos). And as for Kyle--well, I am honestly surprised that he blogged about Oberweis ice cream. He is usually quite anti-desserts and more pro-entree-like foods. Lest we forget that there are still a good 6 (or more!) weeks left in the Hunter family Biggest Loser contest? Blogging about junk food is not going to win us anything!

In any case, time for a fresh topic to blog about.

Wait--- except I do have to confess something. (uh-oh. This could get scary) Two days ago the kids were napping and I felt some hunger pangs. I realized I hadn't eaten yet for the day (For busy, SAHMs forgetting to eat is a common occurence. You know, so much to do and keep up with that we remember at aboout 4pm that we forgot to eat breakfast*) and a smile quickly came to my face. "I've got Oreos," I said to myself. So I grabbed a glass, poured the milk and took a handful of cookies. I sat down in the living room and dunked a few (okay, like 6) oreos in milk and washed them down. I sat on the couch enjoying the hunger that was just appeased.

Moments later my head began to spin and I could not even stand up. This uneasy feeling crept up my throat and my mouth watered. Just like the pregnant days--only I am not pregant. I was closest to my front door so I ran for it and reached the front yard just in time.

I literally tossed my cookies.

So, dear friends, I have learnt my lesson well. Thou shalt not eat cookies on an empty stomach.

Next time I'll be sure to eat something substancial before I partake in the Oreo goodness. I know, even after that, I still swear upon the greatness of Oreos. Psycho.

Okay, I'll blog about something else now. :-)

Michelle, you are so cute! I love hearing all your stories and I can vividly picture everything that is happening as you write it! About the boy on my blog, we have been off and on dating since July. He is not quite sure of himself, one minute he seems really interested and shows it in passionate ways and then the next day he wants to be friends. He is confusing and frankly being honest with myself. I do not need a guy friend, I am ready for a relationship and so I told him we can not be friends and lets just end it completely. He is really attractive and I do like many things about him. But there are other things that have not really measured up and so for now I am letting it go. If you want more details let me know, I will email you my number and when you have a chance, I can tell you about it.
