Somebody Stop Me

You know how I always say I prefer salt over sweet. Chips over pastry.

IGA is ruining my life.

They have come out with Compliments brand glazed donuts. They are SO CHEAP I had to buy them. 6 for $1.59. They are really fresh and yummy and now I can't stop buying them. I hope IGA puts the price up soon, so I can stop. I think $1.59 for 6 is an introductory price for a new product. It is evil. Eeeeveeeeel. I know myself. Miss Frugal would not buy them if they were $2.99.

It is not like me to be obsessed by glazed donuts. I've bought them 3 times in 3 weeks. That's 18 donuts!


At this rate, I will never weigh 100 pounds. :(

Balancing your salt with sweet
Might make you a diet cheat.
But there are more important things in life, I think
Like Farrah's* life being on the brink.
So scoff away on your chocolate treaties
You salty-gal-now-turned-sweety

(*I have rethought it, and although it is no laughing matter, she is definitely worthy of not just one poem...but many, many poems. I just hope I will not have to resort to writing her AABB-rhyming-schemed eulogy.)

but have you tried the IGA chips? I mean they're are cheap too and they're the kettle kind. Mmm...salt & vinegar, old fashioned bbq, they have it all. Must go get some this weekend. THanks for planting the seed.

My weekend diet:
Cheap IGA donuts and kettle chips. I guess I need to wash them down with vodka, to make things perfect. sigh.

You would wash them down with Pop Shoppe drinks, if such things can be found in your hood.

By the way, that takes care of the meal. What is for desert?

Now that you mention it, I've been craving ice cream lately...bring on dessert!

You could have said "how about the extra "s" you left out of the the word dessert?"

I'm too polite to do that. Far be it from me to correct somebody's grammar or spelling.

It's not like you do it for a living or anything.

Ah, but how quick you lash out with venemous terror,
When I say "I should have went" by error.

but you were so good at our place even waiting to share veggies with the kids. You were so strong then. What's happening now?

I'm on a downward spiral. You know the worse you eat, the worse you feel, so you eat more bad stuff and feel worse. Swirl, swirl down the drain.

Might as well add to the all of this rambling,
If you want to spiral downwards, I propose you start gambling.
