so, usually I try to eat healthy: lots of fruit, lots of water, good lean protein, whole wheat bread, the like. I often drink soda with my lunch, but I usually don't drink the whole can, and that's usually the only soda I have and I try to go for izze or iced tea when I can.
i take my vitamins, try to limit caffeine and only have it before 1pm, etc.
but sometimes I get in a mood, or I get a craving, and unless it's for something I can't get here (like blue bell or mazzios) or unless it's suuuuuuuper terrible for me, I usually give in to the craving.
(this week I'm operating on the i'm-playing-three-softball-games-this-week, therefore-i-can-eat-whatever-i-want mentality) anyway, I decided to get some poptarts. my toast for breakfast just wasn't cutting the mustard.
I went the to vending machine downstairs, where they had strawberry poptarts for 85 cents. It would not accept my quarter, and I noticed there were no lights on in the machine.
Someone in the breakroom said that others were having trouble, too, and I should try the one upstairs. So up I went.
they had strawberry poptarts for 80 cents. and hey, if a penny saved is a penny earned, then a nickel saved is great!
I put in my quarter. and my other quarter. and my other quarter. and my dime.
and got back a dime AND my poptarts.
lesson learned: go to the vending machine upstairs, 'cause it's cheaper AND you're burning calories walking up the two flights to get there.

you put mustard on your morning toast? gross
You're evil. I was in the grocery store this morning and just couldn't walk by them. I tried so hard. I even stayed away from the Cinnabon frozen apple pie, but NO I had to pick up the box of strawberry poptarts, didn't I? Well, at least I got the low fat ones ;)
