An Achilles heel

A story:
So I love trail mix. Especially the fruit and nut mix from Costco. (pictured below) I think its an Achilles heel of mine. That and ice cream (I have successfully converted JJ to my love of all things creamy and icy.).....that and chips and salsa. Yes, I do love those things...so much. All three would make a complete meal: protein, fruit, vegetables, grains, and dairy! That's nutrition!

Fortunately, (or maybe UNfortunately) JJ also loves those things. Now allow me to digress for a bit, JJ savors and enjoys his food, I however, devour it. I don't know if its the nurse in me (I usually only have about 10 minutes at work to hork down my meal) or what but I always finish my food before JJ. And more often than not, this leads to me eating my third helping of something while he is still enjoying the second bite. To which I say, survival of the fittest man, survival of the fittest.

Anywhos, so its goes like this...JJ buys this trail mix on a Friday. We both munch on it over the weekend. (You can imagine the regularity going at our house.) Its good stuff!

Annnnnd on Wednesday, it looks like this.....Turns out the dried kiwis in the fruit and nut mix are NOT an Achilles heel.

Sorry man. You just can't buy things like this and leave them at the house and expect me to keep my grubby hands off em. But look at the upside! I saved all these kiwis for you!
The End.

What have we been doing lately?

We've been swimming in St. George with Ma and Pop (yowsas, I have a lotta hair!)

Kicking Ma and Pop's trash at Sequence (they did however give us a good beating at Quiddler)
Getting boogies in our hair
Pooping right out of our drawers
Showing off some serious cheeks.
Celebrating the number 28 (the only way we know how) with a generous scoop of ice cream.
We've been so busy, we had to find a way to de-stress.
The downward dog seems to calm us right down. :)
