Was it refined sugar? Sugar in processed foods? Just sugar? Woes! I'm not actually done with all my pie yet!

Basically any sugar that isn't naturally in a food (like in fruit or milk). (I mean, I suppose sugar is naturally in sugar cane, but that's not really what they mean.)

Yes, yes, that is what they mean! I can chew on raw sugar cane and it will all be fine!

(Ha, though, my dad grew up on a sugar cane plantation and they actually did all do this. It's amazing any of them have their teeth.)

Yes, yes, that is what they mean! I can chew on raw sugar cane and it will all be fine!

Would that count as fiber? Fiber is good for you! t /rationalizations R us

They sell raw sugar cane at some of the markets in New Orleans. A few of my friends in college told me that they grew up near sugar plantations, and they'd break off a bit of cane from the plants near the road and "have a chew" while they were walking to school.

They day after Christmas and I have no voice. My throat hurt and no one is home to tend me. I was even out in the world this morning and didn't pick up and cough drops.

And go team fatty/saggy boobs. Another pain free mammogram. This year I'm more nervous about the results even though I don't have anything person to raise a concern. I just have had too many people get bad news in the last couple of months.

Absolutely! And, uhhh, also, the chewing motion is like working out because it uses muscles!

Happy triple birthdays!!

I certainly hope sugar is more unhealthy than salt and fat. It would make me feel pretty good about my choice to live primarily on cheese.

Cheese will save us.

Praise Cheesus.

Behold the power of cheese.

God, I'm in so much trouble with sugar, though.

Happy birthdays to Jesse, Theo, and Rayne!
