Yay, I Just Ate Strawberries

You know how I prefer most things [chocolate, caramel, crackers] over fruit. But Figgy signed on to bring fruit and Nutella into school for breakfast with the yearbook staff, and since the strawberries were only $1.99 a pound at ShopRite [where we went due to budget-watching/penny-pinching], I got a pack for us. Grown in Florida, they were red--not white and woody-looking--and fragrant.

Just now, I stirred a little light brown sugar and a capful of Nielsen-Massey top-drawer vanilla into a little sour cream and dunked my berries in the bowl....tasted good.

A step in the right direction. And... the strawberry is a fashionable fruit.....such a pretty color....and a jaunty green, lacy hat.....and a shapely body.....

And then I logged in at myfitnesspal.com and couldn't believe that 6 plump berries is 49 or fewer calories total?

Enjoy your day.
