i know i'm not "old" by any stretch of the imagination but sometimes i swear i'm 80. case in point: it's saturday night and i'm in bed with a crossword, next to andy who is reading a book. he says to me, "i think i should eat more fiber."
lately i've been hooked on sugar-free wintOgreen lifesavers. they're pretty good. as in, i ate a whole bag of them yesterday. i have tried to quit eating candy, mainly for the sake of my teeth, but i couldn't do it cold turkey and i thought these would be a good stepping stone on the way to recovery. so like i said, i ate an entire bag ( probably over a 8-hour period) and woke up early in the morning with a stomache ache. today i noticed this on the back of the package, "contains phenylalanine. excess consumption may have a laxative effect." good one.

i'm glad andy is concerned about his fiber intake because i am too. i wonder how many calories are in an entire bag of mints. can't be too bad since they're sugar free.
