Oh diets. Diets diets diets.

They suck, don't they?

If you're anything like me they last --- oh, about a day --- until you're back to your normal regime of one-too-many carbs.

Well, GC's, rejoice!

Now there's a carb that's GOOD for you! (Okay, maybe not good for you like fruits and veggies are, but they certainly aren't bad for you. And that's something, right?)

Without further ado, please meet my newest snacking obsession:

PopChips.

They're not fried - say goodbye to greasy grossness.

They're not baked - say goodbye to cardboard.

They're POPPED! - say HELLO to crispy deliciousness!

Seriously.

Did you ever have an emergency at 2am?

You know, you just got your period, fresh out of pads & tamps, and now are resorting to begging your boyfriend to do some midnight creepin' to Duane Reade.

Well, that emergency hasn't happened to me --- yet.

But (!) I'm one of these girls that suffers from What-If OCD. I'm always prepared - worst case scenario.

So, if & when this nightmare happens to me, I know exactly what I'll do.

I'll tell the BBF (British BF) to pick up Moxie.
