Snacking at 6 a.m.

I was at the grocery store this morning at 6:30 buying donuts to celebrate that a colleague had her master's thesis accepted yesterday. Ahead of me in line was a woman buying Sunny Delight and a few other things. With her was a little boy, maybe two years old, in a stroller.

Whoa, I thought, she's really got herself together to be at the store with a kid at this hour of the morning. I had a hard enough time getting myself dressed!

I was pretty darned impressed until I saw her hand the cashier an open bag of BBQ potato chips to scan. When they were paid for, she handed the bag back to her child. Gee, what a nutritious breakfast.

I would wager that even my donuts were more healthy than that!
