Yesterday, I ate my annual Three Musketeers bar and then wondered on Facebook how many years it would take me to remember that THEY’RE GROSS.<\/p>\n

Because if I’m working on one skill in my old age, it’s turning down bad-for-you food if it’s not frickin delicious<\/em>. If I’m going to put crap into my system, I try to make sure it’s\u00a0sublime<\/a>.<\/p>\n

But yesterday, I had to go to yet another<\/em> meeting, and I felt like I deserved a treat for going, so I went to the vending machine. The pickins were slim. I don’t know if Three Musketeers was my best choice, but when you’re trying to avoid gluten, options are limited.<\/p>\n
