Noshy

A rainy day – I stay at home But notice something odd – A constant need to nosh Has me on kitchen promenade. A bowl of chips, a Twizzler And some sugar-coated nuts – My salivary glands act up The minute my mouth shuts. Some sweet and sour cucumber My husband’s sliced real thin – I scarf a few and walk away But soon I’m reeled back in. A piece of cookie, just a bite, For hunger’s not the lure – When antsiness attacks, A little snack must be the cure. It’s dangerous to be inside For most of a long day, ‘Cause doing so affects your mind And also what you weigh!

Well just what are we sposed to do when mom baked all month long. If we didn't sit and stuff our face, it would just feel kinda wrong. I guess that's why there's snow outside so we can go and play. So when we finally come inside a little less, we'll weigh. Peace. :)
