My New Addiction
For sixteen years I did not drink a can of carbonized soda.
Then I remembered how much I used to like cream soda.
I asked my husband to bring some home from the store.
This was the beginning of my intense sugar addiction.
I now drink two to three cream sodas a day.
Some cream soda cans are worth almost two hundred calories.
The ones I drink are worth two hundred and ninety calories each.
I make no apologies for my addiction; it has sweetened my life.
