Salad, Salad, Salad

Salad, salad, salad, every day of the year To keep me thin and trim, it's not working I fear You'd think by now I'd be slimmer than a cow This obsession for Big Macs is really severe

A salad everyday for 5 years? Wow! I guess the cat's out of the bag now. Now everyone knows the secret to your "wigor and witality" ... If you want wimericks that are edgy, that you best not soon forgetty. The secret, who knew? Yes it's all too true! EAT MORE VEGGIES!

Funny, Jack! Though I'm a bit the opposite. I'd go for a salad over a Big Mac any-day (though I do put like 20 ingredients in mine, so what you're actually tasting can be almost indefinable!)

I have actually had a salad every day for the past 5 years! (well give or take a day here and there) but the salad dressing I pour on can be a killer!!!!!!

You and me both! Dragon keeps grabbing my Big Mac's... I believe he does it at Hubby's request... And I would say the love surrounding me makes me blest... If I wasn't so hungry on that Big Mac Quest!... So I've decided to attack every thing THEY want to ingest... Naw! Just kidding! But I still want that pizza!... LOL... REALLY! I'd even agree to a salad with it!!!! HONESTLY!!!! Sigh... ;( I'll win... Just you wait and see... :) Ever the optimist! Besides they go to work and won't know what I eat... One of these days... Yum Yum!
