Dear Diary Mmmmm Candy Bars and Filet Mignon.....

So as you know there is a drought going on and there are shortages of corn everywhere.  Well corn is in everything including beef.  How so you might ask?  Well in the feed the ingredients include corn.  So what are farmers going to do when corn gets too expensive and the feed becomes too expensive to buy.  What to do WHAT TO DO????  Oh wait a second FEED THEM CANDY!  Apparently they consulted with Willy Wonka and he developed a new feed for cows which involves candy corn and snozberries.  You may think this is a joke but it is not.  Seriously they are supplementing nutrition for cows with candy.  Candy that is unfit for consumption for humans but it is okay for cows.  Awesome and we eat those cows.  So next time you cut into your Ribeye or T-bone steak and see a candy coated shell, it is okay because at least you know it will melt in your mouth and not in your hand.

Dear Diary When did I Become a Dirty Hippy

I am back after a mini vacation to Houston, Texas, where there are plenty of restaurants and obese people (the effect of having a multitude of restaurants).  Every time I go to Houston I come back a little wiser and a little fatter.  I started off my trip with a SECOND dinner at Mai's and ate too much tofu.  You are probably thinking tofu is not so bad, yes it is when it is deep fried and then is stir fried in butter with garlic.  Then to top it off I had a cosmopolitan, the drink that Carrie Bradshaw made famous.  Did I log in my points? Noooooooooooooooooooo.  I just ate and imbibed on alcohol.  Also it is hard to maintain a healthy lifestyle when you come to your mom's house and the pantry is loaded with this:

Look at Mr. Pringles he is staring at me saying you know you want this!
