Alas.<br /><br />Dog: Happy PD!<br /><br />Zoomie: Oh, they still have tiny pretzels on planes? How much do they cost? :D<br /><br />Mama Bean: Wow. Sounds like a really fun indulgence, especially with the dips.<br /><br />Peter: You win.<br /><br />Mouse: I actually think there are some Kettle chips in my house. Unmolested. The pretzels are here because we found a decent gluten-free brand, and thought we ought to have them around for... ???<br /><br />Shine: That woman saved your lives! Pretzels and wine, not too shabby.<br /><br />Spiteful: Beaver mustard! Yeah. I'm not sensitive to salt, I just want to keep my intake to around a teaspoon a day.<br /><br />Melanie: Then you are excused. No more for you. (And that is good.)<br /><br />Greg: Does it count?

We spent our money on clothes and concerts and ran out of grocery money long before payday. <br /><br />But, I used to voluntarily do relexology for some older ones and one woman would always give me a bottle of red wine and a huge bag of pretzels. So, we'd have pretzels with mustard, with thousand island dressing...<br /><br />It's so nice now to have pretzels as an occasional SNACK...not dinner!

But I can't eat them now - they are too salty and if I manged to get some down, they sit on my stomach like lead. Ah and ptooi! I like the wisdom that comes with getting older (and more creative and more talented and more talkative heheheh) but Le Digestion is now what she used to be.
