{Celery}

Once upon a time I was in a neighborhood preschool group with my friends and the wonderful moms were the teachers. It was awesome. I learned the Pledge of Allegiance, my phone number, how to properly set the table, and about Indians and Pilgrims. One lesson that I remember learning was about healthy foods such as fruits and vegetables. I remember specifically talking about celery and how healthy that was for you. I was so gung-ho about being healthy that I begged my mom to buy celery at the grocery store every time she went. After a couple weeks she said that she wasn't going to buy celery any more! I was so confused! I asked her how we were supposed to be healthy if we didn't have celery! She said she would only buy it if I ate it. I actually had to eat the celery? But it's so gross! I didn't realize that in order to get "healthy points" you actually had to eat the stuff. Gross.

Every time I see celery I think of that story - I actually have to eat it? Gross.
Well - guess what I ate for dinner/snack/substance today? Celery with peanut butter. Do I still get my "healthy points" if I eat it with peanut butter? I hope so.
