My dinner this evening has consisted of chocolate covered pretzels, peppermint crunch Junior Mints, Nerds candy, and a cranberry champagne cocktail. That’s a well-balanced meal, right?
Absolutely! Of course, mine consisted of Nutter Butters, red velvet cake, and icing…I’m making truffles. I guess I’m not the best judge, but it still sounds good!
I definitely think you hit all the food groups. And Junior mints and nerds don’t count – the mints are like eating a breath mint (right?!) and the nerds are too small to have calories.
Isn’t well-balanced a subjective thing? I mean, you can have a well-balanced meal of anything, can’t you? And if it all involves sugar, then power to you!
I just wanted to pop in and say hello since I’ve been a fan. I began reading your blog a few weeks back when I started putting my own together. Your day to day writings always tickle me (especially since I can relate to eating sugar packed NERDS because of my two small children). I need to energy to keep up!
Happy holidays to you and yours-I can’t wait to see what you write about next.
Very well balanced. I think you’ve hit all the major food groups. Especially the alcohol group.

Sounds like you nailed a variety of colors, that’s got to count for something!
bwahaha — while I was texting you about eating the most delicious food on the planet.
I wouldn’t mind some peppermint crunch jr mints about now though. nom.nom.nom.
of course chocolate is the all encompassing food.
I have never heard of peppermint crunch Junior Mints, but I think that I must find them immediately.
Hey, at least you’ll sleep well after your sugar crash.

Works for me!!
Mmmmmmmm. Nerds. Yummy. Purple or blue are the best!
I think you hit all of the major food… er, candy… groups!

Well, you’ve got your fiber (pretzels), antioxidants (chocolate, cranberry), fruit (Nerds, cranberry). If that’s not balanced, I don’t know what is =)
Sounds like it to me!
I had a bag of Target gummy bears for lunch today!
I’m pretty sure you hit all the food groups.
Oh my god, I think you are my candy soulmate…
