my life with a health nut

mom i love ya, but sometimes the health food can get a little extreme

i live in a house of health. we all have gym memberships, we walk. and i mean like 20 mile walks.bike rides, weight training, the list goes on. but the worst, the absolute worst, is the health food. have you ever had a bowl of oat meal? sprinkled with bee pollen?  and i'm sure you eat your vegetables right? so do i. through a straw. i've had some pretty stange combo's in my day, but the srangest was last night's salad.

my mom made us salad for dinner, we were out of hamburger so we added chopped pork instead, this in itself wasn't that weird, i mean sure, pork wouldn't have been my first choice, but it's not that awful. then i noticed that she was peeling a grapefruit. i figured, ok, grapefruit. heart healthy snack for dessert. then...[gulp]  she.... oh  good heavens what is she doing? ....don't put that on the- too late. she sprinkled grapfruit all over our salad. yummy yum yum. on the menu for tonight, fruity pork, a chefs special. before we dug in, i convinced her to let me take a picture.
the worst part?      it wasn't half bad.
