See these little guys? These are my new Zen, my “high,” I love them… almost too much! Everyone in the office can attest! Margaret brought in a 2 pound bag a few weeks ago, and it was bad. I think I ate atleast ⅔ of them myself! Gosh, get a grip Kate! Don’t get rid of your membership at the Y! It’s the chewy with the crunch, in a…
