Holiday Treats

I want to know why on earth everyone makes fattening cookies and fudge and candies and cakes and then distributes them to unsuspecting workplaces like they are doing something nice. I doubt that there are many Americans in this day and age who are not deeply concerned about the fat content of their food intake. Nobody wants to be fat and I believe we are all struggling to eat healthy and be active. It would really be nice if these goodie-givers would drop by the office once a year with celery sticks and low-fat dip along with their holiday cheer. Then I might feel inspired to send a thank you card.

The mother- and grandmother-in-law will be landing at an airport near me within the hour. Time to head to the arrivals gate. :)
