Alas: I have nothing to say that requires any thought at all. It's year-end at my office, and I'm lucky I can still remember my way home at the end of the day. Also, my brain is being eaten by Sudoku, which up until two weeks ago I scoffed at. Certain coworkers who shall remain nameless have much to answer for.

Cheese of all sorts, really (even Laurel's post about the processed-to-death gift basket made me slaver!) -- one of the hardest things about watching what I eat is strictly limiting the cheese intake, but string cheese (I use the light kind, even, which is only a single point) and LC's fat-free variety have been invaluable for helping out on that score. Even if what I really want is a good sharp cheddar.
I eat yogurt or cereal (hot or cold) in the morning, so that takes care of some of the dairy. I'll sometimes drink a small glass of milk with a couple of ginger snaps, which are surprisingly low in points, as a bedtime snack, if I still have a dairy to kill by the end of the day.
I did try the grated string cheese trick last night, a burrito with sausage, onion, plain yogurt, salsa, jalapeno, and cheese. YUMMY. So yummy I might have another tonight.

But yeah, I could just smell those cheesy cheeses in Laurel's post, and feel the wax coating. But I'll stay strong!
