Why Gretchen Is So Darn Awesome

A guest blog by Q

I asked her for a topic to write about for my guest blog, and she graciously responded with a list of awesome, intelligent, and thought provoking ideas. (I think I may have proved String Theory with just that list.) The topic of her awesomeness was on her list. Therefore, without any further ado--

Oh, wait. She said, "Kidding! Seriously!" after that particular item. Those parentheses always throw me off.

Well, in that case... Hmm...

Oh! I have it: Various Snack Foods and Their Merits. [insert evil laughter here]

Triscuits: Salty, crunchy, great texture, and with lots of whole grain! Wonderful for road trips. The recipes on the back of the box look fantastic.

Wheat Thins: Sweet, light, guilt-free snacking. I recommend Honey flavored.

Goldfish: Mildly cheesy with a pleasant texture, and not too salty into the bargain. Besides, what other snack smiles back?

Cheez-Its: Big flavor, small cracker. Very cheesy, very good. (Note to self: Try with apple)

Cheese Nips: A pale imitation of Cheez-Its.

Breakfast Cereal: And don't tell me you've never had a bowl of cereal in the afternoon.

Apples: Yum. And Apples to Apples is a pretty fun game, too.

Apples and Cheese: Go ahead. Be European.

Ritz: Buttery and far too good for your own health.

Ritz with peanut butter and marshmallows baked until the marshmallows are golden and warm and wonderful: 'Nuff said.

Popcorn: It's a whole grain, which means it must be good for you, right?

Ooh...cheez-its are the most addicting crackers.

Cereal is good anytime of day.

I had popcorn for a pre-dinner snack last night, and then I forgot to have dinner. That almost never happens.

Apple and Cheese-Yum, yum.
