Chip Day at Last!

I forgot to mention this in the last blog about fitness, but I'm excited that April's over, because that means today is Chip Day!

When I need a snack I generally go for the salty over the sweets. A few months ago I discovered that the only food in my apartment were condiments and 4-6 different bags of chips, all somewhere between half and three-quarters empty. This was approximately right between New Years and Lent, so I decided to make a resolution: Buy only 1 bag of chips per month.

So far I've been good about keeping this goal, even though it usually means I go without potato chips from approximately the 5th to the 30th/31st of the month. Last month it was Cool Ranch Doritos. This month- to be determined. Maybe tortilla chips to get me through Cinco de Mayo. In any case, soon I'll have chips and condiments again, instead of just condiments. It's a big day.

And, you learn something new everyday: March 14th is National Potato Chip Day! That might have to be a 2-bag month.
