On being nutty

You know you're a health nut when these things are typical at your home:
  • Your children think they're getting "Sprite" when you give them mineral water.
  • Your children give each other chiropractic adjustments on the coffee table.
  • You find your children mixing water and milk. When you ask them what they're doing, they reply, "making whey!"

This week, New Daddy met a guy at work who does all of the same healthy stuff we do. It's funny how you realize how odd you are when you meet someone so much like yourself. I think you feel less odd knowing nice, happy people who aren't burdened by thoughts of high fructose corn syrup, trans fats and MSG. But, when you meet someone else who is obsessed with reading labels and knowing the origin of everything that goes into their body; yes, that's when you realize that you're pretty nutty.

Or, when your kids turn to you when handed suckers or candy, "Does this have the bad sugar in it?"
BTW, hi, I found your blog through the interests list. We have several of the same things listed. :-)

Soo I would take it that you are a good example. ;)
