Of course that totally meant that at 3 o’clock I was starving for an afternoon snack.
Now in the bad-old-days this would have meant a trip to the vending machine.. and then an agonizing 10 minutes staring at all the sugary and salty offerings.. but those days are behind me.. and luckily I thought ahead.
I have a tube of “Ones” on my desk. These are individually wrapped prunes. Now don’t go scrunching up your face.. these are not something that only old people eat. Frankly, prunes are yummy and sweet and aid in .. ahem.. digestion**. Getting them individually wrapped just makes them seem like candies. So instead of dashing for the vending machine and wolfing down a chocolate monstrosity.. instead I had two of these scrumptious prunes.. which totally tided me over until dinner.
**prunes are high in fiber which “aides in maintaining digestive health”
