While sitting at the Pizza Hut tonight, the fact that I have the world's best sister just smacked me in the face. I mean, I've known for years what a precious treasure she is, but tonight was the kicker.
We were enjoying our 3 Points per slice Veggie Lover's pizza and I was toying with the idea of a third slice. I'm really watching my portions, but I had been saving up Points all day in anticipation of pizza, so after much deliberation I decided to go for it.
It's the simple things that speak so loudly. Like when she said, "Ooh, don't take that one! It's a waste of Points - look at that huge air bubble! Here take this one with the extra onions and no air bubble."
I love that woman.
I was born a semi-diva. I married a redneck. Through the magic of osmosis or just because of a serious lack of sophistication over the years I have found a balance of the two that make me who I am today. And then I write about it all, much to the chagrin of my mother.

LOL. If I bite into something that isn't "awesome," I spit it out so as not to waste points!
lol! Now that is a good friend! I've just found your blog and am really enjoying it. I plan on coming back for a good laugh!
Cool Whip was my no-Points secret! Of course, I don't think that gives one license to eat it straight from the bowl...:)
Yup, your sister rocks!
THAT is love!
Jennifer, yeah, I haven't even cracked the plastic yet on my BL DVD, so you're at least ahead of me on that one!
Natalie, I do too!! Why eat it if it's going to suck AND take your points?!
Kelly, when we were kids I never dreamed that one day my little sister would become the friend she is to me today. Glad you stopped in - don't be a stranger!
