Can't Hit 'em, Can't Lay Off 'em

Do you have any movie quotes that, for whatever reason, have stuck in your head and you find yourself saying them when the situation is right? I have several. For example, anytime I am waiting to see if something will happen, like begging a red light to turn green because I need to go to the bathroom, I say "Come on Schwartz" like Lonestar, Barf, Princess Vespa and Dot say when they are trying to switch the vacuum from suck to blow. Or when I find something I have been looking for I either sing "I found it" like Cera does when she thinks she has found the Great Valley, or I say "Ah haha haha. Here it is, here it is" like Mary Poppins says when she finds her tape measure.

Well today I am saying "Can't hit 'em, can't lay off 'em" like Dottie says about Kit when they are at the big game at the end of the movie. Have you ever had a Fiber One bar? They are awesome! I love granola bars of all kind. Fiber One bars are SUPER tasty granola bars that are a good size and, because they are high in fiber, they are only 2 points. So they have been my granola bar of choice since I discovered them several months ago. The only thing is, they hurt my stomach. I mean, really bad. So I know that I shouldn't eat them. But it's just one of those things... I can't take it, but I can't lay off it! I love Fiber One bars!

Thankfully, I have discovered an alternative to my tasty Fiber Ones. Weight Watchers makes a granola bar that is called the Sweet and Salty bar. It is different... no chocolate... but really good. They are smaller than Fiber One bars, but not so small that I eat one and don't feel fed. They are satisfying, and for only two points, a decent snack. I will be buying more on Saturday!
