Musings of a snacker

I just discovered an AMAZING 4 point sweet snack- kind of on accident. Hungry Girl suggested a bunch of 100 calorie snacks a few weeks ago, all equaling 2 points. I mixed and matched, and had 2 tsp of chocolate chips and 8 mini marshmallows (cut in half so it was like I was having 16 of them) made into a small snack. This was a "sugar emergency" snack only- I know it has no redeeming nutritional qualities. Pat brought me back some dried cherries from Traverse City a week ago, and I can have a 1/4 cup of them for 2 points (plus, I needed dried fruit, and MI fruit, for my nutrition bingo game). Both the cherries and the HG snack were in my drawer at work. I reached in to grab one, and grabbed both. Mixed it up, and it was like a party in my mouth for 4 points! And WOW did it kick the sweet tooth- for now :)
