Good morning and happy Monday ladies! It is a new day, and a new week! Let's start it off with a QOTD!
What is your favourite snack food?
Come on, we all have guilty little pleasures and things we love to chow down on, so let's munch and share!
My fave snack food has to be chocolate. I am just a huge sucker for the stuff! ![]()
Re: ? Question of the Day! ?
I have a sweet tooth, but when it comes to snacking I normally reach for hummous and pita. I could eat hummous by the bucketload. My favorite unhealthy snack has to be Doritos.
4th BFP-August 2014- Due May 12, 2015

.it's bad because i get the bucket at the movies (with FREE refills) and before I leave I get another refill for home
