Welcome back to the odd and whimsical poetery of the Peeps related to holidaze! Let’s investigate what today is, because we need all the holidaze we can celebrate, right? Furtunately, our country is back to more or less normal government, about which all critters are very happy!
Still, every day seems to be many holidays. Which is good, because we all have our favorites. So I will pick out one or two, and you can click the link above if you’re curious about the rest. This is an Open Thread, so please feel free to add your favorite pomes and photoes and holidaze for today in the Comments!
Today is Eat What You Want Day!
Throw caution to the wind, put a pause on your healthy diet, and eat what you want today. Get rid of the list of foods you aren't supposed to eat, and eat your favorite food or foods, even if they are horrible for you. Eat something high in trans or saturated fats, high in sugar, or high in salt. Some say that you must still stay within your calorie range, and can just eat the type of things you want, not an unlimited amount of them. But, others say you are able to eat as much of anything you want. Of course, the one reason you shouldn't fully celebrate the day is if you have food allergies or other medical conditions that keep you from eating certain foods.
Seven
I'll take sweet, any day over sour,
Mouth-watering pastries depend on the flour.
Dessert usually comes, at the end of the meal,
Sugary sensations, the taste is surreal.
Belgian chocolate truffle cake,
Cures every single, emotional ache.
Some may say, it's a bit too rich,
I'm in love, I'll never switch.
How about grandma's apple pie,
I don't care, if goes to my thigh.
When I see it, I think of heaven,
Feel so lucky, call me Seven.

Elsewhere, the author states that we should eat moar fruits and veggies. I agree totally! 😁
