I have a super-busy week at work this week. So I'll only be making a couple quick posts this week.

First, much like Amerigo Vespucci or Jonas Salk, I have made a wonderful discovery. The other day they were having a Hot Pocket sale at the grocery store near me, so I picked up a few boxes. Some of you are no doubt saying, "How dare you eat Hot Pockets when you're trying to lose weight! That's not real food. It's loaded with chemicals!" To which I say, scram, I don't need you're lecture. I mean, come on, when I want a hot meal without a big deal, what am I going to pick? Or, how about this hypothetical question. Suppose a hungry bunch shows up for lunch. Seriously now, what the hell else am I going to pick? That's right.

Or how about this third verse that I didn't remember at all.

Anywho, I had some Hot Pockets and I began wondering what they would taste like if I cooked them without the patented "crisping sleeve." The answer, at least in my opinion, is that they taste ten times better. You get a soft, chewy texture rather than the normal Hot Pockets taste which I would describe as "cheese sauce and Grade Z beef wrapped in a giant communion wafer." If you have some Hot Pockets around, you might want to give it a shot.

My next experiment is to microwave items that don't need it, like hotdogs or Gobstoppers in my unused crisping sleeves. We'll see how that turns out.

I also weighed in last weekend. The weight continues to come off slow and steady.
