A teacher gave her fifth grade class an assignment to get their parents to tell them a story with a moral at the end of it.
The next day the kids came back and one by one began to tell their stories. " Tony, do you have a story to share?"

Had received a dressing down because i had oedemas (in my legs). NO salt – over – well – yes I started… Now I know why that fairy tale in which the three daughters of the king were asked by their father: “how do you describe my love for you?” – the first said sugar – the second said like my best dress and the third answered: LIKE SALT… Only those who know how food tastes without salt – know how right the third daughter was… Well – the father was stupid – he kicked her out of the house… After years – when he tasted food without salt because they had no more salt left in the palace – he remembered how right his third daughter was and was very upset of himself… He then regretted bitterly what he said and did to her… WELL at least he knew at last – some NEVER know not even when they are dying – no – that is no longer abt salt… ;)
OK so no more salt – nettle tea and not standing nor sitting too long… For a housewife THAT IS ABSOLUTELY NO PROBLEM – right? Well coffee and salt – because coffee too – kept these oedemas alive – brilliant – how great!

I found this to be an interesting insight into the end result of nanny-state government: A nation incapable of thinking or planning for themselves. The most interesting bit is the last few paragraphs.

CARRIE DASHOW dropped a large dollop of lemon sorbet into a glass of Guinness, stirred, drank and proclaimed that it tasted like a “chocolate shake.”
HOW’S IT DO THAT?

We really have no idea WHAT's in that curious blue bottle we spotted Justin with as he was leaving club Opera Thursday night....
Ok, so it's not alcohol, it's just a flask-shaped bottle of Liquid Salvation Water!
He's still sexy, though!

Hello there my sugar friends :-). I just took a look back at the last one of these that I did and it was in July! To be honest, I’ve been high and dry on ideas for these music fixes.
