Some of you may know, after being inspired by people like Kirby Larson and Laini Taylor, that I recently joined Weight Watchers. I got a trainer at the gym for a few weeks, too, so being healthy is a top priority right now.

For the last three years I've eaten granola, plain yogurt, and berries for breakfast ALMOST every day. That means almost one THOUSAND breakfastses of granola -- my favorite brand being Golden Temple Coconut and Almond. I get it in the bulk section, so there's no ingredients label on it. I just assumed it was made of tree bark and all things organic. On Weight Watchers granola is kind of off the menu. Instead you have oatmeal or shredded wheat. That's fine, but I miss my granola.

Well, until last night.

I dreamed that I stumbled upon a little known fact -- that granola was made of ... PUPPIES! And big tubby dogs. In the dream I saw a woman dragging a dog up a metal slide, some horrible Monty Pythonesque abattoir.

I said, "This can't be!"

And the woman replied, "Granola labels say 'Gluten Free,' not 'Vegetarian!'"

I'm not sure why I'm blogging about this, other than I hope the Golden Temple company will contact me with pictures of their granola factory with proof it is pug and retriever free. Or maybe Kirby or Laini will talk me down. I was thinner in the dream...

In other news, my favorite book-designer-not-currently-employed-as-a-book-designer looked at my Bun dummy and tore it to pieces in the best way. I just printed off the new pages to take down to the shed to redo the dummy. NOW I'm ready for the next phase of work!
