Here lies my favorite dressing and dipping sauce, Ranch buried here next to her mother, my favorite potato french fries. It was a sad yet happy day as my friend Michael and I kicked off our first day of giving up ranch dressing and french fries. This is a 30 challenge that we are doing for fun and of course it wouldn't hurt our health at all. It may seem stupid but i think the ranch will be the hardest thing to give up. Now what will I put on my salad was my first thought and then came my second thought, what will i dip my fries in! I laughed as i realized that I had completely forgot about giving up the french fries because i was worried about what i was going to do with out ranch! I very excited for our new little adventure, I lovE challenges and it will be a fun competition to see how well we both do.
As I was doing so well with the day. Ranch and french fries were not an option not even a thought I receive a bbm from michael and it read "No Fries Day One- as I left my apartment I new quitting cold turkey would have psychological effects on me but I didn't think it would fully alter me this soon. On the way to work, as I pass the golden arches, the mecca of the greatest fries, that is McDonald's, I imagined the hot tingle of the crispy fry as I place it on my tounge, I could feel the joy I used to know every time I saw the large container, hoping every time the workers overflowed the box so I always had that extra surprise of sweet fries at the bottom of my bag. I couldn't resist the urge to go through thru drive thru, my heart racing as a line of ten cars behind me honk their horns and the intercom repeating its robotic sales pitch 'would you like to try our new angus burger, how may I help you' I snapped back to reality, drove off, the smell of grease and potatoes filled my car from the restaurant, the scent overtook my senses....I crashed into a snow bank.....(Story by Michael K, coming soon to a barnes and noble near you)" obviously he was just kidding but the story was a great use of imagination and I give him props, we are gonna need it to get through the first 30 day challenge.
