That's Just Nuts!

It's Betty's Quiz Time: Guess how many points are in three tablespoons of cashews? I'll give you a minute to picture it. Cup your hand and imagine a pile of nuts there. That's three tablespoons. Not even enough to fill a child-sized Ikea bowl.

Got your guess yet? 

It's 4. More than a point per tablespoon. What the heck?! I was all set to pour myself a dainty portion to accompany my lunch of a HoneyCrisp (mmmmmmm....best apple ever) and light string cheese. But hold the phone! Yep, these are the same cashews we buy in 50-gallon jars at Costco. Boohoo for Betty.

Today's point tally so far, realigned for Veronica's pleasure:
coffee 0
banana (unripe but still) 2
Fiber One bar 2
48 pretzels 2
HoneyCrisp apple 1 
TJ's light string cheese 1

Vern, I've got another GS training session down yonder again tonight. What say I leave early and stop by your house for WW-sanctioned home cookin'? Whatcha got for me? -B.
