During my freshman year of high school I took a Spanish class in which I sat across from a girl that I recognized from the school soccer team that I was a part of.

So let’s go ahead and get all the food products out of the way, shall we? 1) Milk – skim milk in cereal is acceptable, but that’s it. I once tried cereal with water, because I thought it would be great if I could eliminate milk from my diet entirely. But it was disgusting, so the skim milk remains. But I keep a close eye on that expiration…
