Guilty Pleasures

Guilty pleasures.

It can be a television show that you are embarrassed to watch but can’t stay away. Trashy novel? Maybe that. Not a pre-teen but love Justin Bieber? Uh-huh.

For me, my guilty pleasures are all related to food. I don’t have them often, but give me a bag of Funions and I’m happy. For some, their guilty pleasure is a little Chef Boy-ar-Dee Beefaroni. Well, I’m here to make it a little less guilty and a little more pleasurable.
