She use to have a scoop of peanut butter on a spoon, but a little boy in her class has allergies to it. So she tells me " I can't have it because Donahue is alltic to it , i don't want to get him sick " I tell her it comes off in the bath but she still won't have it. Talk about extreme. She is funny.

As far as your question about meat, I was at least seven, if not a little older, before I started eating meat. I just hated the texture SO much. My parents used to use protein powder in things as well as soy to help me get enough protein. ~Hillary 22, RSS --- Marcy Conley wrote: > Hillary, > Congrats! you picked your school.
