Sonnets from Suburbia: Diet Nazi’s
In this episode Lady Penelope bemoans the ever-changing rules of diet and nutrition and calls those who insist on their programs “Diet Nazis”.
The things that I adore are bad for me,
or so I’m told by ev’rything I’ve read.
My Diet Coke? Go fig! How could that be?
French fries and hamburgers might leave me dead.
Nutrition Nazis really have some gaul.
Their rules are always in a state of flux.
They’d love to take away my alcohol.
We’re in their cross hairs like some sitting ducks.
Can’t offer up a food that’s not organic
unless you want to hear a mournful wail.
But just for laughs, to put them in a panic
O’ make an orphan of their baby kale!
To them there’s nothing deadlier than gluten,
‘cept sitting down to lunch with Vladmir Putin.–
The tomato behind The Three Tomatoes.
Cheryl Benton, aka the “head tomato” is founder and publisher of The Three Tomatoes, a digital lifestyle magazine for “women who aren’t kids”. Having lived and worked for many years in New York City, the land of size zero twenty-somethings, she was truly starting to feel like an invisible woman. She created The Three Tomatoes just for the fun of it as the antidote for invisibility and sent it to 60 friends. Today she has thousands of friends and is chief cheerleader for smart, savvy women who want to live their lives fully at every age and every stage. She is the author of the novel, "Can You See Us Now?" and co-author of a humorous books of quips, "Martini Wisdom." Because she's lived a long time, her full bio won't fit here.
