just popping in to say

that over the weekend I heard something that I thought was pretty funny- we had friends over for most of the weekend. At one point one of them had the audacity to bring in a huge glass of cow milk and drink it at our table. I went into autopilot so as not to gag and say anything, but thankfully DH spoke up and asked that this person respectfully not do this again. OK so with that, here's the funny part. Somehow we got to talking about breaking bones. Now, *knock on wood*, I have never had a broken bone in my entire life. Nor was I ever a kid who drank milk. Or an adult- it got me sick (more on that later). The only people who said in this conversation "ohh my god I've broken so many bones in my life, I can't even tell you" were the guy gulping the huuuge glass of milk, and his wife, who also is a big dairy fan.

You see, both clinical and population studies show that milk-drinkers tend to have more bone breaks than people who consume milk infrequently or not at all.

I had to laugh. It was either that or throw up. LOL
