The Midnight Mom in Me

05Mar09

It all started with a stupid commercial, around midnight tonight, from Total cereal. It boasted how their product is more healthier than the new kid on the block, Kashi. Really? With such a gauntlet thrown (and insomnia in full affect), I decided to go see for myself.

Sure enough, Total kicks my cereal’s (Frosted Mini-Wheats) a- Ahhh, hell. Free samples. The next couple of hours were a blur. Here’s what I remember…
