I was reading Pischina’s blog

I was reading Pischina’s blog and she wrote, “If I put salsa on my eggs that is so hot that my nose is running and my tongue hurts, Am I burning more calories?” I found this concept to be hysterically amusing. My best friend, Chelsey, finally installed AOL’s IM at work today (yeah!) so I sent it to her. She wrote back, “um, no. but, if you drink ice cold water to cool the burn, you’re burning 25 calories per 8 oz. glass. does that help?” That in turn made me laugh even harder because the concept of burning the calories drinking cold water was simply amusing. I had to ask just why that would happen, and she explained that, “your body burns those calories heating up the water to 98.7 degrees. cool, huh?” You know what Chelsey? That is pretty cool. See, if you hadn’t been on IM I would have never learned that useful tidbit of information. I missed you honey-bunch, I am glad you’re back!
