Has The Food Pyramid Been Replaced?

Well, they say that the pyramid was confusing and caused obseity. Now they call it the food plate. They also say to use a smaller plate so you feel like you have eaten enough.
Well, we have a "critter" that is completly focused on the "food plate."  Our critter enjoys vegetables and fruit.
Fran went out this morning and came back in this morning with a long face. He said, "the deer ate the tops of the green beans." They also had some tomatoes and for dessert they ate some peaches.
My new  dwarf peach trees were just full of peaches and the other day one of them had three peaches hanging on for dear life. I was so disappointed.
Before he was killed our Sheltie, Alex, chased the wild animals away, we miss Alex a lot.  He was such a good friend and a guard dog for hungry deer.

  1. Oh that's sad. :-( They should print paper plates like that. People will just keep filling them up, especially the dessert plate!
