<p><strong>3.</strong>  Like other 80&#8217;s kids, I LOVED the Ghostbusters!  They&#8217;re doing a remake with a female cast.  I can&#8217;t wait to see it&#8230;these chicks are funny!</p>

<strong>4.</strong>  I&#8217;m sure I&#8217;m late the party, but I just starting adding<a href="http://www.amazon.com/PB2-Powdered-Peanut-Butter-6-5/dp/B002GJ9JWS" target="_blank"><strong> PB2</strong></a> to my smoothies.  I was skeptical to buy powdered peanut butter, but it&#8217;s SO good!  It has 85% less fat calories than traidional peanut butter.  A little goes a long way and 2 Tablespoons have 45 calories.  I love how easily it blends and now my chocolate smoothies taste like Reeses Peanut Butter Cups!</p>
