Myth:
Does sugar really give you an energy rush?

As I was cleaning the house, shampooing the couch and taking down the Christmas decorations Harper decides to test this myth. You see, she had just opened a present from her Grandma J and was excited to see a plastic candy cane full of Reeses Pieces. (One of our favorite treats.) I opened the container for her and went back to my cleaning. Not really putting two and two together that 1) Harper is a sugar junkie and 2) I just gave her a large container of candy. In my ignorance she downed the entire thing. I figured no big deal she just wont get any candy tomorrow. At about 11pm when she was still bouncing off the walls, singing at the top of her lungs, crawling in the guinea pig crate and falling down with laughter I decided that this myth was true.
