How many pepper pieces can a porky person pack in his puss?

Food Log:  Breakfast: 2 hashbrown patties, 2 fried eggs.  Lunch:  Ham Cresent (ground ham in a potato dough crust with cheese sauce on top), corn.   Dinner: Burrito (flour tortilla, refried beans, shredded cheese, tomatoes, lettuce, sour cream, ans salsa), 1 handful of tortilla chips.  Day snacks: 2 bananas, 4 Thin Mint cookies, green pepper slices with ranch dressing, 1 small orange.  Night snacks: 2 1/2 ginger snap cookies.

Activity Log: The Walk of Life (at work).  About 1.5 miles.

Thoughts: Kelley is always trying to get me to eat carrots.  I like carrots, but after two or three small ones, they become kind of boring and bland.  And I don't like them cooked.  Steamed is fine because they are still crisp, and still taste like a carrot.  I also don't mind them cooked into a stew, or in soup, or something like that.  Carrots are fine, but they don't really do it for me.

Last week I was thinking of light snacks I could have, and I thought a sliced green bell pepper with a bit of ranch dressing sounded really delicious, so I asked Kelley to get some peppers when she went to the store.  I cut some up this morning, and had them for a snack.  They were quite tasty!  I started with just a half a pepper, but I could cut up a whole pepper and have two snacks for the day.  I can also mix it up with red, yellow, and orange peppers.  They are much better than drab old carrots.
