Twas the eve of the New Year and so Katie said,
"What shall I eat before going to bed?
The New Year's tomorrow, my diet begins.
What can I eat before this freedom ends?
Pizza and bread sticks,
Popcorn and drinks.
Cakes and candies and cookies, Me thinks.
When the New Year gets here, I'll begin anew."
Then she looked at the clock and it said 12:02.
The New Year had snuck in, her diet had failed.
She took a big bite, with a resonding, "Oh, well!
There is nothing that says I must start tonight,
I have a whole year to get this thing right."
If you're reading our tale, and it rings true to you,
Here are some things that we think you should do:
Cut up your veggies, put your fruit tray out.
Make sure the junk isn't hanging about.
Ring in the New year with Friends you hold dear,
For that is the best way to start a New Year!
