Sunflower Seeds

You know you aren’t supposed to eat things before you go to bed. They say it gives you weird dreams. Gives you gas. Makes you bloated. Causes you to gain weight. And of course crumbs.
This is what I have heard all my life. I love sunflower seeds. I need then before I go to bed. When I was younger I had bed time stories, now I have books and my lovely seeds. It is a comfort to put one in my mouth and suck the salty goodness off before cracking it in between my teeth to liberate the tiny well-deserved seed. It not only gives me something to snack on, but it gives me something to do while I read away the hours. Without my seeds, I would probably bite my nails too much or yell a lot. Neither of those are viable options at bed time, so my seeds will stay.
So ha....to they who say I shouldn't eat them before I go to bed. No gas, no bloating. Seeds are forever apart of me as the salt is apart of the delicious concoction that is the sunflower seed.
