Why Do You Crave? Part 2

Tweet   For every craving, there is an equal and opposite cause & probably another craving right behind it.   Say what?   What do you mean that there’s another craving right behind it?  I get the cause, that makes sense, but another craving?   Not fair!!!   The reason why cravings are so important…

What Do You Crave? Part 1

Tweet So, be honest, what do you crave the most? Is it a particular food or drink?  Is it something more vague like sugar or salt?  Is it a family of foods or just an “anything goes” kind of craving?

So You’re Stuck On A Desert Island…

Tweet So you’re stuck on a desert island… Sound like a bad movie? Or a tv show you might have seen before? Maybe, you think. But I’m going to put a different spin on it. We get some wacky weather sometimes.  Really, if you think about it, weather has become an obsession for some people….

You Don’t NEED A New Year’s Resolution

Tweet I know how crazy it sounds coming from me, but I really don’t believe in New Year’s Resolutions. I think that they are too stressful and too demanding. What if you have a bad day and fall off the resolution wagon?  You just call it quits? You’d be suprised how many times that happens. Go…

Not So Happy it’s Wintertime?
