Maybe I'll bring them up to school today. <br /><br />@Kit-mindful eating can completely blow your mind! Have you read Animal, Vegetable, Miracle by Barbara Kingsolver?? Good stuff!Karihttps://www.blogger.com/profile/04779463691582868798noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8308921546745481048.post-91291230918558107582010-04-13T05:59:50.380-07:002010-04-13T05:59:50.380-07:00What a neat thing to do, Kari!

I've been looking at how I approach food, myself, and committing to a sort-of discipline of considering each thing I put in my mouth for its meaning (that is, why am I eating this?) and its real value to me (that is, its nutritive value). It's an exercise in getting rid of some of the clutter in my eating habits. Who would have thought that a scant handful of raisins after dinner would taste as good as a bowl of ice cream? (well, you can't get raisins in Chubby Hubby flavor, of course) Or that having apple slices available would make it easier to choose fruit over cookies? It's a revelation to me.<br /><br />Thanks for your post. I might have to consider if I could do that too.Lilylouhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/02328027965155428624noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8308921546745481048.post-11004186675748608292010-04-12T23:55:35.176-07:002010-04-12T23:55:35.176-07:00Oooh - chives from the garden!

We've had some de facto austerity weeks recently, I must admit, mostly through lack of going to the store rather than intentionality!corinnakhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/03744461217031468850noreply@blogger.com
