Day 16 Tidbits

By · 4 Comments · In Rebecca

Arugula is my newest taste treat. It’s a ’greener’ taste than I am used to liking, but, as Jane predicted, my taste for green has increased. You can’t know how miraculous that is for this beige-food-loving girl…unless you too have had an aversion to greens for much of your life. I haven’t tried arugula in [...]

The thing about the recipe for success is that it changes from day to day, from person to person, and yet, it is possible to follow it…pretty sure!

By · 5 Comments · In Rebecca

There is no real proof that what I call “I” ever lived in a young slim body that fit skin-tight. I can’t prove it. I can show you pictures and you can ask my mother, and even some of my friends, but what they’ll tell you is just rumor based on a vague memory that [...]

Day 9 Finding The Real Problem

By · 3 Comments · In Rebecca

Ok. So cake is not the only food item that relentlessly calls my name. I would have to say that almost any sugary thing has direct access to my want-line. In order for me to completely recover from sugar addiction I need to be proactive. It was suggested that I make a list of foods [...]

Aftermath
The world here has been washed clean by wind and rain. The skies are Carolina blue, and there is a cool breeze. It will be in the 90’s again by afternoon, but the gift of this unusual August morning does not go unappreciated! As I sip my collards and fruit smoothie through a [...]
