Things were a little crazy (and a little lazy) the past week. My mom and sister came to visit from Texas! It’s fun to catch up, though in the electronic age there isn’t really much to catch up on I suppose. Thanks to Facebook and emails and unlimited long distance, it isn’t like we don’t get to share the important stuff. However, nothing beats actual live interaction, especially when kids are involved.

In real life, I am probably not much like I seem here. In fact, those who knew me when I was writing for a less open site, they can probably vouch for that. I am way more censored now. ANYONE could read this, so I am more reserved.
I love to get my fry on. Sure, I try to feed my family healthy foods. We have a garden that provides us with many of our vegetables; plus strawberries, grapes and apples grow in the yard. We don’t eat out all that often, but enough that my youngest knows to say “mmm” when he sees the Golden Arches or any given fast food joint. I watch Jamie Oliver’s Food Revolution and rejoice that our children’s private school serves primarily “homemade” foods.

Nothing sounds good. Oh, have no fear. I am not wasting away or anything. I just can’t seem to put my finger on what it is that I would enjoy eating.

It seems safe to say that most of us, at point or another, have been heavier than we wanted to be. I say this because January, that great month of resolutions, is chock full of reminders that we wish we were kinder to our bodies. Ads for nicotine patches and gums prevail, and weight loss ads are downright unavoidable.
