And it’s so funny, because Chris and I were just today! talking about food as a source of fall-back, and habit, more than food as sustenance and food for growth and vitality. My brain tells me certain foods are “comfort” foods, and yet my body says “No, thank you!” And then there are the occasional foods that both my head and my body seem to heartily agree are fantastic, and those that, well, aren’t. It’s a definite struggle for me now (and has been), to associate between what I WANT to eat, and what I NEED to eat, but it’s something I really am trying hard to do, because I’m committed to being healthier, which I have all the faith in the world will make me happier, regardless of my overall size.

Sure, eat all the fruits and vegetables, indulge in tofu. But you know on that rainy day when you just need something cozy, there’s only one thing to make you whole. And that is grilled cheese.

Except if it has fruit in it because fruit does NOT belong in cake.

And also comforting yourself with the warm blood of stolen infants? Best line ever!

Unless, you really are doing that. Then, well, I can’t really be talking to you anymore.

Food question: I think it is about moderation. And I think there’s nothing better than sitting down with some Alias and a chocolate chip cookie when your mind is fruitlessly churning.

But I also have some rather sticky places of high sensitivity and am very interested to see how my diet affects that. If my overall quality of life is better without some things, I might have to seriously consider giving them up.

Maybe.
