And lately it is so hot here, it could only be iced tea.Suzannehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/06515738513698526073noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-9082841708976766505.post-24510775399946736352011-06-17T21:49:38.990-05:002011-06-17T21:49:38.990-05:00Elise, I have read your blog, loved the photo of t...Elise, I have read your blog, loved the photo of the road sign.

Luckily I'm not big into wine (mead, on the other hand... But it's too expensive to indulge in often.) On the other hand, there's some ice cream burning a hole in my freezer (talk about freezerburn.) x.x It's sometimes a struggle to keep my paws out of the kitchen. I find that giving myself eye candy instead is a lovely solution - by sitting out on my balcony with my flowers, I've got a whole door between me and the fridge, and lots of pretty flowers to distract me from cravings. Oh, and tea and whole grains. Lots and lots of tea (no sugar) keeps me full and hydrated, and whole grains keep me full and my blood sugar from dropping, so I eat less.Rebekkah Nileshttp://www.juturnafaerthing.blogspot.comnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-9082841708976766505.post-19570341726410672782011-06-16T10:38:34.391-05:002011-06-16T10:38:34.391-05:00Gum is a great suppressor of the cravings.

It's really hard to lose weight especially when you're stressed with writing deadlines and a grumpy muse wanting dark chocolate. :D Good luck with both your goals :) Also a new follower :) stop by and visit me at http://gladiatorspen.blogspot.comElisehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/12567420139472596391noreply@blogger.com
