Looking together in the same direction.

Looking together in the same direction.
Sea otters hold hands while they sleep so they don't drift apart.

"Instructions for living a life.

Pay attention.

Be astonished.

Tell about it."

"The universe is a celebration.....Wowee!"

     (I did read the book, "A Year of No Sugar" by Eve Schaub.  I was very disappointed in it.  Her concept was good, though.  She meant a year with no fructose.  She bought and baked with gallons of powdered dextrose and also bought glucose syrup.  Her kids could choose to eat whatever they wanted when not at home. She found that 29 of 30 breakfast items offered at her children's elementary school contained fructose and that sweet treats were rampant.  Each person in the family got an exception food, so she drank all the wine she wanted, her kids had all the jam they wanted. Once a month they had regular desserts.  When on vacation for two weeks they had desserts. All in all, they probably ate less fructose, but I was hoping to read about someone's experience with no added sugars. She did say their taste buds changed and regularly sweetened foods no longer tasted good to them. I am going to continue my trial of 30 days with no added sugars.  Today is day 6.  I hope my taste buds change, too, and I no longer crave sweets, other than fruits.)
