1. Learn more about it The best way to improve your relationship with food is to learn as much as you can about it. Learn where it comes from, learn new foods, how to prepare different meals, etc. The more you learn about the food you eat, the closer you come to it. This way you view food as a friend, and less like some outside force you need to control. 2. Choose the right diet What I should really say here is "choose the most efficient yet comfortable way of eating" but that's just too ...

How A CrockPot Saved My Life
Or maybe...How a crockpot could save my life if I could figure out what to make in it.... So, in 2009, I forced John to go black friday shopping with me. We got a crock pot for $5 and promptly forgot about it. A couple years ago (I think) John made chili in it once. I finally made use of it a couple weeks ago… and now I’m lightweight in love. Mornings are easy for me. (And you know this, man.) I can get up early and get tons done. Evenings….notsomuch. I’m still really hurried with ...
