Heres what I did today. I got up at 2:30 PM. Im nocturnal. I even was as a baby. After a highly transformative conversation with Benjamin Perry, I am finally OWNing that I am nocturnal. It is when I have energy. It is when I am most creative. And I love to get up sometimes, after a few hours sleep in the early morning. That is a really productive time for me too. But today, I needed to sleep in. Why? Because last night after an incredible evening and amazing dinner with wonderful friends, Michael & I went to Kroger. And they have raw, shelled pistachios now (yay!) But when I was was getting the pistachios, something incredibly dangerous caught my eye - chocolate granola. Gluten-free chocolate granola. (The second ingredient was cane sugar.) The name of this opponent with the unfair advantage of being both chocolate and gluten-free, was... Pure Bliss Naughty But Nice Granola. I caved. So what was the ONLY logical accompaniment to this sugar drug fix I had decided to buy? Chocolate Hazelnut milk, of course! Its like Nutella masquerading as a smooth, creamy rich drink. If youve never had it, I suggest you dont; it will forever call your name as you walk down the aisle. We drove home munching on dark chocolate covered raisins. I ate two bowls of Naughty But Nice deliciousness. And a tbsp of peanut butter to ever so slightly lessen the effects of the carb coma to follow. Of course, when I woke up today, what was I craving? The liquid nutella was staring at me from the top shelf of the refrigerator. At least I only had one bowl. I went out, bought lots of veggies to begin juicing tomorrow. And fruit too. It was a pre-cleanse Naughty But Nice carb binge. And that stuff is leaving the house tomorrow. My kids will love it. :) And even though it is 1 AM now, Im gonna do a workout. And eat some butternut squash. No more sugar.
