Dec 9: You Know You’re a Health Foodie When…

YOU KNOW YOU’RE A HEALTH FOODIE WHEN…

 

 

 

 

 

“…you plan the next meal before you have finished eating the one before you.”

Just the other day I was out to lunch at a pizza place with about 10 of my girlfriends and we started talking about what we were craving for dinner.  Here we are stuffing our faces with 4 deliciously large pizzas, yet we still can’t stop thinking about how to make our next meal even better. 

While I’m a big believer in taking the time to savor every bite of the food in front of you (instead of being distracted), there are other times when “foodie talk” at the table is absolutely necessary….I wouldn’t have it any other way  :)  

 

How about you? Do you take a break when eating your meals—or do you find yourself eating at your desk, in front of your computer, while watching TV, etc.?

 

Happy Wednesday everyone…and if there’s snow where you are: 1) be safe if you’re driving on the roads or exercising outside  2) go sledding! ;)

What was your favorite thing to do on a “snow day” growing up?

    Great blog :)
    I too am guilty! I try and eat slowly and savour my meals – but usually I end up eating while catching up on other things.

    I bought I funny book yesterday that I thought that you would appreciate…”How to be a better Foodie.”

    I try really hard to sit at the table and focus on the food that I’m eating BUT sometimes I can’t help myself and I multi-task for sure!

    I usually take a break to read a fun book while I eat my meals. I live alone, and the lack of dinner conversation can be a bit boring! Plus, it’s one of the few times I can justify reading a fun book instead of working on school stuff (the other justifiable time is while working out!).
