Give me a minute

What snack would you eat right now?

At this moment in time, I’m not in snack-needed-mode, but thank you, WP.

Coming up to 6.30am on a dark cold January morning, two large coffees in, is enough for now.

Patch can’t quite decide if to get up or not, but I think it’s only heading one way and before I know it he will be giving me three minutes to sort myself before he wants out.

Snacks can wait. Maybe later, if I need something salty to fill a gap I will reach for some olives, something sweet, it will be dates.

Snacking can go two ways. It’s relatively nutrious and fills a gap. Regulating sugar levels  and providing energy during the lows, or else with a life of its own and becoming addictive, stuffing your body with rubbish.

I simply don’t buy cakes, biscuits, crisps or beige food that will speak to me through the kitchen cupboard door. They will have the upper hand, and I find I’m not happy until I have seen them off. Best I don’t put them in temptations way to start with.
