"Besides," she continued, her smile faltering a bit as she squeezed my hands, "you'd be surprised at how many people dislike spending time with someone who constantly gets things right. It's not always an easy way to be."

RaimeyGallant I know that feeling. ;) 5y

"You don't think this dress makes me look too much like a little girl, do you?"
Lill have me a curious look. "Does it make you feel like a little girl?" she asked quietly.
"Only when I'm around Bobbie. She's sixteen," I said by way of explaining. Lill's face broke into a broad smile as she too looked Bobbie's way.
"You know, that Bobbie makes me feel a bit like a little girl too," Lill said with a laugh.

It‘s been almost a year since I completed #Whole30, and I still make this breakfast at least 3 times a week! Sweet potatoes were definitely my most cooked food of 2017!

On the plate: Scrambled eggs, sweet potato hash browns, clementine.

Book: Skimming one of the Battle of the Books selections M is reading over break.

Cinfhen I agree sweet potatoes rule , followed by almond milk😊 6y
youneverarrived Looks lovely 😋 6y
alisiakae @Cinfhen Yes to almond milk, too! I drink a ton of almond milk, and keep meaning to try the Califia almond milk Horchata. 6y

Cinfhen I had the Califai Farms Almond milk & cold brewed coffees over the summer! Soooo good 😊I did Whole30 last February and I stuck to it for about 90 days but then I got bad...I still do mostly no diary, no pasta & I watch my gluten. It's the sugar & milk chocolate that are my triggers 6y
Notafraidofwords Do you see a difference in your health? 6y
alisiakae @Cinfhen same here. I would like to be gluten-free long-term indefinitely, because I also did an allergy elimination diet and feel much better when I am GF. But this time of year is tough! I also avoid most dairy except yogurt and some cheese, and fried food (except latkes...but boy did I regret it the next day!) 6y
alisiakae @Notafraidofwords Definitely! The biggest take aways for me was cutting out sugar and gluten. Although I kind of fell off the wagon this month, I kept to a very low sugar consumption all year. I can feel the difference now that some has snuck back in this month. 6y
Notafraidofwords @4thhouseontheleft like in terms of weight loss? 6y
alisiakae @Notafraidofwords more in terms of general health. Less fatigue and insomnia, healthier skin, and my digestive problems went away. But I also lost 20 lbs this year with the changed diet! (and I ate fairly healthy to begin with, with the exception of a sweet tooth). 😊 6y
