I am currently thirty-six years old. And I thought I was clumsy for decades. But, I'm not. I hit my "clumsy period" (that time in the early teens when the limbs are longer than one remembers and the center of balance is off, so things get dropped and tripped over and so on) during one of the most stressfull times in my life, and that just cemented the "I'm clumsy and always will be" lie in my head. I'm angry at myself for believing this so completely. And I'm still working on rooting out all the bits from my psyche.

*sigh* Being human is haaaaaaaaard!

So, another of my current crop of cravings is peanut butter & honey. No, just mixed together in a bowl.

I admit, peanut butter & honey fascinates me. I mean, honey? Sticky. Peanut butter? Sticky. Mix them together and they become remarkably less sticky. I know *why* it happens (the fat in the peanut butter) but it's still almost-magic. And it's also very good on apple slices.

Too cool. Cory Doctorow's Secret Decoder Wedding Ring.

I think I'm scared of this Full Body Massage Chair.

Great shirt. I'm the Grammar Snob About Whom Your Mother Warned You.

That massage chair looks like it should be used for some sort of science-fictiony hypnotic interrogation system.

Something my mother would make as candy, in place of fudge:


Peanut butter honey bits

Mix equal parts of peanut butter, honey, and dried milk. Roll into balls.

You can also add wheat germ, coconut, sesame seeds...

Omnomnomnom. :)

Good for you for rooting out the clumsy talk in your psyche. It does not need to be there!

I love peanut butter and honey too, and have since I was a little kid. Yum!

Love you Gessi!

I'm 50 years old. I was well into my 40s before I finally got past the "I'm not pretty" mental block I acquired at about the same age.

I love me a bowl of peanut butter and honey too.

I would sit in the full body massage chair...oh yes I would.

As for cravings...I think that is a good one! Man, the cravings I had when pg...with all 3 I craved creamed corn and scrambled eggs. Together. Before I'd get a pos. I would HAVE to have that. I used to crave cottage cheese with relish mixed in when I was younger...not sure what that was all about...

you should be VERY afraid of that chair!! My chiro has it and it feels like tiny people are beating the crap out of you!! It squeezes your feet and calves and is very jiggly in the breast region!! I think he just puts me in it to see my boobs hop around!!! lol it's crazy!
