Both little practices go a long way in keeping us "aware" of what we are putting in our mouths. And now I am off to get my Anne Barone books off the shelf (I just pulled "Elegance" by Kathleen Tessaro last night--so charming.)Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4130537499074859934.post-10119280684897020532010-11-26T03:31:10.768+13:002010-11-26T03:31:10.768+13:00Dear Fiona,

I was just writing about the horrors of holiday processed foods (really, merely mentioning it, setting up for later discussions of butter). It certainly makes me gain weight. After visiting my family, I couldn't believe the extra pounds I came home with last Christmas, and they were the most difficult to take off.<br /><br />I love these tips for eating and drinking, especially the one about lipstick, and I must find the book somewhere. Good luck with partying according to your plan!<br /><br />xoAnonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4130537499074859934.post-86464590371942618662010-11-26T00:17:14.356+13:002010-11-26T00:17:14.356+13:00I love her books, but you are right, the first thr...I love her books, but you are right, the first three are the best. This is a timely post and one that I'm so glad you decided to share today. I'm going to be very mindful today during Thanksgiving and plan it out how much I eat and drink.Stephaniehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/09289348366926684135noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4130537499074859934.post-48370737794927860162010-11-25T22:19:00.018+13:002010-11-25T22:19:00.018+13:00For myself it's about making sure I focus on t...For myself it's about making sure I focus on the conversation and my food, but eat mindfully. It's easy in the middle of listening to someone to eat without thinking. I try and set my fork down, listen to them, respond, take a bite. I guess I'm lucky I don't mind much if my food isn't hot, so taking my time and eating room temp. food doesn't bug me. <br /><br />Oh, and if you wanted to link to your guest post that would be lovely! I really loved what you had to say. Making your restaurant foods at home can actually be very thrilling because you can tweak them if you like it a little spicier or want to add a vegetable.
