Indulging is important


There’s always that one special thing that calls your subconscious incessantly. Be it the neighborhood bakery you visit every few months, a meal only perfected by your parents when you visit home, the pasta list on the menu at every restaurant you dine, or creamy coffee beverages you smell every morning on your way to work. Whatever it is that makes you feel cozy with a ping of regret to indulge...let it be. Let yourself indulge more often on the things you absolutely can’t get enough of.

I used to eat penne al la vodka constantly as a little tot. For every holiday, meal out, or vacation with family it was the one thing I wanted to have. Pasta has forever been my favorite. In every form possibly made. Consider having that one thing you yearn for so often... more often, and Exclude the guilt trips. Really.
