stop eating foods with high fructose corn syrup
Untitled 2 years ago

I can’t even eat foods or drinks with high fructose corn syrup anymore – they’re so sweet and cloying, it’s instantly noticeable. I’ve cut unnecessary calories and processed sugars, and I’m a lot happier (and healthier) for it!



release bookcrossing books each month (read all 3 entries…)
Untitled 2 years ago

If people actually picked up my books and recorded it, this would have been so much more worthwhile. As it is, I’ve released several, and never heard back again. I’m going to do something else with my books in the future, where I know it will actually make a difference.
