Why do I want chocolate?
I can go an entire year and not once do I crave chocolate or candy. I've never been a candy girl. Even during some of my biggest eatathon days. My taste buds have always preferred salty, spicey, savory foods. Never cakes or cookies or candies....well, except for twizzler licorice--yeah I could kill a 5 pound bag of that in no time flat! But, chocolate---sure I will eat it but I don't crave it or dream about it or fantasize about it. I admit--I have had orgasmic moments over huge bowls of pasta, big fat meatballs, piles of nachoes, platters of sharp cheeses and home made hot sausage with peppers and onions . But...sweets....not so much. I don't even like sweet wine or super sweet girly libations. I'm strictly a girl who likes to taste her booze and savor her spices.
So, why is it that come the last week of October, I find myself wanting Reese's peanutbutter cups and Almond Joys??? Does it have anything to do with years of trick-or-treating? Does my body just know it's time to get candy???

I don't know but if you figure it out could you please share with the rest of us? I am experiencing the same thing now. Maybe it's because I don't have any fill right now. I hope so. Have a good day in Judiland............

Hi, just checkin'in. Miss you.
Just been too darn busy to even check my fav blogs lately.
I was blindsided by a mini Almond Joy (or 3) last night. I know, I am like you, the sweets are usually resistable for me. Who knows.
Judi, are you the one who loves Starbucks Chai Lattes? If so, thanks alot! They are awesome...and have a million calories and sugar grams! I just had my first this morning, then looked at the nutrition info (after I sucked it down). Can't they make these with fewer calories and sugar?
It must be the holiday Judi. I also crave chocolate and I don't like sweets since my last adjustment. Try a piece or two of DARK chocolate with a nice merlot. It may do the trick with less calories and a buzz!!
