refined sugar and def poetry jam...

what could the two possibly have in common you ask? well, they both make me happy...very happy.
i gave up refined sugar for about 6 weeks- hard core i tell you, jorge laughed at me when i said i was going to do it. but the thing i realized is, i just love ice cream too much. so now i'm eating almost no refined sugar except ice cream, mint chocolate chip to be exact, and the occasional milk chocolate indulgence. i find this is a better balance for both my soul and mood.

and i really like eating healthy otherwise...my love affair with fresh fruits and vegetables has only intensified during this pregnancy. hopefully this will be passed on to my baby girl too...

and then there's def poetry jam. it has to be like the best kind of church ever. every week i can barely wait for the next one. i find myself crying and laughing while being convicted and inspired. and then i rewatch them over and over during the week. these are the things that get a girl through i tell you...ice cream and poetry....
