I've been making more of a commitment to eating all meals and snacks at the table. That way it brings more awareness to what I'm eating and brings purpose to it. I found that when I was on the go and eating in the car that was when I was eating the less quality foods that I normally wouldn't. It's all about mindfulness.

Taking a magnesium supplement such as Natural Calm does wonders for the caffeine withdrawals.

I'd also stay away from decaf coffee as the process used to take the caffeine out relies on a lot of chemicals.

I've been wanting to soak the butternut squash in some granny smith apple juice and then bake it. Bet it would be mad good that way.

I'd rather make most of mine. Most of the store bought stuff is packed with nasty preservatives. Though there are a few brands that I actually trust and buy from.
