Eureka!

So the reason I don't ever seem to lose the 10 (or 20) pounds I have sticking around? I'm pretty sure I am obsessed with food. Living with a naturally very skinny guy hasn't improved this obsession. For example the last several books I've read, (Omnivore's Dilemma: Eat, Pray, Love; Alone in the Kitchen with an Eggplant, and the upcoming Animal, Vegetable, Mineral) all have food has a central theme. After dinner tonight I started making soup, partly because we had chicken I thought would be good as noodle soup and partly because I just like making soup when it is raining. It's probably not normal to finish eating a meal and then begin to make the next meal.
