101 Cookbooks - Recipe Journal. A 12-Step Program to Eating Healthier Than Ever Before | Zen Habits. “If I’d known I was going to live so long, I’d have taken better care of myself.” - Leon Eldred As I mentioned recently, I was a junk-food addict in my not-too-distant past, and ballooning alarmingly around the waistline. I was addicted to burgers and sodas and fries and pizzas and sweets and all the fast food you can think of and most especially chocolate. Today, while I can’t say I only eat wheat germ and fresh veggies picked right from my home garden, I generally eat healthier than I have ever done in my life.
How did I get from Point A (junk food junkie) to Point B (much healthier diet)? Actually, that’s the secret to any meaningful improvement, in my experience, but we’ll just talk about eating healthy for now.

The utilitarian meals, the ones that often begin with phrases such as “What’s for dinner?” And “I’m starving, let’s see what we have in the kitchen,” are where disorganization can work against you. To help with meal planning organization, I created a Meal Plan worksheet (links to the worksheet at the end of this article). My next task is to put an “X” on the worksheet through any of the meals that I know will be eaten out of the house for friends’ birthdays or whatever is lined up on our calendar. When matching recipes with meals, I’ll review the recipe and write down any ingredients on the grocery list section of the worksheet.

If I determine this to be a problem, I'll replace the abstracts with summaries written by myself. However, people reprinting this file may wish to leave out that section of the FAQ if this issue is of concern to them.

Absinthe is an alcoholic drink made with an extract from wormwood (Artemisia absinthium). This issue is not entirely resolved. However, the direct evidence to support this idea is scant.
