Winter Prep by the Pound

Nature is truly an amazing thing. It brings us these gorgeous fall days, when brilliant blue skies highlight the golden, crimson and purple leaves. It allows our bodies to make and nurture babies.

And, somehow, it flips a genetic switch -- passed down through millenia -- that it's time for us to bulk up for the colder weather, as the harvest soon will be gone.

Bummer that the harvest, or grocery store as I refer to it, is just two blocks away even in the dead of winter, so all these unwanted pounds to stave off starvation are useless. Unless, it's nature's way of allowing me to single-handedly spur the economy through the purchase of larger-sized jeans. Hmmm.....
