Fortunately bringing food into the computer labs is frowned upon here so I’m with you on that one. Now if only I could start making bread from scratch…

So happy to see the mindful eating!!! That’s such a wonderful resolution. Did you know that 30-40% of the digestive response happens in the brain, so if you are eating mindlessly, never giving your brain the chance to recognize that food is going in the mouth, that means you’re only metabolizing your food at 60-70% efficiency. So, all those good organic veggies might just be going to waste if you’re not sitting down at a table, looking at them, salivating, and then chowing down.
