What is grief, if not love persevering?

Grief is just love with no place to go.

Great review! I myself think that depending on miracle pills, slimming tea, and The like are not that effective for long term maintenance. One should get to know his/her own body first. A diet that works for a certain person doesn't mean that it will work for another. This, let's just say-article only delves on a tiny part of the entire picture which is mainly eating a healthy diet. Although this would help when it comes to choosing your spices when making your meal.

Thanks, I quite agree. Everyone is looking for a quick fix without actually having to put forth any effort or, God forbid, exercise a little self-restraint when it comes to what they eat. I'm sure that herbs and spices can contribute to overall wellness, but as you said, that's only part of the picture.

Even though the book is short, it seems very interesting, and I'd definitely pick it up if I had a decent spice rack. (So far, I've got plastic bags in a cupboard.)

With an avatar like that, I would think your spices would occupy a very prestigious and prominent place in your house. :)

Well, both of your guesses are better than my guess, which was "duh?".

Well, after all, I am the one who read nineteen pages about spices.

No worries, now we have a new mantra: "Apparently garlic is bulbous! Apparently garlic is bulbous!"
