Merry Go Round #2

May 9, 2009 by Mary

This post may contain affiliate links. Please read my disclosure for details.

Weekly link love:

Ezra Klein of The American Prospect has a fascinating post on the behavioral economics of free bread. In short, people consume a lot more of something when they believe it is free. (HT Mark’s Daily Apple)

Hope you are not in the mood to eat, because this is quite disgusting.  Chicken in a can anyone?  Really.  A whole chicken in a can.

Lyn at Escape From Obesity has a good post up about checking out of life with food and the deep issues behind the fat.  Great insights because life is about living and dealing, not avoiding (the biggest lesson I have learned evah!).

My bestest and I have talked about calcium, bones, and osteoporosis three times this weekend.  FitSugar offers up solutions in the form of 7 foods for strong bones.  Now to cram this strong bones knowledge down her milk hating throat. Kidding, kidding.

No one is too old for Yoga.  Case in point?  This 83 year old is AMAZING. But if you aren’t quite as flexible as she is, you can always find another way to explore yoga.  Perhaps viaciously?

    Wasn’t it? Ugh. I can’t think of someone actually eating it.
