Starbucks 'Trenta': How The New Size Compares To Your Stomach
Famous Death Row Last Meals
Forget AA, and all of the other addiction services out there. Forget chastity belts. There's a million different techniques for battling the different manifestations of addiction and inclination, but I've seen none that work for foodie excitement.Do you have it? I'm talking about getting overwhelmed and buy-crazy over tasty food. It's best to keep me out of a gourmet store, and I go totally nuts when faced with a swarm of cheap, nice-looking produce.
To the right, you can see the latest addition to my apartment -- a basil bouquet. Originally, it was supposed to be just enough to make some salads and some tasty pesto. Soon though, it became so much more. I ended up buying more than I needed, and then I got one more huge clump with my weekly organic delivery. Like always, I'm struggling to use it all up before it goes painfully limp.
That being said, it would be hard for me to refuse more if I walked by a nice bunch at a good price... How do you curb your excited, foodie whims?

I still have to watch myself when I shop there. The produce section is almost a work of art. We also have wonderful summer farmers markets here and it's easy to spend $40-$50 per trip even though there are only two of us at home. When I need something that can only be found at WF - I sometimes send my husband on the errand - he's much better at going in, getting what we need and getting back out.
