In her semi-rural corner of the UK, it is still common for the village to "roll up their sidewalks" after 8 PM & while you **MIGHT** eat a late dinner at the pub, there is not this habit of rushing through a fast-food drive-in...Valhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/03152215204773184788noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7221767529759848946.post-24416966559190939742015-04-12T12:14:27.464-05:002015-04-12T12:14:27.464-05:00physically-busy people don't think about snack...physically-busy people don't think about snacking as much, too, i think. when i was working full-time and participating in community-theatre in the evenings, i usually lost five pounds with every show i worked on, sewing costumes or hanging/programming lights.tesshttps://www.blogger.com/profile/04254045589639201707noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7221767529759848946.post-56692496207406082512015-04-12T10:50:45.746-05:002015-04-12T10:50:45.746-05:00and snacks? you wanted to snack, you grabbed an a...and snacks? you wanted to snack, you grabbed an apple. but mostly, you just waited for the next meal, because we weren't eating so much sugar, we weren't hungry as much.Gwenhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/18386517479350871434noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7221767529759848946.post-58661148223869884992015-04-12T07:01:32.806-05:002015-04-12T07:01:32.806-05:00:-) when the modern world gets me down, i regular...:-) when the modern world gets me down, i regularly escape into the past via literature, most often fiction from anywhere between the Middle Ages and the Post WWII era. As i've mentioned before, when you want to know about the past the best way is to read what was written THEN, not written now ABOUT then....<br /><br />Incidental comments about daily life reveals that bread and butter were a very common meal in America and various European countries throughout the nineteenth century; from Sherlock Holmes to Archie Goodwin, the quick meal-on-the-go was always a sandwich. The exact high-carb meal might have changed from crackers-and-milk to pasta, but they were STILL often high-carb back then. :-) tesshttps://www.blogger.com/profile/04254045589639201707noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7221767529759848946.post-17278240639867685682015-04-11T19:52:28.396-05:002015-04-11T19:52:28.396-05:00How can I comment...so much of this is true.
