Imagine indulging in a Star Crunch or a generous slice of lemon cake. These are not snacks for those on a health kick, but they are a luxurious treat for the taste buds. Lately, my sweet tooth has been calling the shots, and I’ve been more than happy to indulge it. While I usually steer clear of such sweet treats, I figure, it’s just one week out of the month, right? I doubt my body will mind.

Now, let’s talk about the lemon cake. I’ve discovered that a dollop of lemon-flavored frosting and a cup of nonfat milk make the perfect accompaniment. I can already hear the milk purists scoffing at the mention of nonfat milk, but trust me, I’ve had my fair share of lectures from my mother and grandmother on this topic. For me, nonfat milk and lemon cake are a match made in snack heaven. If you prefer cheese, crackers, and milk, go for it. And if you’re a fan of veggie chips and Red Bull, may the caffeine be with you!

Amidst the hustle of work, I’ve discovered that a touch of sweetness can work wonders in keeping my spirits high. It’s like a little comfort in a busy day.
