Don’t Forget to Hydrate!
Hydrate, Hydrate, Hydrate!!! Fasting can leave you all exhausted and ready to give up on life activities. These limitations can manifest in the form of fatigue, headaches, dry mouth, nausea, and thirst. However, the goal of fasting is not to keep you from your daily activities rather it is to just keep you from your flesh-inspired activities.

Zucchini and Eggplant Pasta
One of my 2023 goals is to save as much money as I can by cutting expenditures on literally everything. This sounds like a dream right? Well, not so much for me because I love food and trying out new restaurants or new menus the same way I love making/experimenting with the food my kitchen. The only problem with my unrestrained love for food is exactly that it is unrestrained. Most of my expenses are somewhat food-related.
