  1. Haha…in my experience, ALL horses love to eat. I once heard it said, you think a horse loves you, but all they really want is to be fed, and eat, eat, eat. I think I must be a hinny trapped in a woman’s body. I LOVE to eat (which is becoming quite a battle now that I am starting into my 3o’s and also a mommy.) Your blog is making me hungry… Have anything special for us calorie conscious people who don’t like fake sugar much? One good trick I learned is substituting applesauce for cooking oil in my box cakes (obviously lowers the fat content, but also makes for a denser, moister cake, which I love.)

    • I do lots of baking with honey–best to buy the plainest, most “vanilla” kind of honey you can for baking (clover, alfalfa, etc. is too tangy). I stopped eating refined white sugar about 10 years ago and in about 6 months, with no other changes, lost 20+ pounds plus my energy levels went way up. Baking with honey can be a challenge, but it’s so worth it!

      • It seems like it takes a lot more honey to make something sweet (just in my limited experience using honey), and you end up with MORE calories, but they must be processed differently or something. That’s awesome!

      • I use way LESS honey!! I think it’s much sweeter than sugar. But I have gotten very used to it and no longer like super sweet stuff.
