At this time of year some of us are confronted with a myriad of challenges.

Your spring/summer lighter seasonal clothing comes out, but…oh my….will it fit? One could blame it on the freshman 15, but not having been to college in 40 years that stretches beyond credibility. And besides, why would you want to wear last years fashion, it is after all so last year.

And the shoes. What shoes does one wear now? Too soon for flip flops or those fab strappy sandals. The boots that you have trudged around in all winter clearly feel all wrong. If it is a rainy season one can make do with those ridiculous rubber galoshes, it levels the playing field, no one looks good in those.

So, I am going to take the advice of my friend here.

It absolutely solves a myriad of concerns. Remember Tom Hanks in whatever that movie was called, where he morphs into a Robinson Crusoe like character?

He went down at least 4 sizes, if I recall.

Avoids all of the current fashion conundrums. And eating grains and nuts is so very much the right thing to do. Except for those who really don’t look good in green, it’s a great plan.
