Fix of almonds


In finding a healthy lifestyle, I decided to look for ways to avoid bingeing on junk food and the solution came from my curiosity with nuts. Peanuts, cashew nuts, almonds, pistachio etc. I googled about the health benefits of eating nuts and I resolved that amongst all the different types I would go with almonds.
So I went looking for a supermarket I can find natural raw California almonds – the preferred brand was “Members Mark” and luckily for me I found a shelf full of them. Quickly I grabbed a bag which weighed about 3Kg . what it cost? I wasn’t bothered about how expensive it was all I could think of was how it would taste in my mouth!

Three months down the line I cannot get my taste buds off almonds, I have practically become an almond junkie! Looking at the jar in my room where I usually store them it has been empty for weeks and my supplier the supermarket is out of stock!!!

An order that was   placed over 4 weeks ago for three bags of almonds and still no almonds has left me with a withdrawal syndrome.  Thanks to my cousin who thought it nice to find me some just yesterday it was a very small bowl that tasted exactly like the almond brand I like and looking through the pack it read as its tag line….healthy obsession. LOL!
