What's in a name?

You've probably heard of the Fortune Cookie game – add 'in bed' to the end of any fortune from a cookie to make it more exciting. Well, I'm hoping that my love of books and beautiful writing will help me cope with chronic migraines.

'We don't need sugar to live.' – Mehmet Oz

Usually I have cereal and yogurt for breakfast. Twice in the last two weeks I've had an especially sugary breakfast, then got a migraine by mid-morning. I mentioned this to a dietician friend and she confirmed that sugar is often a trigger, especially for people who are on the cusp of a migraine, as I perpetually am. It's not good to get a migraine, but it is good to learn more triggers. Unfortunately I will have to rein in my sweet tooth.
