From my friend, Stacey LoSacco...
What Happens to Your Body Within an Hour of Drinking a Coke?
Do you want to be healthy? Drinking soda is bad for your health in so many ways; science can't even state all the consequences. Here's what happens in your body when you assault it with a Coke:
Within the first 10 minutes, 10 teaspoons of sugar hit your system. This is 100 percent of your recommended daily intake, and the only reason you don't vomit as a result of the overwhelming sweetness is because phosphoric acid cuts the flavor.
Within 20 minutes, your blood sugar spikes, and your liver responds to the resulting insulin burst by turning massive amounts of sugar into fat.
Within 40 minutes, caffeine absorption is complete; your pupils dilate, your blood pressure rises, and your livers dumps more sugar into your bloodstream.
Around 45 minutes, your body increases dopamine production, which stimulates the pleasure centers of your brain - a physically identical response to that of heroin, by the way.
After 60 minutes, you'll start to have a sugar crash.

I have figured out the (not-really-all-that-complicated) process of switching over the domain name to my new site..and I am officially out of "trial mode"! Got a little bit of sadness, leaving behind that gorgeous space I was in, but I am really excited to offer more cool stuff here, as well as just keeping it up-to-date. And, I hope to make it just as lovely, if not more so, in the near future. Enjoy!
Hello!

... and welcome to my new Squarespace site. In keeping up with the evolution of websites, I'm in the process of moving in to a new space... which I hope will be cleaner and easier to navigate. I'd welcome any thoughts and opinions you may have about the new look and ability to find what you are looking for.
