Daylight Savings Time - Will YOU Be Losing Sleep?

Daylight Savings Time begins 2:00 a.m., Sunday March 9, 2014

You will if you already sleep less than 7-8 hours a day.  You will if you are already sleep deprived and you will if you decide to “party” and consume a little too much of the grain.  Hmmm, you can do that last one on a non “turn your clock forward’ evening, too.  I do not anticipate getting to bed an hour earlier than normal to be a problem in this household, Elliot keeps us on the go from sunrise to sunset.  However, if K and I do find ourselves fairly awake around 10:00 p.m., our drink of choice will be a cup of warm milk laced with a little spice.

Good Old Fashioned Warm Milk

16 oz milk (low fat, whole milk, skim – the choice is yours)
