I had a sugar craving the other day that I just couldn't shake. None of the "textbook" remedies seemed to work. I waited, kept busy, read a good book, relaxed, drank water, and had a small piece of fruit.

Despite all these great alternatives, I still wanted the real deal. Visions of sweet bread danced in my head - sweet, chewy, light, soft sweet bread - no matter I tried to do!

So, finally I gave in to the urge, got out the baking supplies, and baked up some sweet bread. I had a piece and was finally satisfied. My sweet tooth was quiet.

I really wish I didn't have to go through all of that. It would have been so much easier if I just forgot about my craving when I kept myself busy or felt satisfied with a piece of fruit. Where this intense sugar craving came from, I'm not sure. I wasn't stressed or bored or even hungry.

I probably just needed a sugar fix.
