Still Eating Like August

Back home after the holiday, a smaller bowl of ice cream sits on the kitchen counter. The serving has changed, but attention keeps returning to the container in the freezer.

The portion has returned to routine; the wanting has not. Ice cream now carries taste, enoughness, long meals, old friends, and evenings that continued after the pizza boxes were empty.

"Still Eating Like August" examines the gap between changing a behavior and changing an appetite. It asks why a desire formed through planning can seem more trustworthy than one shaped by pleasure, company, and a particular time.
