Have another marzipan.
It’s true! My aunt Cecilia in NY suffered from anorexia & looked like a skeleton when she was advised by her therapist to listen to the flute harp concerto by Mozart. This took her into classical music addiction and now she’s some 300 kilo & is no longer allowed into the Met – until they have new seats. Now her therapist is advising listening to Boulez to get into fat balance & I think that’s right because I am in perfect shape myself through my CD collection!
