    Astrology.com Daily FoodScopes - Tuesday August 12, 2008

    Aries (March 21 - April 19)
    Is your unrelenting desire to win resulting in a lot of your footprints on your friends backs? Tuesday isn't the best night for a happy hour, but if you don't take your friends out for a little nosh and drink tonight, you may just wind up with a really great promotion soon ... and no one to share it with!

    Taurus (April 20 - May 20)
    Don't worry about moving slower than the pack, today. Your steady progress will get you to your goal soon enough. The same goes for making dinner. Lower the heat on your oven, and take twice as long to cook the chicken. The meat will be juicier than you could possibly imagine.

    You'll feel tougher than nails in negotiations today. Soften your mood after work with a little traditional gelato. Sweet hazelnut cream will lighten your mood and help you beat the summer heat.

    Cancer (June 22 - July 22)
    Shades of grey have no place in your life today. Why go for the turkey burger if you really want the kobe beef? Why get the dressing on the side if you know you don't really need it at all. Make the hard choice as quickly as possible.

    Leo (July 23 - August 22)
    If you find yourself jonesing for a little freedom today, give in -- just a little. Honey makes a great high-energy snack when spread on a slice of whole wheat toast. And a handful of pistachios is a tasty and healthy snack.

    Virgo (August 23 - September 22)
    Your hard work will pay off, and you can switch the focus of the day to romance. Enjoy a plate of oysters with a crush, or an espresso and chocolate mousse with your long-term flame. Delight in each other's company, and the sweet flavors you share.

    Libra (September 23 - October 22)
    Lately there has been an unbalance between your work and home life. That unbalance will be corrected today, with or without your help. Retreat to the comfort foods that remind you of a simpler time. Who can be stressed out while munching on a grilled cheese sandwich or slurping up tomato soup?

    Scorpio (October 23 - November 21)
    You'll wake up the very image of Bill Gates: ready to crush the competition and seize your destiny. Being a mogul is great, but the tinkle of the ice cream man's chimes will crumble that facade. Go grown up with an Italian flavored ice instead of a push-pop.

    Sagittarius (November 22 - December 21)
    Even if you're trying to stick to a budget, don't pinch out the simple pleasures of the day. If you brown-bag it, pack a delicious sandwich of basil, mozzarella di bufala and heirloom tomato on herbed focaccia. Why default to bologna if you can eat like that?

    Capricorn (December 22 - January 19)
    Today will seem slower than ... well ... molasses! That doesn't mean you can't enjoy the sweet, dark sugar. Mix it in with some beans, replace your white sugar in cookies with its oozy goodness or pep up your coffee or tea with a spoonful.

    Aquarius (January 20 - February 18)
    After last night's revelry, you may be suffering from a bad case of the Tuesdays. Unless you keep your head down, the day will turn out to be a waste. This means keeping to your desk, even if it means scarfing the snack machine's sad offering of ramen noodles and corn chips.

    Pisces (February 19 - March 20)
    As the week crests today, friends and coworkers begin to lend a hand on any outstanding projects. Repay the favor by doing something you rarely consider: picking up the check. That's right, take them out and snatch the bill before they can get it. Go on, it won't hurt at all!

      My after-school snack was a sacred ritual. I sat on the carpet in my parents' bedroom at a low table, the television turned to "I Dream of Jeannie," and ate a peanut butter and honey sandwich cut into neat squares. I wasn't fussy about crusts. I just loved the sticky pairing of creamy peanut butter with syrupy golden sweetness drizzled from a honey bear in diagonals across the soft white bread.
