cold turkey.

CAPES [something empowering] The best way to kick a bad habit is to quit cold turkey. Don't look back. Don't ease yourself out of it. Just stop it already. My friend and I recently gave up something...to remain nameless, of course...but we quit cold turkey and aren't looking back. Go us!

COFFEE [latest trend or addiction] Update on jeggings: I still want them.

THE COLOR ORANGE [something noteworthy] As an amendment to the "CAPES" section, I think it is worth mentioning that its wisdom should be applied only to harmful things, such as smoking, drugs, keeping bad company, picking your nose, destructive behavior, gossipping, unhealthy relationships, etc. [you get the point]. However, it should not be applied to things where moderation is the key - like eating cookies. You should never quit that. Just remember: everything in moderation [including moderation].
