0:16This week we'll talk about why you should treat yourself like a grandchild and a helpful tip if, like me, you're trying to do certain things every day.

0:27I'm Gretchen Rubin, a writer who studies happiness, good habits, and human nature.

0:32I'm in my little home office here in New York City.

0:34And joining me today from Los Angeles is my sister Elizabeth Kraft.

0:38And Elizabeth, I love to treat you like my grandchild.

0:42That's me, Elizabeth Kraft, a TV writer and producer living in LA.

0:45And Gretch, I think that means giving me a lot of Pop-Tarts and Sunkiss because that's what our grandparents did for me.

0:51They sure did.

0:53Oh my gosh.

0:54And it's still such happy memories.

0:57Oh my God.

0:58Remember the time when you and I bought Pop-Tarts ourselves, like three years ago?
