Eat Your Vegetables!

Thursday, October 22nd, 2009

We all know it’s important to eat healthy but do we drive home the importance with our kids? Click the link to read about how poor nutrition is going to affect the next generation.

“Believe it or not, medical experts are now warning that for the first time in the history of this nation, we’re headed for the next generation being on track to have a shorter lifespan than us,” she said.

CT Bites Into Some Yumnuts!

Tuesday, October 20th, 2009

When you walk into a company that makes a product called “Yumnuts”, it’s tempting to joke about the name. But on a recent visit to Yumnuts Naturals’ office in Norwalk, it was apparent that these guys are serious about their nuts. See, I had to do it, but all kidding aside, the makers of Yumnuts want to know if you’ve said “yum” today? If not, they have just the cashew for you.

Change Your Habits, Change Your Health

Tuesday, October 13th, 2009

Every product has ingredients. It may be a food item, cleaning product or body lotion. Have you ever read an ingredients label and been familiar with all the ingredients listed? Ever wonder how each of those ingredients interacts with your body? One Mom did and she  changed her habits to save her family’s health.

What Is Your Comfort Food?

Thursday, October 8th, 2009

This makes me feel better about comfort food. Often during stress my comfort food is double stuffed oreos but I NEVER  stock my cabinets with those types of items so in reality my options for comfort foods are always healthy and this makes me feel good about my decisions. What is your comfort food?

Aline’s Yummie Opinion

Wednesday, October 7th, 2009

I’m in love with Yumnuts. They recently popped up at my local grocery store in Georgetown, CT - Caraluzzi’s. I have a few bags in my cupboard as we speak. I like snacking on them, putting them on salads, and also they make a nice …hors d’oevre - something to put out in a bowl when we have a few friends over. -Aline
