I do not keep a scale in my house. My parents have one of those scales like they use at the doctors office, and it is very accurate.
I use their scale on occasion, usually once a week if I am there - but other than that, I just can’t obsess about the up’s and down’s […]
I am in a full on major exercise kick these days. I do a bit of stretching, light weights, and stomach crunches, but my main focus is walking. Oh - I like the walking. I am up to just over 5 miles a day, which I break up into two separate walking expeditions.

There was a time when we could eat anything we wanted and not gain an ounce. And then it got a little harder, but bringing up kids burned calories pretty quickly. Well, now we don’t have little kids to run after anylonger and our metabolism is slowing down. One of the best ways to keep […]
“Pomegranates are being hailed in the news as a super-food with numerous health benefits. Scientists in Israel have shown that drinking a daily glass of the fruit’s juice can reduce the risk of cardiovascular disease. Research also suggests that pomegranate juice may contain almost three times the total antioxidant ability compared with the same quantity […]
Every time a watermelon comes into our house, I tell everyone (to their horror) not to throw away the rind, that I’m going to make pickles out of them. They think I’m certifiable, but hey… I just found a recipe, so I just might give them a try.
I’m kidding, but on the other hand, […]
