Are You Ready For The Holiday Food?
One Month and Counting…
It happened. In fact, it happens every year on this weekend. I turn one year older and the next day, the Christmas decorations appear, and the holiday season begins.

A Thanksgiving Tribute
What should I eat?
As I sit here and write this blog, I am reflecting on all that I have to be thankful for. Today is Canada’s Thanksgiving. A day we spend with family and friends and give thanks for all that we have, all the opportunity, all our possessions, and all our blessings. Along with all, we have let’s give thanks for our food. Most days we take food for granted. It just seems to show up in the grocery store for us to purchase. Have you ever given thought to how incredible it is that we can walk into a grocery store at any time of the year, almost any time of the day and find fresh produce? Baked bread? A cornucopia of deliciousness?

Day Eleven - Holiday Health Challenge
The Holidays are filled with deliciousness. There are gingerbread cookies, shortbread cookies, pecan pies, pumpkin pies, eggnog, hot buttered rum and many more unbelievably amazing confections. Sometimes I run into people who are literally eating themselves through the holidays. Did you know that most people who pack on a few pounds every holiday rarely take those pounds off in January?
