Other Things O
OK – brace yourself because this is gross. But, I can’t resist. . .
A few years ago a good dietitian friend of mine told me that research shows that during their lifetime, most kids eats eat more boogers that broccoli. So, what does that mean? If you picked your nose and “consumed it” when you [...]
Dear Ann: How is it that my son says he can’t pick up his socks because he is too tired, yet five minutes later he is lugging massive amounts of water from the bathroom to the family room to prepare for a “surprise” experiment (that is yet to be disclosed)???
Tonight, I “Googled” something I never thought I’d be searching for in a million years on the net–“low cal fruits and vegetables.” Yes, it’s just not enough to be eating fruits and veggies. If you eat too many calories, you gain weight. Geez.
As mentioned yesterday, I have been eating super healthy—yet not noticing anything positive [...]
Week one of the New Year’s Nine is complete and I’ve certainly learned a lot so far. On the positive side, not a day has gone by where I have not made my goal of eating nine servings of fruits and veggies. Add in the flax seed consumption and cutting out the soda—and wow, I’m [...]
At the risk of sounding cheesy (Uhmmm, yeah. I’m not eating much of that lately), every time I eat my BIG Salad full of beets I think of Michael Jackson. I am pretty sure he was chawing down a juicy jar of beets when he was dreaming up “Beat It” and didn’t have the nerve [...]
Dear Ann Landers: My 5 yr old told me this weekend he WAS living here for the rest of his life, so I put a sign on his bedroom door that says “Check Out Time is 18 Years Old.” Do you think I’m a bad mom?
Holy Yummers, Batman! OK, I’ve always wanted to say that about something I’ve eaten and today’s Saturday soup offered up just that opportunity—and, was chuck full of veggie servings to boot. Best of all. . .I whipped it up myself and pretty sure Batman would definitely say it was “super power” worthy.
I was also very [...]
Enough said.
Eating three servings of cherries on the way home from the grocery store at 9 pm after a big presentation is not a good idea. On the positive side, if you live in the Treasure Valley—Albertsons has some good looking and great tasting cherries in their stores right now. And, as I mention in the [...]
I NEVER, EVER thought the bright “eating spot” in my day would be a bowl of Cocoa Puffs laced with ground flax seed. Yeah, yeah – the fruits and veggies are sweet and shiny. But, a gal has to have a little chocolate and sugar.
You might remember that I vowed to eat two tablespoons of [...]
Dear Ann Landers: Geez. My 5 year old son leaves no stone unturned. He just found my deceased grandmother’s teeth in the back of my closet. He thinks they are so cool, he wants to take them to school for “sharing” tomorrow. Hmmm. Thoughts?
