Takin' care of yo' self

Sudden changes in your health...or sudden changes in the health of those you love...often makes you do an about face....you start to do things just a little different.

Guess you could refer to it as a "wake up call."

I don't live a terribly unhealthy life. I don't smoke, I don't drink Jack Daniels, and, I only eat at buffets once in a blue moon. ;)

One thing I don't LOVE is really really healthy food. I am a southern girl...and I like good food.

Anytime I find a recipe that TASTES good and is HEALTHY at the same time...I will make it over and over again.

Cooking Light magazine is a good one....in my opinion.

So, I plan to share some heart healthy recipes with you. Maybe once a week...

My plan is to try them first...and if they are good....I will share. So I will be the Guinea Pig.

Take the time to take care of yourself. Read labels....count calories....notice saturated fat....red meat once a week...

You can still enjoy food and life and take care of yourself at the same time.

Not saying I do...so this is therapy for me too. Encouragement for me to cook more heart healthy for the Shorty family than I already do. Certainly won't hurt.

Take care :)
