Tradition!
And how do we keep our balance? That I can tell you in one word: Tradition! Intellectually I know my beloved Tevye wasnt thinking about healthy living when he spoke about tradition being the key to a balanced life, but in my misfit mind he was. Life balance. Family balance. Mental balance. For me, without tradition, Id definitely be as shaky as a fiddler on the roof. Im ... Continue Reading

Mindful living.
I wish all of you were here with me at my house. More specifically sitting along side me in my office: (oh and lest you imagine it's all as immaculate as my desk---this is what's behind me. a mess of a (finger quote) fitness center (unFQ).) Because then I could lovingly turn to you and say: I know youre so very busy (& we'd digress to chatting about why GROWN UPS ... Continue Reading
The foods my Grandmas ate.
Many days around here it feels as though life is pretty complicated. Important decisions to be made. Work to be completed. Schedules to be juggled. Priorities to be identified. Priorities to be *lived* & not lip-serviced. All that. Not to mention our commitment to being healthy. Thankfully, the more I ponder our healthy living, the more I realize a return to ...
