Wise Words From JC

Well, by "JC" I was talking about Julia Child, but Jesus Christ also has a lot of wise words as well. :-)

Today's 25, 25, 25

Aug 5... 20 days left until 25:

"Find something you're passionate about and keep tremendously interested in it" - Julia Child

Money-saving Nutrition Tip:

Here's something that saved me today- Make extra of a particular meal you're cooking, package leftovers in Pyrex containers and take to work the next day. It saves lots of time on cooking and you have fresh food for lunch! I ate leftover coconut curry lentils and rice today, along with a fruit parfait. It was delicious and kept me full all afternoon! Later, I sipped on a warm cup of Good 4 You Tea Chai Tea in my freezing-cold office.

This evening, I ran a Shaw's/Osco-sponsored grocery store tour today for people with diabetes. It is a 90-minute store tour and covers the fundamentals of healthy eating, a carbohydrate-controlled diet, and the nuances of label-reading. It was a great tour and I thank all those that came out to learn about managing their diabetes!
