My friend Domino has for 30 years made Christmas cookies for her hubby from Halloween through New Year’s.  There were a dozen types he liked and she was such a good cook.  She denied him nothing.   Two years ago, he had some health problems that necessitated a change in his eating habits.  He still loved his treats.  Domino realized it was up to her to take charge of his health as long as she was the one who cooked for him.  If she wanted to keep him around, that is.  She decided she did.

Fruit and Berry Kabobs

She put away the flour, butter and sugar and began making protein, vegetable and relish trays for him each evening, including chunks of grilled chicken tossed in buffalo sauce, cubes of low fat cheeses, or his favorite celery sticks with lowfat peanut butter.  She bought fresh and canned fruit and made him banana, berry and fruit kabobs.   She’d mix him light and healthy drinks with sparkling water, lemon slices and fruit, as well as fragrant and relaxing teas and lowfat cocoas and cappuchinos for after dinner.  It’s such an elevated way to honor your beloved, to feed him only what keeps him healthy and whole.  And if you know it is his habit to munch in front of the tv, have something good for him.

I just saw a lower number on the scale than I’ve seen in 20 years, and I’m neither dehydrated nor nude. I rock! My cheat food this week was vanilla Chobani — I love its creamy, custardy, tartness plus it’s zero fat.  Yogurt gives me hot flashes like a motherbear but only if I eat too much at one sitting.  I’ve changed my eating habits drastically since my previous carcass eating lifetime of  processed and fast food.  I tied cause to effect and, one by one, stopped eating the foods that my body couldn’t handle — for me, that was fats and processed foods. Now, each year since 2005,  I find myself being led to more healthful food and lifestyle choices, and working out a little more each year.  I’m younger and healthier now than I was 10 years ago.   I feel my diet has sent me back 20 years.  Continue reading →

Sometimes I feel like a marshmallow on a stick at the edge of the flame.  I am cooked faster by some people and events than by others, depending on how close to the situation I want to get, and how much I allow it to touch me.

Why we’re cooked faster by some people than others

Have you ever felt so filled with love that it didn’t matter if you squeezed it out onto one person alone or everyone everywhere?  Yeah, me too.
