Filed under: Food and Nutrition, Healthy KidsShopping around the internet for my kids' elementary school lunch menu, I came across a healthy snack list, which I quickly downloaded and printed. Here it sits in front of me, with its 52 snack ideas and accompanying nutritional information. Some items are undoubtedly nutritious: Apple slices, banana, orange, strawberries, grapes, and hardboiled egg all make the list. But the rest are a little iffy, in my opinion. Check ...

So far, I’m down 5 lbs from where I started my journey and 3 from where I started the challenge. Or I was on Monday anyways… I’ve decided to try and keep myself to weighing only once ...

The other day I went to the farmers market with my boyfriend and we bought a huge bunch of basil. I have found that since herbs are usually sold as a huge bunch for a very low price, it is worth only buying 1 or 2 types at a time. A lot of recipes include a few herbs at a time, but in order to not let any go to waste, I have had to ...

It was scary last year when the study came out revealing that tea tree essential oil could act like estrogen in our bodies, and may even cause enlarged breasts in young boys. That's been debunked; the possibility is that other ingredients in the products are more likely to blame. With all of the toxic chemicals in our body care products, it seems the more likely culprit.That said, it really is OK to use tea tree ...

Got a few picky eaters in your house? Well, so do I! In fact, I can be one of them ;)In our house, there are a few "no nos" such as: no vinegar, no fermented (except wine) or pickled foods, no tahini, mayo, or mustard -- anything pungent, it's out! Once in a while, there are a few exceptions, so I will never say never. For those foods which usually require these ingredients, I make ...

I spend a lot of time in front of a computer screen. Let’s call it 98% of my day. And that time is spent sitting, probably slouching, and sometimes eating. Now that I’ve admitted I’m a complete slob at life, I’d like to talk about a site I just joined that may change some of that. beYOU.tv is one of the rare healthy places on the Internet that isn’t all talk. It’s the kind of ...

Chances are you’ve heard — or rather, not heard — the effects of a noise gate, but unless you’re into audio engineering, you probably didn’t realize it. Ever been at a concert or listen to a radio broadcast where it sounds great when there’s music playing or a voice speaking, but no hiss in the pauses between? Unless the signal happens to be really clean, odds are that was a noise gate at work, removing ...
