A long time ago,
a wish started growing in my heart
At first, it was a quiet wish that nobody knew
Then it became an out-loud wish
that grew and grew and grew.
Until one day,
my wish came true

It is full of calcium and often low in calories and fat. I like Chobani yogurts because they offer a variety of flavors and they taste great. The […]
I am all about short cuts on days where life gets really busy, and that includes short cut on food preparation. I do my best to have at least 2 servings of vegetables every day. I usually eat vegetables with my lunch and dinner plate. Frozen vegetable packs are a staple in our freezer because […]

I’ve got plums. Tons of plums. My friend Sena has plum trees in her backyard and I went to town picking at the ripe, juicy fruits. I have never picked plums straight from the tree. It was a lot of fun picking them. Some of the fruits were so ripe that only a slight touch […]
