New Year’s Resolutions….there’s an app for that.

It’s not even halfway through Janury yet and almost everyone I know has already started losing their steam on their resolutions.  So, here is some cool stuff to get you all remotivated and tickled pink about getting to your goals.  Yup…there’s an APP for that!

Top resolutions? (Totally unscientific…just looking at all the [...]

Ahhh…California

This is why it is amazing to own a pet care business in Los Angeles. Impossible to keep one’s heart closed to Nature with these backdrops.  Aaaaahhh…

Beautiful California garden

While walking I chanced upon this lovely flower garden & had to share. I love spring

Black bean brownies, anyone?

Here’s a quickie.   I haven’t tried this recipe yet, so I can’t weigh in (pun actually not intended) on taste, but  since the good doc forwarded the recipe and it caught my eye because it is chocolate AND since she and I share the same first name, I figure I’m game.  I’m such a sucker [...]

If you have had a heart attack, or know someone who has had one…

Each year, roughly 1.5 million Americans have a heart attack — and most of them survive. But I’ll bet you didn’t know that research shows that just one year after their diagnosis, the vast majority fail to adhere to the dietary changes that could prevent a second heart attack (think olive oil, fish, [...]

Anthem has a lot of nerve…and I’m furious

I’ve been advised, that as of October 1, 2010, my health insurance plan premiums are going up.  Not the 40% originally planned by Anthem Blue Cross, but a whopping 17%, meaning that my monthly payment for me and my daughter will go from $439 to $527. Annually that means an additional $1020 out [...]

Half a billion eggs

I switched my eating lifestyle about 6 months ago — going from the types of food that most North Americans eat — to organic meat, fish and poultry (i.e. free range and living with a bit more respect than the “product” farms”); and organic and locally grown produce.  I stopped buying any prepared [...]

Women Will Steer the Fate of Health Care Reform

By Dora Calott Wang, M.D., Author of The Kitchen Shrink: A Psychiatrist’s Reflections on Healing in a Changing World

As mothers, daughters, wives and leaders of households, women often steer the health care choices of families. Thus in the coming years, women will also be a major force toward implementing health care reform and the [...]

Organic reinvention

A few months ago, I watched a film called Food, Inc that so impacted my way of looking at food and how big business has literally changed the food we ingest, that I radically changed our family food preparation and consumption.  (For past posts, head over to the “Health and Fitness” category in [...]
