Read an interesting article from Reuters that I thought I would share. It’s about the almond potential to boost immune health and reduce inflammation.
It’s time to talk about food and common sense again. Well, I am not sure how much I will actually talk about common sense but that’s what I want to call it. So buck up! Gear up! Get ready to pay attention!
What’s the point of writing about food? What’s the point about caring about what we eat?
It’s a real bummer that fish is getting more contaminated. Especially since wild caught fish is so healthy otherwise. A new study by the US
Let’s talk about green beans. I am a huge fan of green beans… especially Italian style. Almost every time I go to visit my grandma she makes green beans cause she knows how much I like them.
