We live in a convenient world. It is easy to settle on a “value” meal at a fast food restaurant simply because we are too tired to cook or we want to give the children a reward. Our country is plumping up compared to the rest of the world because of our ability to make any food look and taste good, although it is slowly killing us. If you don’t want your child to suffer from physical complications later in life, you need to be responsible and put your foot down now. How can you reduce the odds of your child suffering from diabetes or heart disease later in life?

1. Home Cooking – Virtually anyone can cook a delicious and healthy meal from home. As long as recipes are followed to the letter and you adjust for altitudes when you’re baking, anyone can become a chef. Not only can cooking more at home influence healthier eating habits, but it can be cheaper as well. There are many dishes you can prepare that can improve the health of your family, and the Internet is chocked full of healthy recipes of all kinds. View Post

Sparkling truths happen when life happens. They’re those moments when you sparkle through unexpected challenges, brushing your shoulders off in bubbly style.

…Or the time that I took my boys (both under the age of 3) to a fancy restaurant and not only did they disliked the food by yelling “yucky” and “gross” but they started a food fight.

…And what about the time I had to scold my oldest son son for applying makeup on his brother claiming that he wanted him to look like a clown.  ty

..And the one time I was breasfeeding my son at the park and the cover up was blown away by the wind.

of course the list can go on and on…Now that you’ve read about my “sparkling truth”, it’s time to share yours!  How do you sparkle on when life throws you a curve ball? Leave a comment on this post or jump in the conversation on social media with the hashtag, #sparklingtruth.

This post was written as part of my sponsored partnership with the Stiletto Media Blogger Network.

Toyota is partnering with Food Bank For New York City to bring food to areas that were most impacted by Superstorm Sandy. The program – coined Meals Per Hour – activated a team from the Toyota Production System Support Center (TSSC), which shares Toyota know-how with nonprofits and other organizations to help them do more with less.

Focusing on a mobile food unit and a distribution program in New York’s Sandy affected area, Toyota sought to increase the number of meals that were given out in per hour. Through small, powerful changes, the team was able to increase the number of emergency meal boxes from 25 to 450 per hour! How brilliant is that???  

So if Toyota was able to think of a small change that created a powerful impact in a community, why can’t I?? 

My friends over at The Stiletto Media Blogger Network encouraged me to share insight on any small changes that has helped me over the years…Do you agree with them?  What else would you add to the list?   View Post
