Thinking 

Healthy Eating

My biggest problem is having the food prepared and ready to serve. So my goal and resolution is to be prepared the night .

Watching

I watched Slumdog Millionaire and forgot how good the  movie was.

Favorite

I am going to share some healthy recipes

Apple Smoothie

2 red delicious apples, cored (with peel)

1/2 teaspoon ground cinnamon

1/4 teaspoon ground nutmeg

1 frozen banana, peeled and sliced

1/4 cup whole pecans *

8 oz. Almond milk

Start by adding the liquid to your blender), followed by the soft fruit. Add the remaining ingredients. Blend on high for 30 seconds or until the smoothie is creamy.

* You can make this recipe two different ways. If you prefer the flavor of apple pie filling, leave out the pecans from the recipe above. If you like the whole apple pie, crust and all, then add the pecans.

Activity

The best thing I've done was joining an organized exercise group.  I know myself, someone needs to be in front of me to exercise.  This has been a great life change. Great instructors and a great facility.

School Thoughts

My kiddos loved this unit.  

It introduces "time" in math.   

Minute to Win It activities are a hit with the kiddos.

There are many activities to start off the year.
