It's that time again...
You know what time it is... resolution time! Last night, my husband and I discussed resolutions. More specifically, we disussed his resolutions. Personally, I think that any day is an appropriate time to make a resolution or set a new intention. So, I don't make January resolutions.

Change...for the better of our families' bodies
Why is it sooo hard to change our family's eating habits?
As arguably the smartest animal (sometimes I beg to differ) we are creatures of habit as like any other species. We like things when they occur consistantly and we know what to expect. What we don't like is change. I'll admit it. But, change is inevitable. It means that we are growing, and without growth there is not life, right? (And you're not dead yet, 'cause you're reading this!)
