This is the start of my new healthy nutritional eating blog...  with a few splurge exceptions. I am learning it is better to try to eat healthy each day and when you fail, like falling off a bike, get right back on, don't wait for Monday!

So basically what I am doing is eating MORE FRUITS & VEGETABLES, and less animal products, and less processed foods. I am eating more tree nuts and natural foods. I am cutting down on oils too. My eldest daughter sat her Dad & I down to watch 'Fork over Knives' on Netflix. It is a great documentary, and was quite convincing. Needless to say, Hubby has lost over 20lbs since starting this new way of eating a few weeks ago, and I have lost 10. Not too shabby.

It can be fun and delicious, so I will be posting some of my favorites here for my viewers as well as for self motivation, when I need to come back in and look and say 'oh yeah, lets have this today!' :)

SO enjoy, hope it's helpful!!!

I am starting with an all time favorite, Pasta Primavera! YUMM!!!

I always told my kids while they were growing up, to be healthy, beautiful, and smart, eat more fruits and veggies. ~ In the beginning, God instituted all the fruit from the trees, (except one) for His first people and later prior to the flood, veggies from the earth. His natural foods were what pre-flood people ate and these same people lived to be almost 1000 years old!!! I'm not saying we can attain longer life, but perhaps better quality of life while we are blessed with it ...and so here's to good health! :)

And a little candlelight always dresses up any meal ...
