Dashing through the snow

Well, that time is almost here again.  The celebration of Christmas,  I love this time of year...celebrating Jesus' birth, the christmas lights, get-togethers with friends and family, christmas programs, giving that perfect gift and of course the yummy treats....ohhhh the yummy treats.  That seems to get the best of me during this time of year--I'm sure you can relate, right, maybe...ok, just humor me please.  :)

My good friend Traci and myself just released a really delish digital cookbook that has 50+ recipes that can help you  eat a little healthier now and throughout the whole year.  I LOVE it because it takes the guesswork out of finding a really yummy, but healthy recipe--total time saver.  So, if you are looking for a gift for Aunt Sally who literally has everything--buy her a digital cookbook...and maybe one for yourself!    You can find it at  http://www.yourwellnessjourney.com/  (ok shameless plug oficially done!)



My food for thought:

So, the kiddos were asking for a sweet treat tonight after supper...and I had one ready in about 3 minutes using 2 ingredients...I call it my Black Cherry Sorbet....and you might find it in ummm maybe a really cool ecookbook-just sayin'.  It goes like this:

1 banana
1 c. frozen black cherries (unsweetened)

Place both in mini food processor and blend well.  Serves 2 normally or only 1 of my children  :)

Seriously it doesn't get any easier...
Enjoy, without the guilt!  Yeah, finally something you can eat that you don't have to breakdown into minutes on treadmill per bite!

So here's to spreading holiday cheer, but not waistlines... xoxo
