This past week, I've been reading and studying a lot about why a healthy diet is so important.   Then I went to the local grocery store and walked up and down the aisles taking mental notes of all the foods that would be considered healthy.  I came away feeling very grateful for how blessed we are to have easy access to such a large variety of good foods that strengthen our bodies.  

I'm going to start collecting "favorite" healthy recipes that use these whole/unprocessed ingredients.  (I'll be a loyal customer of the farmer's market this summer.)  I want to fill my recipe book with yummy ideas, and my fridge, freezer and pantry with healthy ingredients.   I've set up pages to the right to organize the recipes I find.  Only those recipes that are worth making over and over again will be posted.

Let the culinary adventure begin!

Here is the EXERCISE ROUTINE I've created for myself:

Curves for Women:  Mondays, Wednesdays & Fridays

Brisk walk 45 minutes a day:    15 minutes during my morning, noon, and afternoon breaks Monday- Friday

Walk up Old Main Stairs:         Monday - Friday

Weekend Adventure:      When possible, I'm going to plan recreational adventures such as canoeing, hiking, biking, swimming etc.  There are so many places in Utah I've wanted to explore but have never taken the chance - now I'm going to. (I'll be inviting friends to join me ;-)
