Healthy Hearts


Kent has been encouraging our family to make healthier food choices by cutting any foods with trans-fats, partially hydrogenated oils, and excess sugar from our diets. For me, the biggest things to give up have been my beloved flavored coffee creamers, flour tortillas, and baking cookies with the girls. I am reading lots of labels when grocery shopping and checking our cabinets for hidden culprits like pretzels and graham crackers to throw out. Who knew pretzels would turn out to be an unhealthy snack? I'll be reading In Defense of Food by Michael Pollan sometime in the near future so I can be better educated about keeping us all healthier.
