Two world-renowned musical artists passed away during the last nine days.  First was George Beverly Shea, at age 104, beloved for his singing of How Great Thou Art while touring with the Billy Graham Evangelistic Crusade.

A Springtime present you might enjoy sharing with family and friends is the Eat Fresh website, which features budget-friendly tasty recipes and easy-to-understand nutritional information.       For feeding our Spirit…here is a seasonal phrase from early American Poet, William C.

We’re speaking French today? What does an endearment term, loosely translated my little sweetheart, have to do with National Nutrition Month? Literal translation of mon petit chou is “my little cabbage.” Now we are on to something since cabbage, whether red, green, Savoy, Napa, bok choy or brussels sprouts, is a nutritional powerhouse with disease

With the return of March as National Nutrition Month, it seemed fitting that we start from the Outside-In by identifying foods which contribute to healthy skin.  Before food, though, the essential nutrient water, needs to be given priority in our quest for a shining epidermal outer layer. A quick Google search on healthy skin leads
