New Year Resolutions / was PAT AND EVERYONE - Getting Late - so Happy New Year! ;) and a Thank-You

[Guest guest]

Good idea, Marie. Yes, I have made some

resolutions pertaining to health this year.

 

First off, I've decided to eat more and more raw

foods. I've always disliked leafy salads

(although chopped up vegetables that sometimes go

into salads, dressed as a salad, I've always

enjoyed). This last year I started to add more

and more uncooked leafy greens (and more cooked

ones too) into my meals, with the result that I

really miss it if I don't get them. I love my

salads now, the more variety of leaves in them

(along with other things) the better. NOW, for

2008 I plan to eat more raw foods in general. I

already eat a lot of fruit (not other kinds of

dessert except once in a long while), but it's

the veggies. And of course, I'd like to start

sprouting grains etc. and see what I can make

with those.

 

Also, a small thing, I tried my first 'green'

smoothie this morning. I just threw some lovely

romaine in with the fruit and water instead of

soymilk, gave it a whirl and there it was,

beautifully fresh and clean and delightfully

tasting of a summer garden. There are lots of

recipes kicking around these groups, so I'm going

to make a collection of them and start trying

them. Sooooooo healthy and so refreshing!

 

My other resolutions don't pertain to eating,

health or weightloss. Oh but wait, one of them

does. I have promised myself to spend more time

on my yoga - it does me so much good that I think

why not devote more time to what makes me feel

fit, relaxed and happy!

 

Okay, over to you guys. Any resolutions? You know

I used to say I wouldn't make them because as

soon as they're made they're broken. But Marie's

right - keep them modest and attainable - then I

think they have a hope of lasting the month out

at least If not, then I'll make them again

just before the Chinese New Year!!!

 

Love and hugs, Pat
