Health, well being, and good eats:
– The brand new meals pyramid. Do I feel it’s excellent? No. I feel there are lots of people who find themselves unable to tolerate or digest massive quantities of animal merchandise and dairy. I’m undecided the place beans are positioned on the pyramid and it’s lacking the nuance in terms of saturated fats. On the similar time, I feel it’s an enormous step in the fitting path. I like the emphasis on entire, unprocessed meals, numerous fruits and veggies, and a reasonable strategy to grains (particularly right here within the US the place many our grains have been compromised).
And whereas I don’t assume that refined sugar and processed meals needs to be part of each day life, we sitll make room for the enjoyable stuff each every now and then (see under lol).

I made some nutella pastries and in addition some Pop Tart creations with strawberry jam, easy icing and sprinkles.
