Pimento Cheese, Not Your Grandma's Spread

Pimento cheese is one of those foods that has been so corrupted by the food industry that it has become synonymous with other crappy foods like Spam.  I'm not even certain what store bought pimento cheese might contain, nor do I want to find out.  It's a shame because pimento cheese can be a delightful treat, even if it does Read the full post…

Plum Good BBQ Sandwiches

In a few days it will officially be fall but the temperatures are still warm enough for me to continue swimming for a few more days.  The breeze was a little cool but that didn't stop me from swimming several laps this morning and I felt great afterwards!  Have you exercised lately?  With fall's cooler temperatures and fewer insects, you Read the full post…

Shingles Vacine and Treatment

A friend of mine was recently diagnosed with shingles so I felt I should discuss this nasty virus once again.  If you ever had chicken pox, you are at risk for getting shingles and believe me, you don't want it.  Shingles is a painful rash with blisters that scab over and may take 4 weeks or more to heal.  The Read the full post…

Vegetarian Tacos are muy delicioso!

There are times when I think I could easily become a vegetarian, especially when I try a new dish that is as good as the vegetarian tacos I had at Local Lime restaurant in Little Rock and the tofu fried rice at Sai Tai here in Jonesboro.  My husband and I celebrated our 23rd anniversary this past weekend by spending Read the full post…

Vacation Lessons For A Healthier Life

Challenge

[ Post by Lisa Tedder ][ Post on April 26, 2012 ]

A friend has extended a challenge I cannot refuse.  Can I feed a family of four for a week for $100?  I had been thinking about this very idea when my friend and I talked about this issue.  Many families are cutting their budget wherever possible and food, though necessary, is no exception.  Families are Read the full post…

[ Post by Lisa Tedder ][ Post on April 24, 2012 ]

I’m happy to report that there were no cooking accidents this weekend at the HMG Health and Wellness Expo this past weekend.  Since I was using a blender, I did have a few nightmares that something spectacular would go wrong.  After all, I did heat up the oven once at the first Expo I did Read the full post…

Food Intolerances, What Can I Eat ?

[ Post by Lisa Tedder ][ Post on April 19, 2012 ]

This is probably a question that pops up immediately when someone learns they have a food intolerance.  Changing one’s diet to eliminate a common food such as milk or wheat can be daunting.  Eating with the rest of the family who does not share your intolerance is frustrating.  It is hard watching my family order Read the full post…

Food Allergies And Food Intolerances

[ Post by Lisa Tedder ][ Post on April 17, 2012 ]

It seems I have quite a few friends with food allergies, food intolerances and sensitivities these days.  I just finished an article for Midsouth Latino magazine on the subject and learned quite a bit.  To my great sorrow, I suffer from an allergy to shellfish.  I didn’t develop this allergy until I was an adult Read the full post…

Leftover Ham, Continued – Ham With Corn And Cabbage

[ Post by Lisa Tedder ][ Post on April 12, 2012 ]

It’s 5:30 a.m. and I have no business being up.  I’m sleepy, grumpy and dopey, that makes me three of the seven dwarfs.  Getting up because of someone else’s schedule sucks.  But that doesn’t help with leftover ham, does it?  At this point, I could just stand in the open refrigerator, cramming some ham in Read the full post…

What To Do With Leftover Ham – Pasta And Ham in a Lemon Cream Sauce

[ Post by Lisa Tedder ][ Post on April 10, 2012 ]

I may be weird but I love leftovers.  Having leftovers in the fridge means anything from a nice lunch to a dinner I don’t have to cook, to a dinner partly fixed.  We had the most lovely Easter dinner Sunday evening and of course, leftover ham. The weather has been glorious lately and we have Read the full post…

We Try Something New

[ Post by Lisa Tedder ][ Post on April 5, 2012 ]

Wow!  There has been so much health information released lately and I’m trying to absorb it all and pass it on to my readers.  I spend many hours watching the news and reading to keep updated on the latest because I realize that many of you can’t devote that much time.  I then try to Read the full post…

BIG Announcement!

[ Post by Lisa Tedder ][ Post on April 3, 2012 ]

I just can’t wait any longer to share the news.  My blog is about to become a website!  I have been frustrated that my blog isn’t very user friendly (as have my readers!) so I have been working with a friend to make some changes.  Recently, I met Manu Nair who owns a web and Read the full post…
