Tales of Adventurous Eating

[ Post by Lisa Tedder ][ Post on June 1, 2010 ]

Lately my kids have been making fun of my adventurous attitude towards food.  Grace’s friends found out that I once made black bean brownies so they are suspicious of anything I make.  God forbid they find out about the pinto bean cake.  (For the record, the black bean brownies weren’t bad and I really don’t Read the full post…

More Chillin’ and Grillin’

[ Post by Lisa Tedder ][ Post on May 24, 2010 ]

Teenage girls are at a crossroads, nutrition and exercise wise.  They are old enough to make their own choices about food and parents have less input about what they eat.  Many teen girls become more inactive at this time, giving up sports.  I see many teen girls making poor choices that lead to 1. weight gain Read the full post…
