I have begun a 5-Day Sugar Challenge to check in on my use of sugar in my diet. I have switched to healthy sugars; however, sugar is hidden in many foods. Processed sugar is one of the leading variables for many of our chronic diseases, including cancer and obesity; it promotes inflammation, weakens the immune system, and triggers brain imbalances.


Here's the link to join the 5-Day Sugar Challenge. On the first day, we were all asked to track our sugar intake for 24 hours. I've had some friends express interest in joining, and I think it's a fantastic opportunity for us to support each other in our journey towards healthier eating. It's completely free and a great way to gain insights into your sugar consumption.



If you don't have the time to participate, I will be sharing my journey over the next few days in support of our optimal health. Stay tuned.

"Grandmas never run out of hugs or cookies."


Summer is a time of welcoming family to our homes, especially excited grandchildren embracing two months of life outside school hours. One of the best things we can have on hand for our big kids and those with grandchildren is a cookie container filled with these healthy chocolate chip cookies.


One of my favourite treats is a chocolate chip cookie. My neighbour introduced me to these delicious flourless cookies last weekend. All week, I was hoping to make them. With warm temperatures, I gave up the kitchen to paddle on the water and enjoy the lakeside breezes. Today, after my early morning walk, I vowed to make them.


Well, the theme of ease continues with cooking and baking. I found these cookies so easy to make, with just a few simple ingredients and a straightforward process. After they cooled and hardened, we gave them a try. I am excited to share that they were tasty!


The forecast predicts clouds and rain this weekend. Why not take this time to replenish your cookie jar with healthy flourless cookies? The only difficult part is keeping from eating more than one!

"The universe is not outside of you. Look inside yourself; everything you want, you already are." - Rumi.

These words by the poet Rumi invite us on a journey of self-discovery and introspection. When we contemplate that the universe is not external to us but instead exists within, we are encouraged to explore the depths of our being.


As we turn our focus inward, we unearth treasures of untapped potential, wisdom, and strength within us. This introspective journey is a lesson in cultivating self-awareness, mindfulness, and self-acceptance. Rumi's words are a potent reminder that true contentment and completeness are not found in external validation but within us.


Turn up the volume on Michael Beckwith's song "Life is Good." Trust yourself and your inner light, power, spirit, or your belief! I listen regularly to this song, which confirms .that life is good and that I am ready, prepared, and excited to move forward with positivity, faith, and love.


Are you ready to join me on this transformative journey.?
