Reading Novels and Weight Loss

onwhyn_princess_carolinexIt’s an interesting correlation, isn’t it – reading novels and weight loss?

But truly, something kind of clicked for me there. Reading about all those historical heroines and their dresses and their meals. … And it tied in with lots of info I get on a daily basis at my job at Lifescript.

My mom found out she had it, and we’ve been bending our heads and comparing notes on SPF numbers, UV rays, and which sunscreen can be applied under makeup.

Are you a California girl? Do you spend time in the sun? Were you a teenager like me, who (gasp!) used to slather baby oil all over herself to bake for hours on end? (egads! I can’t believe I did that!) Come visit if you get a chance. I’d love to hear from you!

Here’s the link: “Skin Cancer: The Day it Hit Home.”

Does Learning to Cook Equal Good Health?

Hi, all!

I’m blogging over at Health Bistro today on “Do You Have to Learn to Cook to be Healthy?

I’m sharing stories involving Valencia Libby (between you and me, for those of you who know her — she’s the one who lived with me for the summer at UCLA) and my poor roommate Debbie R. with the garlic-salt incident. …

Come on over and share your own “learning to cook” stories! And I’d love to know what you think about the premise that we really need to know how to cook to lead healthy lives. …
