Striving for Good Health

Happy Friday everybody! My post today is something a little out of the ordinary and doesn’t focus so much on heart disease or heart health but it’s just as important.

I read about this little girl’s story here and it broke my heart. She’s weathered an incredibly rough storm and she’s far from in the clear. I’ve never met her or anyone in her family but I can only wish them the best. Please keep her in your thoughts and prayers.

Easing the Pain with a Little Cinnamon Toast

I'm so sorry for the lack of posts this week - what a slacker blogger I've been! In my defense though, this is probably the busiest time of year at work for me. Lots of meetings to attend and annual updates to prepare. In addition, I'm coming down with a nasty cold.

When I was a young girl and got sick my mother always used to make me cinnamon toast for breakfast. It's warm, sweet and hits the spot when you're not feeling 100%.

All you need to do to make cinnamon toast is spread some margarine on a piece of bread, sprinkle it with cinnamon and sugar and stick it under the broiler until it's toasted and voila!!

I promise I'll be back with more heart health news later this week.
