Joy in Peace

The news this weekend is horrific.

There will never be peace
In this divided world.
There will never be understanding
With offenses so great.

I mourn what
I cannot understand:
Killing that never stops,
Offenses without end.

Joy in MUFAs

Found another notch in my belt!

Credit due to the MUFA diet. It's really easy to remember: your body wants to eat fat, and it needs it! So--choose Good fat instead of Bad fat. That's easy too: Bad fat comes from animals: bacon, ice cream, cheese, sausage, etc. Good fats come from plants: avocadoes, nuts, olives, bitter chocolate, etc. Just include a MUFA in a moderate sized meal INSTEAD of the bad fat. I'm not losing weight fast, but it is coming off!

What's your diet secret?
