Hey everyone! Had a great "Family Day" with the kiddos Gigi & Grampy & the Biermachers Friday! Also a beautiful catered event on Saturday. Yesterday was a git-r-done cleaning day followed by a card party and food with good friends. Sad to see the beautiful snow Turing to slush and hoping for some more beautiful big white flakes soon!(this IS Michigan after all!:)So, I get to talk with the fourth graders in my son's class tomorrow about eating a "Rainbow a Day" of fruits and vegetables, third year running! Love to inform kids about health & nutrition... Challenging thenm to help plan, shop for, incorporate different fruits and veggies into their daily meals and snacks. Are YOU up for the challenge? Here is a great printout for kids(and those adults who "don't like veggies")to help track which colors you've eaten daily: http://www.wegmans.com/pdf/EatARainbowEveryDay.pdf
