nutritional ramblings

Berries, Oh how I love berries.

I could eat them everyday....if I could.

Raspberries are my favorite with blueberries close behind.

Blackberries are yummy, too.

We have a blackberry bush that has produced...

I don't know maybe 50-75 quarts by the time its through.

So of course I have to make desserts with them like

this one.

I have no will power when it comes to berry desserts.

So I had this for a midmorning snack.

After I ran of course so I would not pack the pounds back on.

But I can't feel too bad, since blackberries are good for you.

Speaking of things that are good for you.

Look at what I discover while taking my kids to a new pediatric dentist.

This gum supposedly prevents cavities.

The hygentist stated that the xylitol in the gum is a natural sweetener found in trees

and it helps kill the bacteria that causes cavities.

She also stated that it also kills the bacteria that causes ear infections.

Sign me up!

I asked where can I get some, and my family

has been chewing the gum ever since.
