Hot???
Eat PLenty of Salad and Drink Water
Last night we had vegtable beef soup for supper.My wife brought a couple ears of sweet corn, stalk of celery, a couple carrots, fresh green beans, a zuchini squash, cabbage home and cut them up. She cooked them and I added the beef I cooked before and she added a couple cups crushed tomatoes. This was an awesome meal!She made whole wheat Bread and we had Amish Roll Butter to put on the bread with some Colby Cheese. Wow, my son Caleb said soup in the summer time but I have to tell you it was light enough and hit the spot, even though it was hot it was very refreshing.

Henry’s Health …Tid Bits
First to a large part most of us KNOW BETTER than we eat or do.
So today is a good day to start to eat the RIGHT FOODS….
1.First hurdle in eating healthy is we don’t have the healthy food readily available … change what you buy , BUY fresh , healthy, raw, lean, whole, and the list could go on and on…is it good??? or good for your body.
2.Hey, stop putting that good food away in your pantry or refrig, you don’t eat it unless its handy and ready to eat …If it’s fruit or veggies wash them if they need to be cut to be eaten, cut it up…just watch your kids or your better half , start eating them up, Fresh cut Melon and Cantaloupe, Honey-Dew, what a fun way to cool down. Blueberries, Blackberries and Rasberries in a dish with some fresh peaches maybe a little sweetner and extra hot need a real cool down freeze them and thaw slightly and watch out, or you eat the whole bowl! Why do we grab the chips and fatty food I think by habit and because we like them and that OK but we can start liking the GOOD FOOD …Chips, Pretzels, Cookies and Sodas our handy and easy and fun . Somehow we need to make the Good stuff handy and fun too.
3. Start now…we all at different places in life and we all have different needs and health issues so some have to make big changes fast but most of us need to start with slower changes, so we don’t give up.Those eating fruits and veggies now maybe need to change up to higher quality and more nutritious veggies, instead of corn and potatoes, maybe try BROCCOLI or Spinach with a Sweet Potatoe. Those baking can put less sugar in than the recipe calls for , ”my wife puts in some fresh ground whole wheat flour and less sugar and lots of times we don’t mind at all”. Salads, use more nutritious lettuce, than Iceburg or use it and mix it with Green or Red l;eaf lettuce and Spinach…all kinds of recipes for healthier dressings and low-cal this or that but try to eat more the way God made it food. I could talk about Apple Cider Vinegar or Olive Oil but I want to keep it simple.
Enjoy HEALTH, BUY the better Choice of Fresh Healthy Foods ..PREPARE it so its handy and then enjoy the fun of Healthy Eating.
