Alright, folks, get ready for the ultimate diet showdown! In one corner, we have the Mediterranean diet, a culinary journey through sun-kissed shores and delectable flavors. And in the other corner, we have the Vegan diet, a plant-powered revolution that’s taking the world by storm. It’s time to compare these heavyweight contenders in five categories…
Make it a MOM-entous day
My hubby makes the same Mother’s Day joke every year. “I’d love to help you repeat the act that made you a mother in the first place.” I tell him we can discuss that any other Sunday. Mother’s Day is mine. My version of the perfect Mother’s Day doesn’t involve fancy dinners, chocolates or extravagant…

Who gives a chip?
Raise your hand if you like potato chips… (wow, that’s a lot of hands) Now, I love processed foods as much as the next gal, but I also know how bad they are for you. In my quest to give my kids the potato chips they craved and not turn them into those weird…
Not so Fast-Food
In the words of the great Ferris Bueller, “Life moves pretty fast. If you don’t stop and look around once in a while, you could miss it.” I think that quote perfectly describes the way I used to eat. Allow me to explain… When I was a kid I sat across from my older brother…
