How To Store Fresh Produce

As I'm sure your grocery cart is full of fruits and vegetables it is important to know how to store produce correctly so it lasts as long as possible, especially if you buy organic.

Avocados can be ripened quickly if put in a brown paper bag with a banana. Whereas if you want to slow the ripening process, put avocados in the fridge.

To store bananas long term, peel, slice and store in the freezer in a plastic bag. They will keep for awhile in the freezer and they work great for smoothies.

Wednesday's Hump Day Humor



A little boy goes to his father and asks,
'Daddy, how was I born?'

The father answers, 'Well, Son, I guess one day you will need to find out anyway! Your Mom and I first got together in a chat room on Yahoo. Then I set up a date via e-mail with your Mom and we met at a cyber-cafe. We sneaked into a secluded room and googled each other.There your mother agreed to a download from my hard drive. As soon as I was ready to upload, we discovered that neither one of us had used a firewall, and since it was too late to hit the delete button, nine months later a little Pop-Up appeared that said: YOU GOT A MALE!'

Sadie Frost's Anti-Aging Secret



Sadie Frost, the actress-turned-designer, PETA supporter, and vegetarian, looks amazing at age 45. So what's her secret? (cause she looks absolutely FANTABULOUS!!!!)

Green juice, yoga, and Pilates!

Sadie told Now Magazine, "I have a green juice every morning which contains avocados, pineapple, kale, omega oils, spirulina and protein powder. I do yoga, a Power Plate session, a Pilates class and a training session with my sister Holly Davidson every week."

By the way....
I'm actually not surprised because I've also noticed an improvement on my skin and on my body ever since I started drinking green juices and practicing Bikram Yoga. And I actually call Bikram Yoga "the fountain of youth".
