Monday Manifest on Wednesday
I found this list of 30 Healthiest Foods on this blog here. She got it from an article in Real Simple Magazine, you can read here. I have bold faced the foods we eat, or I should say my kids eat on a regular basis. I do eat some of those foods, but I am a very picky eater. I have come light years from where I was even five years ago, ask my husband and family. I am NOT a super healthy person, I am trying and failing miserably. I ,in reality, need to lose quite a bit of weight, but that is whole separate post. I do work really hard with my giving my kids good foods, and explain to them (really just Sonya right now) why we eat foods that are good for us. I am also not saying my kids never eat junk, because that would be a lie!! Anyway I thought I would share this list because it is good info and great things to add to your diet.
