Create Something Colorful

The New Year is here. Most of us have long lists of resolutions which we plan to closely follow in hopes of becoming better, healthier versions of ourselves.  Want to know some of mine and how they are coming?

1.) Run a marathon: The most exercise I've completed in this new year is taking down the Christmas tree - and it tired me out.
2.) Cook and eat healthier: I just ate two chocolate chip cookies for breakfast.
3.) Go to bed early and wake up and seize the day: No amount of coffee yet has proved to help me seize the day before 9 AM.

My point is, resolutions are a great way to encourage ourselves to become healthier people.  But it's OK if we  don't master them perfectly three days into the New Year, or even within ten months of the ball dropping. We're human, and we are bound to slip up and eat a cookie or four for breakfast one morning.

Here's my suggestion for a healthy New Year's Resolution this year: Create Something Colorful. In the kitchen, I mean.  I love food. The good, the bad, and the ugly (and by ugly I mean my unfortunate cravings for Wendy's fries).  If I want to cook a healthier dinner, I make it fun by creating something colorful.  A healthy dose of kale in my zuppa tuscana, a garnish of apple over my roasted pork tenderloin, a pop of cranberries sauteed with my green bean and pecan salad.
