Let’s face it. For many, the Fourth of July is not only an occasion to celebrate the Declaration of Independence with friends and family…it’s a reason to drink, and drink a lot. I recall one barbecue I attended years ago which began with what was being called a “triathlon”, which was actually anything but; […]
Read More ›A piece from the Times the other day really did a great job at illustrating how for so many people, eating ‘healthy’ food is a constant battle, even for those who do so most of the time.
