Today is recipe day.    Here is one of my favorites. I love to take it to potluck dinners so there is something filling and yummy I can enjoy without giving myself a setback.  Next week I’ll post my favorite dessert — which I also take to potlucks for the same reason.  I also like…

You know now that your brain sends messages to your internal organs, and those messages vary depending on what  you eat.  Today’s post is about the foods that will help you give your body the right message.  This is a long post, but it outlines the whole plan.  You may want to print it out…

Think of your body as an airplane. You are the pilot of your personal “craft.”  The part of you that lives in your brain and makes the decisions, has the memories and feelings, is your conscious pilot.  You pilot your body in conscious decisions. But there is someone else in the cockpit.  I call it your…

Just as your muscles are strengthened with exercise, your…

I know — you don’t want to hear from ME today!  ;^)   Don’t worry!  I’m just going to say that I wish you a very Merry Christmas.  I hope all my readers have a wonderful day with their families. Eating to live and living for Christ, Susan Jordan Brown

Don’t let the fear of the time it will take to accomplish something stand in the way of your doing it.  The time will pass anyway; we might just as well put that passing time to the best possible use.  ~Earl Nightingale I don’t know who Mr. Nightingale is, but I like this quote.  Sometimes…
