Finally, children, whatever is true,
whatever is noble, whatever is right,
whatever is pure, whatever is lovely, whatever is admirable - if anything is excellent or praiseworthy - think about these things. Phil 4:8 NIV
Are you still harboring a lot of halloween loot in various niches and crannies of your house? If so, have you noticed a difference in your children's behaviours and physical affects? Have
they noticed a difference? (Some "new" behaviours and affects might be tummy aches, sniffles, sore throat, hyperactivity, whininess, aggression, toothache, flatulence, diarrhea, constipation, hives, itchiness, bladder infections, bad breath, pimples, cold sores, canker sores, fatigue, etc. etc.) All that sugar and other not-good-for-you stuff can cause havoc for the immune system too of course. Perhaps it is time to start reverting back (or introducing) a healthier way of eating. You don't have to go whole hog here, but nourish with some good fresh, ripe, raw veggies and fruits and trash the leftover sweeties (other sugar-infused holidays are coming up, nobody will suffer deprivation for long, right?)
To make things more fun, here are a couple of links for delicious, de-yummy raw kid recipes to try... the first is from a raw uncookbook for kids 6-12 that you can watch by scrolling about 1/2 to 3/4 down the screen to the video that shows the two little girls who are helping their mom with the prep of some
fantastic afterschool snacks-- orange nutballs. The other link is for a recipe for delicious '
strawberry ice creem' that is almost too tasty to be believable as a 'living' (healthy) food. Both recipes are sweet without any added processed sweeteners. I would really love to hear some comments about these lovely recipes if you don't mind letting me know what you think after you (and your kids?) try the recipes... notice how you feel providing truly healthy treats for your little ones! Mwahhhh
