Happy Thanksgiving!

Thanksgiving is quickly approaching and I couldn't be more excited. Having Grady (he's almost 1!) here this year makes the holidays so much more rich and full. I can't wait to share our family traditions with him and start a few new ones.

With the holidays within arm's reach, it makes me think about how thankful I am for family, friends and good health. To often though, we forget about how important our health really is and compromise it by indulging in the comfort of holiday fare. "I'll start working out and watching what I eat in January" is too common a phrase... why wait?? This year I would challenge you to consider enjoying food for what it really is... nourishment. Let food accentuate your holidays by providing the nutrients and energy your body needs. However let your family and friends give you the comfort you need through conversation and community. Happy Thanksgiving... may you count your health as your biggest blessing!
