What's Better Than Dieting ? This is...
Let me set     the table for you…
Although I usually send you articles that I've been quoted in, this time you'll find three stories I've written for a variety of sites about subjects you know I'm passionate about:

-- cooking with your kids and being role models for them

-- relying on recipes that are fun to create and take little time to prepare and

-- picking snacks that pack a protein punch to help you feel satisfied.

If there's a subject that you'd like me to write about -- just let me know. I'd love to know more about what interests you! ;)
