Tuesday Feb. 12, 2013:  Today was a better day.  And we made such an amazing dinner.  Full of flavor!  Even Ryan commented on how fantastic the meal was.  He said that if you can eat healthy and have it taste this good, why would you not eat healthy?  It made me smile.

If you need a delicious chocolate snack and like bananas, get the Dole Banana Dippers!  I found them in the freezer section of my local super center for about $3.00 and it comes with 6 packages of frozen bananas covered completely in dark chocolate.  Each pack contains four slices of banana and it was the perfect snack.  And dark chocolate has been shown in studies to help lower your blood pressure, improve blood flow, and may prevent arteriosclerosis.  (Just a little fun fact from me to you for American Heart Health month.)  Enjoy!
