Fizzy Lifting Drinks and Coconut-Ice Skating Rinks
Mar 22nd, 2009 by Naama
Like many children all over the world I remember falling in love with “Charlie and the Chocolate Factory” which became one of my all time favorite books. Long before Tim Burton and Johnny Depp forced their Freudian theories down our throats I used to read it over and over again visualizing all of Roald Dahl’s beautiful inventions: the chocolate river, hard candy boat and the great glass elevator.
As an adult, though, I found myself dreaming mostly of the Three-Course Dinner Chewing Gum. A candy that is a three course dinner all in itself: Tomato Soup, Roast Beef and Baked Potato, and Blueberry Pie and Ice Cream. Not just bad artificial flavor, but an actual meal were the soup is hot, potatoes crispy and the ice cream creamy and cold, I’d tell myself while looking yet again at an empty fridge, remembering that I forgot to get groceries.
Busy lives and full schedules mean that most of us don’t have the time to prepare three course meals, or even the energy to fantasize about them during the week. While I Hope most people don’t often find themselves with nothing but ginger ale and instant soup, many could use some help figuring out how to shop for healthy and easy to prepare meals.
Dietitian Carolyn O’Neil will show you how to do just that – fit a healthy diet to the busiest schedule!
