Group Cleanse for the Month of November

I have decided to join the group cleanse for the month of November. NO, it is not eating all day for 30 days. It it a thirty day program on Isagenix. After listening to Susan Sly's call I was inspired to get focused and get back on board. I've maintained the same weight now for six weeks and I will not allow history to repeat itself by sliding into poor eating habits and gaining weight over the Christmas season! If you would like to join us or are interested, check out the Group on Facebook or contact me here.

Remember: Great health is REAL wealth!

Miso Vegetable Soup.

Yesterday, while wandering down the aisles I saw this. I have a fondness for Sushi and Miso Soup. There is something nourishing, exotic and intriguing about Miso... I surfed the Internet and there wasn't a recipe that I thought used ingredients I had so............
Sometimes recipes come from necessity and using what's in your fridge!
