And yet closing doors is good for your sanity. Even in writing this post, I have saved the word file in five stages, so that if the material I cut out in version one seems important later on, I can go to file A and retrieve it. The horror of losing a precious sentence in penning this thing! My grieving over each decision — i.e. letting go of the options I didn’t pick — is precisely why I loathe grocery shopping and every other kind of shopping. Especially in America when you get to choose between eight kinds of apples: Washington local, organic, Pink Lady, Braeburn, Red Delicious, yada yada yada. I get over...

Foods that make the list are major disease fighters and can help improve quality of life, something we can all use on our next run to the grocery or farmers market! Registered Dietitian, Ellie Krieger of the Food Network, will also be appearing on the show to help explain the benefits of these super foods. Here are the delicious and nutritious, foods that make the list: Dr. Oz suggests four servings of vegetables a day, which should include disease fighters jicama, a great addition to a salad, kale, and sweet potatoes. Six servings of grain are suggested, but not your average white bread; Longevity grains include teff, millet, and amaranth. Apples,...

The rational, bah-humbug side wants to skip the tree and stockings. However, I also want to make the holiday season magical for my kids, because I’ve found that their wonder can be contagious. I almost blew it today. I almost told David there was no Santa Claus, or Tooth Fairy, or Easter Bunny. The practical, cynical, depressed side of my brain (the left) challenged the creative, optimistic, slightly manic side (the right) to a duel. For most of the afternoon, the left was winning. Why am I feeding my kids this Disney, make-believe crap that will make their fall to reality all the more crushing? I asked myself. Why encourage them to dream when they&#8217...

We have more choices than ever before. My friend told me she was “overwhelmed” by the eggs at a recent shopping trip – eggs! Evidently, there are too many varieties (whole grain, omega-3, cage-free, etc.). We’d also like to keep food costs down, which is not always easy, but increasingly important in this economy. But I worry that the economic recession is going to drive well-meaning people into a nutrition recession, too. Don’t let this happen to you. It is possible to save money on your grocery bill without sacrificing nutrition and I’m going to tell you how in this video. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=LvuC33j-_Xk Put fresh produce first. In-season fruits and vegetables are inexpensive and they have the best nutrition for the calories. ...

Shirley Kindrick, a registered dietician at the Ohio State University Medical Center, makes a good point. She says, “Selecting healthy food items is always important, but in an economy where money may be in short supply (and) families are under stress and people may be working longer hours or two jobs, a good diet is the basic foundation for staying healthy.” Or, as my grandma used to say, you can’t burn the candle at both ends! One tip for saving money while eating healthy is simply to serve a smaller portion of meat. Many people eat portions too large anyway, so instead serve a piece that is about as big as a deck of ca...

If there is an oxygen tank, I put it on the holder on the wheelchair on the back, or attach the straps to the back of the wheelchair.Seniors can bring their own wallets or purses, and can then handle paying for their own groceries when we are done. Women carry their purses on their laps, and men use their pockets or whatever type of knapsack or convenient carrier they use.Going to the grocery store can be a highlight of the day or week for a senior who is housebound.
