I too, am a soda Junkie

I know that soda is unhealthy, depletes my bones of calcium- but it tastes so GOOD! I love my alkaline water too, and since I am not a beer enthusiast sometimes you just need that carbonated power punch to go with your meals.
   ......I have found a pretty decent alternative Bai, known for their fruit juices has a legit and pretty tasty soda line. The line includes root beer, cream soda, cola and my favorite ginger ale. If you need a little more fruit flavor,  I recommend Izze drinks. The other two brands that are auto delivered to my house are San Pellegrino's prickly pear and Switch,  has a variety pack of 100% juice "sodas" that are very delicious.
     Happy Drinking!

Unconventional Breakfast

     You may call me weird, but I have never been a breakfast food at breakfast time girl. There are some occasions where I make exceptions to this rule, but normally I like a real meal for breakfast, a light lunch, and a hearty dinner.
      This morning I took the liberty of making one of those breakfast meals I so love.  Marinated salmon with red peppers, zucchini, and carrots in a light marinara, steamed green beans, and mashed sweet potato. I know you're saying that's a lot and no one has time for that but think of it like this: This meal is good for you it's 550 calories, 44g of protein, and 24 carbs and 28g of fat. That Bojagles chicken biscuit combo with fries and no drink is 730 calories, 42g of fat, 65 carbs, and a whopping 1,741mg of sodium. You do the math- which is better for you? You don't have to sacrifice flavor.
  

Nourishing Tiny Palates

I get a lot of comments on the pictures I post on Instagram, because of the meals I fix for the children at my school. Granted, CMS doesn't have the flexibility to do what I do because we are a private institution, we are not being reimbursed by the state so we can get creative with menus.
If you are interested in your child trying out my dishes while enjoying art, music and games, the you should join Avondale Adventures! There is  fun and adventure awaiting your children.
