I finally got a chance to read through the zillions of emails I signed up for this morning before my dentist appt.  There were some goodies in there.  I love the daily tips, and tip 11 really struck me, so I had to share.

Secret #11: Get cooking.

Some of my earliest memories are of being in the kitchen with my mother and grandparents. I was stirring and mixing before I could reach the countertop, and in high school, my "chore" was making dinner. I'm quite lucky that my family recognized the importance of home-cooked meals, and that is a habit I've carried into adulthood. Dinner is never fancy, rarely complicated, and often rushed--poached eggs over steamed spinach and whole-grain toast is a busy weeknight meal--but it's always healthy.
You don't need a culinary degree or hours each night to cook a healthful dinner.
