Barbara Grant won the Skinny Dish. With the beautiful weather we’re having, choices for meals are getting easier because gardens are producing salad fixins and fresh vegetables. So healthy choices are abundant or we are not wanting to cook or prepare food, so we’re heading out to eat.We all need to make choices. Not easy! Just some things to think about.
Our chapter of TOPS is very supportive and can offer realistic ways to lose pounds sensibly. So, you’re welcome to check us out. For more information, call Pam Richardson at 538-8760. Love to hear from you.
