So, I got the green light from Sam and Gary to go ahead and create a Spark Page for Eden Members. This will be a place that we can track ALL our goals and progress. I want to make this page something that really represents Eden and all of you. What would you like to call it? Just Eden Fantasys: Eden Lives Healthy? Or would you like to call it something like Eden Fantasys: Health Freaks and Toy Geeks? I’d love some feedback on this so I can go ahead and create my Eden Spark page and create the group! I’m going to give it about a week so that others can come and offer up some feedback as well.

Yes! We went to the pool on Saturday afternoon and we had a blast! Both of my kids are doggy-paddling solo with vests! (3 and 5) I was so proud... plus, they slept like ROCKS!

Oh yeah. the girl child went in yesterday and pooped herself right out. It was great. She was back in this evening but I wasnt going in. It was too chilly out there for me.

I have been trying to change my eating habits, started eating peanut butter toast to help get some protein instead of snacking on chocolate etc

I've been considering walking more places. Besides gas prices being what they are, so so good for you.
Heh, well it's more out of necessity than anything else! We don't have a car here and the market is a 15 minute walk around some fairly steep hills... but hey, all the fresh food we could ask for, direct from the producer! Can't complain about that...

Spark People is a free website that you can use to track all your food/exercise/health goals! You create a profile, like here, and you can "friend/follow" people. It's all to encourage a healthy lifestyle. Plus, if others from here are THERE it's another place where we can encourage each other in our goals!

I think that is some pretty awesome exercise, hula hoops are HARD and use a huge amount of muscles

Oh yay! I've been avoiding Spark lately but would love something like this to help get me back in the swing of logging in daily... As for the title, I like the Eden Lives Healthy, but "Health Freaks and Toy Geeks" is pretty darn cute!

I really like 'Health Freaks and Toy Geeks' too. It's also a little more cryptic, haha.

Have you ever tried making your own pasta? "White" pasta isn't actually made with white flour, it's made with semolina usually... the fibre content in "white" and whole wheat pasta is actually almost identical.

My parents got me a pasta roller for last Christmas and it's my new favourite kitchen tool... you can get whatever kind of flour you like (we like local stone ground whole wheat), just add eggs and run it through the roller. Seriously the most delicious thing in the world.

I've switched and I don't really notice the taste. If you cook it a little softer than al dente, it's pretty damn comparable.
