I’ve received samples of Oatmeal to Go and World of Grains cookies in the mail the last few days and I’ll let you know what I think of them as soon as I have some quiet time to sit down and really savor them. I did already try them, but um, they went down too fast for me to have a good evaluation, haha!

Have you tried these products? Let me know what you think!

Oh and aside from these, I still have a long-overdue book review of Eat, Shrink & Be Merry cookbook. Just a short one first: this book is FUN! More later…

Tea Time

Check out Mark’s Daily Apple’s very well written article about teas. Mark points out tea’s health benefits and hazards (a bit strong a word, but you know what I mean), the differences between black, green, and white teas, and why loose leaves are better than bagged teas. Very informative!

Eating Fabulous, One of 100 Inspiring Healty Eating Blogs

Eating Fabulous Invites Guest Bloggers

Pardon the brief hiatus the last several days; I took some time out to deliver a fabulous baby girl …

And as any parent would know, I’m still trying to get the hang of things, trying to find and fall into a new routine that will work for the whole family. The past several days have been exhilarating, an exciting period indeed, but in between feeds, nappy changes, and the rest of the house chores, it’s getting a bit challenging to find the time to update this blog.

Thus, I’m opening the floor for guest bloggers. If you’re interested in contributing an entry about functional foods and nutraceuticals — foods with medicinal and healing properties — just drop me an email at ruth(at)b5media.com. I can’t offer any compensation, though, except for the author credits and a link to your webste or blog.

Looking forward to your submissions!
