FollowMy Daily 10K Steps
Posted on
Health experts often recommend aiming for 10,000 steps a day to stay healthy and support longevity. I clock up at least 10K steps most days since I got my first smart watch (a Fitbit) 8 years ago. Not too shabby for a soon-to-be 54-year-old auntie, eh? 😆💪🏻 But lately, the haze has been so bad…

Why Nuts Became My Go-To Snack
Posted on
For the longest time, nuts have always been my go-to snack. They’re nutritious, filling, relatively low in carbs and, when eaten in reasonable portions, generally have much less impact on blood sugar than the usual sugary or highly processed snacks. Walnuts are rich in omega-3 fats and are great for heart and brain health. Almonds…
