Cadbury Eggs and Chocolate Bunnies

Easter or any holiday is a fantastic time to be with family. My husband and I love being grandparents.  Cadbury eggs, chocolate bunnies, and black jelly beans, the tastes of Easter are so tempting. Our grandchildren love the Easter egg hunt that they go to each year. What could be more fun for a child than free candy!

But what is a poor grama to do......share in the candy. Yummy, yummy is chocolate in the tummy. Fortunately for my diet I was good and had very little candy. Today I was back to my routine which includes walking. Why are so many delicious things fattening? My dear husband reminded me that broccoli, carrots, and spinach are not fattening. I told him that is great for the Bunnies but this gal needs her chocolate.  I have found a chocolate, sugar free, tastes great and helps with weight. WOW am I a lucky gal.

Did You Eat Your Live Frog Today

Mark Twain once said that we should all eat a live frog each day. Once we have done that we have experienced the most awful thing that will happen to us that day. My "live frog" was calling people on the phone. I have learned to tackle my "frog" early in the day. The result is that I feel renewed and positive about what I do. Also an added bonus is that I have begun to enjoy calling people.

What is your " live frog"?

We must not allow the clock and the calendar to blind us to the fact that each moment of life is a miracle and a mystery.
