Be More Like Robert Pattison!
Robert Pattison one of the stars of The Twilight series revealed
on Ellen (the talk show) that he adopted a dog.
What's so unusual about that?
Well, it's not that unusual, given Mr. Pattisons' penchant for
saving money and his love of pets and if you love pets like Mr Pattison,
you can also boost your health. How?
Living with a pet can ease depression, which negatively affects heart rhythms,
cholesterol levels and blood pressure. And a pet from a pet store or a shelter
means you're less likely to suffer from a heart attack and if you do suffer
from one, you're five times more likely to recover and live a long life
thanks to the pet.
So, if you already love Robert Pattison, this news about his kindness to pets
will only help you love him even more.
And one more thing... Please make his movie No.1 this weekend,
the more money the movie makes, the more Mr. Pattison makes
and that means he may adopt another dog.
Good Luck!

And lastly, put in the softer vegetables and cook for another 5 to 8 mins.
Poke the vegetables with a fork to check their tenderness.

romano cheese. Or add some cooked tomato sauce, or put some
of the vegetables over brown rice and add some low-sodium soy sauce.

Larry The Cable Guys' Favorite Food!
Larry The Cable Guy, is an unapologetic lover of America,
he loves the national anthem, football, barbecue, westerns,
the military and beef jerky.
Okay, we're not sure about beef jerky, but it (the beef jerky)
is a part of Americana, and if you thought there weren't any benefits
of eating beef jerky, you were wrong.
A beef jerky or two can help you get over the afternoon blahs that plague
a lot of us. It's a concentrated source of pure protein, and that protein
can increase the energy neurotransmitters known as dopamine and
norepinephrine.
So, if you thought that gas station pastry, bag of chips or candy bar
would give you a boost of energy, you were wrong, it's the beef or turkey
jerky located on the counter that's the real energy booster.
And one more tip: if you're watching your salt intake, then you may have to
skip the Slim-Jim.
Good Luck!

Paula Deen's Favorite Vegetable!
Paula Deen is on a quest, a quest to get healthy.
If you seen Ms. Deen lately you're well aware of her 35 lb.
weight loss. One of the foods that Ms. Deen loves to cook and eat are
sweet potatoes, and if you too, like the orange tubers, you're in luck.
Look below for some of the benefits of the sweet potato and then,
copy the recipe for a sweet potato casserole, made by the incomparable
Paula Deen.
The benefits of sweet potatoes:
a) Sidestep Heart Attacks-
S. P's are loaded with antioxidants that lower your risk of heart attacks
by a whopping 55%. Perhaps someone can pass this tip onto Rosie O'Donnell.
Important tip: make sure to leave out all the sugar, eggs, milk and the pie crust,
or they (S. P's) won't work.
b) Beautiful Skin-
For many women, a trip to get Botox or spending hundreds on creams and
potions and you still look the same. What may work and won't cost a small fortune?
Sweet potatotes and other foods that contain vitamin A. Vitamin A is rarely mentioned,
but it's the missing link for those seeking more youthful and supple skin.
Other Vit. A rich foods...Butternut squash, pumpkin, carrots, acorn squash and yams.
c) Boost Energy-
Thanks to the amino acids and minerals in sweet potatoes, they help boost energy
and moods.
