I’m a fairly recent beet fan; however, I can’t say I’ve made much time to cook with them. Beets always seem like such a pain in the butt to prepare and cook, don’t they? The peeling, the red stains, the roots, the dirt – I used to pass them by for easier-to-prepare vegetables, even though I have grown to love the taste of cooked beets.

We hope you went out and bought your exercise ball. James puts it, and you, to work with this core-strengthening activity

Today you’re going to use your exercise ball to help further improve your core. I want you to practice sitting on it. You can do this while at the computer, watching TV, eating or playing cards. Once you’ve mastered your balance try rolling back and forth and side to side on it instead of just sitting. Keep a slight inward curve to your low back during this process and sit up straight.

Who says we should only eat bland-looking food during the colder months? Sometimes a bright pop of colour is just what the doctor ordered.
