Gratitude in relation to health

"It is essential for your health to find a few things every day that you really appreciate. You can make it mundane things: your shoes, the face of a good friend, a clean bathroom in a gas station. The more you appreciate, the more good things will be attracted into your life, including good health!"

Persimmon: the *new apple*?

1 persimmon a day will keep the doctor away.

Persimmon is the 'new apple.'

I love fruits, all fruits.
There are a few I take bias toward.
One of them is the ancient Japanese treasure: Persimmon. This delicious fruit is not only full of unique flavor, but rich in antioxidants, vitamins and twice the fiber of the same size apple. Check out the nutritional facts below (all courtesy of calorieking.com):



***for added antioxidant benefits, an amazing indulgence tip: dip slices of persimmons in melted dark chocolate....mmmmm

P.S. It is OK to lick the plate after :)
P.S. 2 It is also OK to share with someone special :)

S P E C I A L ANNOUNCEMENT !!!!

I m excited to announce that starting tomorrow, March 19th, 2009, I am launching a special short segment on my BLOG site http://monikakovacs.blogspot.com titled:

* Monika Minutes*

This is planned to be a short, "my-fav's-of-the-day' style, informative tad. Featuring anything from fitness, nutrition, photography, to lifestyle, fashion ... a minute in my life, the gym etc. Anything I find impossible not to share with you my friends. I am planning to make this into a video segment down the road. Get ready to smile and laugh along the way with me; guaranteed entertainment value. As soon as I get my hands on a simple-to-use camcorder type of something ...

I welcome suggestions and questions. I am also welcoming sponsors who are interested in introducing their products to my audience, and gain great exposure as I go.

Since this is a brand new little project, and I am responsible for it myself, bare with me initially; should there be glitches at the start.

Make sure to check the new segment out by subscribing through the link found at the bottom of the page.

Love,
Monika
