Yesterday, I was given a lot of items. I put them all together and made a salad. Here's the recipe:
Spinach
Kale
Cabbage - shredded white and red
Grape tomatoes
Carrots
Celery
Cauliflower
Yellow raisins
Pistachio nuts (unsalted)
Raw Sunflower seeds
Raw almonds
Raw walnuts
Vary amounts according to your own taste.
Wash all the veggies in Fruit and Vegetable Rinse. Rinse off the rinse with distilled water.
I use plastic containers to put the salad into. I had enough yesterday to make 6 large servings.
Put the spinach in, then the kale, then the cabbage.
Dice the carrots and celery and put on top.
Cut cauliflower in small florets and put on top.
Put raisins, shelled pistachio nuts, sunflower seeds, almonds and walnuts into small container and put on top of the salad in one corner.
When serving, choose your favorite salad dressing.

I owned a State Approved K-6 for over 20 years and when it closed, I was devastated. However, I decided to make lemonade out of lemons and so I thought: I went to school for 40 years (one class at a time) and I have a PhD, I'll just look for a better job.
And, I did.....look that is, the "finding" part eluded me. I was 60 years old, never got sick and could outwork almost anyone half my age but, as I was looking for a job, it was NOT looking for me!
In the first two years after my school's closure, I applied for over 450 jobs (everything from Starbucks, to Admin Assistant to jewelry sales) and had no luck.
Finally a friend asked why I was counting the jobs and I realized I was focusing on what was NOT happening instead of what might happen so I quit counting, but not applying.
In order to survive, I sold my house and lived off the proceeds while I continued applying. I lived extremely frugally because I knew that the money would not last forever.
Over the years, I have continued to live frugally and apply for jobs. However, there truly is ageism in America today and I have been unsuccessful in getting a "real" job.
What I have been successful at is cobbling together a life by working at my many part time jobs! Currently, I have 2 jobs each day (subbing in the Auburn School District and tutoring at Sylvan Learning Centers). And I do other jobs occasionally such as Real Estate Broker, Author, and Editor.
Because I am a Health Coach, my passion is helping people be healthier.
Over the years, I've learned much about how to be healthy even if I wasn't wealthy so I decided to share my expertise with you! I will bring you tips, recipes, and many ideas on how to choose a healthy lifestyle, even if you are eating out of the local Food Bank and/or don't have much money to pay for gym memberships!
