Looking for ways to make 2013 healthier for your family? Granted, the world doesn’t make it easy, with endless messages about convenient, cheap foods full of sugar, rancid fats, and salt … but when you look around you and see where that has gotten the “average American,” you want something better for your family, right?

Check out this great article on Family Food Goals, by Stacy Whitman from the blog School Bites: One Mom’s Crusade for Better Nourished Kids at School (and at Home!). Start with one change, and aim to make them all within the next few months.

Pajama Party at Nana’s (in Chicago)! Great food and great fun!

Love that the cool restaurant Nana’s (in Chicago – wish it were in Atlanta!) is hosting a Pajama Brunch on New Year’s! Awesome idea!

How they describe the restaurant: “Nana is a family-owned, organic restaurant offering choices for those who are not only passionate about great tasting food, but who are also passionate about where their food comes from. We source the finest of organic ingredients from farmers, producers and vendors who meet and maintain USDA National Organic Program standards.”

We need MORE RESTAURANTS LIKE THIS!

Deepak Chopra on “A Freer Way to Think”

Found this great article on mastering your own mind … moving beyond habitual thoughts and unconscious actions (as Chopra says, “distractions are a multi-billion-dollar business”), to deliberate focus on higher goals. Thought you might love it, too.

NOTE: Why isn’t this post about food? Because life is more than food … and this blog will be, too, from time to time. Thanks for indulging me!
