Tis the Season to increase your Antioxidants

Fresh cranberries are now in season between October and December, just in time for the holidays!

One serving of fresh cranberries (1/2 cup) is low in calories and full of vitamin C and fiber and also a good source of vitamin K.
Cranberries have a great deal of health benefits:
• helps protect the urinary tract from infections
• fights viral infections
• increases the good cholesterol
• improves vascular function high antioxidant properties help fight cancer

Now that you know how great cranberries are for your family’s diet, here is some guidelines on buying fresh cranberries:
• Choose firm, ripe cranberries
• Look for cranberries that are deep red color
• Remember, fresh has more antioxidants than the dried cranberries or bottled cranberry drinks
• Fresh cranberries can be stored in the refrigerator for several months. Before storing, discard any soft, discolored, pitted or shriveled fruits.
• Once frozen, cranberries may be kept for several years. To freeze, spread fresh cranberries out on a cookie sheet and place in the freezer. In a couple of hours, the fully frozen berries will be ready to transfer to a freezer bag. Don’t forget to date the bag before returning to the freezer.
• Once thawed, frozen berries will be quite soft and should be used immediately.

Enjoy some seasonally fresh cranberries as part of your holiday season!

Yours in best health,

Kids going out for Halloween in snow!

Good morning,

"Welcome to my new blog "Little Chefs Cooking Up Some Fun!" I am starting to blog about my adventures of owning my own New small business. My other Full Time job is Mom to two beautiful girls!
I guess I am what is called a Mompreneur!

I hope to get a website going but I will use my blogging to post information as well as local events.
I am up for the challenge as I think Little Chefs needs web presence. I would like to let people know about the parties, lessons and upcoming events. I am planning a Holiday Gingerbread House making class for kids for December! More details on locations and dates to follow.

Yesterday was an odd day as it was cold and ended up snowing on and off throughout the day. My girls went to school with Fall jackets + hats + gloves but could have had their winter coats!
Can anyone remember having snow or extreme cold weather for trick or treating?
Sent me a comment on this.

Yours in good health,
Lori
