Remember Rainbow Brite, I use to love her. I loved her multi-colored outfit and her magical world. She kind of faded away when I was a teenager. Now she is back, so you can introduce her to your children.

you can visit Rainbow Brite online at www.rainbowbrite.com, there you can view 4 new Rainbow Brite animated mini episodes. Rainbow bright joins her two friends Moonglow and Tickled Pink, and their companions(horses): Starlite, Shimmer, Sunriser on their adventures through Rainbow Land.

I got to share with my children the new Rainbow Brite CD. This cd contains games, puzzles, Rainbow Brite theme song and so much more.

This cd is so much fun for little girls, my daughters loved Rainbow Land and all the bright colors. I can’t wait to show them the doll collection.

Natonal Salt Reduction Initiative and Heart Health Month

- brandy3

February is heart health month. It’s very important to me to have a healthy heart, heart disease runs in my family. Both my parents had stints put in, and my grandmother passed from having a bad heart.

Reducing salt and sodium intake is a start. Here are ten tips

  1. Choose fresh, unprocessed or fresh, frozen foods
  2. Read food labels for sodium content
  3. Choose foods with less than 200mg of sodium per serving
  4. Consume pre-prepared foods that are “low in sodium” or “no added sodium”
  5. Limit processed foods such as canned or dried soups, canned vegetables, frozen dinners, “instant” foods and flavored rice/pasta packages
  6. Use less sodium at the table and in cooking
  7. Use no-sodium or low-sodium seasonings
  8. Flavor food with lemon juice, fresh garlic, spices, herbs and flavored vinegar
  9. Use only small amounts of condiments, like pickles, sauces, olives, etc.
  10. Ask for less salt or sodium to be added to your food when eating in restaurants

Mrs. Dash has salt free seasoning blends and marinades.

Salt free seasoning Blends-There are 15 Mrs. Dash slat free seasoning blends including the new Fiesta Lime and Carribean Citrus. Each has 14 natural herbs and spices, so you can add bold robust flavor to any dish.

   

Mrs. Dash marinades-Mrs. dash 10 minute marinades are the first fast acting sauces that are salt free, with no MSG. These to are made with 14 natural herbs and spices,  and a touch of real fruit essence. There are 4 varietys to choose from

They also have Grilling blends and spicy teryaki and garlic lime blends.

**** I was able to try out some of the new seasoning blends. I made Fiesta Lime Tacos, and they turned out very good. It was a little more dry then using a taco seasoning pack like i usually do, but still was very good. A bit spicy.

Retail:$3.09 for seasonings and marinades
