January has been an interesting month, most of it revolving around my new healthy eating regime. At the beginning of the month I added juicing and organic vegetables to my diet and eliminated all fried foods, meat, starches and sugars. I'm down twenty pounds and I feel absolutely amazing. As part of my transition I've been trying to figure out how to steer my family down this road as well, most especially since Son-shine, the new daughter-in-law and my beautiful grandbaby will soon be moving in with me. I want to steer my munchkin in a very healthy direction so learning everything I can about juicing for children is a priority. Towards that I thought I'd share one of my very favorite juices for kids. As, well, the book below is one I highly recommend.
Drinking their veggies is nothing but good!
