Two
Savy Snacks
Here is a
couple great snack ideas I found for you and your family from Clean Eating
Magazine!Crispy apple chipsPreheat oven to 275 degrees.Slice
3 small apples any variety, steamed, into 1/8 inch thick rounds, cutting width wise through the
core.Line 2 baking sheets with parchment paper and arrange slices close
together in a single layer, not overlapping. Bake for 2 hours, until apples
are dry and crisp. Enjoy warm or cool! Chile AlmondsA
perfect balance of sweet and spicy!Preheat oven to 350 degrees. In a
medium bowl, whisk 1 egg white until very foamy, about 1 minute. Stir in 2
tsp Sucanat and 2 tsp
chili powder. Add 1 cup roasted unsalted almonds and toss to coat thoroughly.Line a
small baking sheet with parchment paper. With slotted spoon, transfer
almonds to sheet, spreading evenly, discard remaining egg mixture. Bake until
fragrant and toasted, 12-14 minutes, keeping a close eye to prevent
burning.Carefully lift parchment with almonds from sheet and transfer to a
cooling rack. Let cool completely, about 30 minutes. Remove almonds form
parchment. Store in an airtight container for up to one week.

Yummy Orange Chicken Fingers

I found this recipe and thought that it would be sooooo delicious.  It would be great with some other grilled veggies, or over rice or on a salad!  Talk to your parents about helping you out!  Be the chef tonight  :) ---you can easily make the glaze for the chicken!

Keep the good thoughts

Hi Pink Girls!  I had lunch with a good friend today.  It was so good to catch up and see each other.  Don't you love hangin' with your girlfriends...I DO.  :)  Anyway we were talking about all the thoughts that run thru our heads each day and my friend said something really interesting to me!  She said that if we think about a thought for longer than 30 seconds, it sinks into our heart (or subconscience-I believe)

 So you know what that means????

It means that every time you have a good thought that you dwell on, it resonates with in you...it becomes a part of you and you move toward that good thought.  The other side of that is also true---meaning if you focus on a negative thought about you, your friends, or anything else, it becomes part of you and you move toward that negative thought too. 

So, be like a beautiful flower garden--get rid of the weeds and the flowers will grow!!
