I have never posted a video of this length before. I believe in Jamie Oliver's Food Revolution. I know that when my twin sons were babies I was vigilant about feeding them what was best as suggested by the doctor. Then when school started it was more about sending them off with a pop tart or sugary cereal before school. French Fries and "Junk" was all too often the diet of the day. My way of trying to introduce a better love of vegetables was the dreaded "Vegetable Week". A week of vegetarian type meals culminating in getting to pick out your own steak on Friday. Ludicrous!

My intentions may have been well founded but my approach way off. Children and adults need to eat a good breakfast - not start their engines with a sugary jolt. I know this. Like everyone else I have heard the battle cry, "Breakfast is the most important meal of the day". Hearing, even knowing they are right didn't make the doing done. Now I make a more concentrated effort to eat healthier. I learned from my dear friend Nancy that meals with lots of color can make a positive difference. She was/is absolutely right. I now follow her suggestion that I incorporate at least 5 different colors into my diet a day.

My son Jim and his wife Carol are featured towards the end of this video. They are standing to the right of the tent where Jamie is talking. Jim has a beard and shakes his head. Carol has curly hair and is standing in front of him. I am posting this video not to show them off (that is a bonus) but because Jamie's message is important. I wish you a healthy happy life.
