Hot Fitness Tip

     

A regular walking or jogging program can benefit you by decreasing your blood pressure, resting heart rate, and cholesterol, while increasing your metabolic rate and ability to burn fat. Wind, snow, and cold needn’t slow you down if you dress appropriately with layers to keep you warm and reflective clothing to keep you visible on dark days. Be sure to warm up your muscles first, since cold temperatures make your body less flexible and more prone to injuries. Wear shoes with deep traction to prevent slipping on wet or icy roads. Finally, find yourself a workout buddy who’ll help keep you motivated—it’s a lot easier to roll out into the cold when you have a committed friend waiting.
  


Words of Inspiration

     

Enjoy the Present

Forget the time splits, the results, the expectations and just go and do what you know how to do. Race your bike, was rightfully said by a coach to an athlete.

Today, as you look back at your successes and perceived failures, take the kernels of knowledge, smile at the memories and move on. Plan your 2014, look for moments that makes your arms tingle with excitement and intimidate you at least a little bit.

As you set goals and evaluate, take a little time here and there to embrace Buddha’s advice and enjoy riding in the present moment.

"Do not dwell in the past, do not dream of the future, concentrate the mind on the present moment." — Buddha
 

 


Success Quote

   

"This is my wish for you: peace of mind, prosperity through the year, happiness that multiplies, health for you and yours, fun around every corner, energy to chase your dreams, joy to fill your holidays!"

D.M. Dellinger





 


















Healthy Recipe

     

Red Berry Pudding with Cream

Makes:  4 servings

Nutritional Information:
Per Serving

Calories: 206 Kcal, Fat: 3 g, Carbohydrate: 45 g, Protein: 2 g, Fiber: 6 g, Sodium: 9 mg. .


Ingredients:

  • 1 (10-oz) bag frozen raspberries, defrosted, at room temperature

  • 1 (16-oz) bag frozen strawberries, defrosted, at room temperature

  • 2½ Tbsp. cornstarch

  • 1/3 cup sugar, plus 2 teaspoons, divided

  • 2 Tbsp. sliced almonds, optional, for garnish

  • 1/4 cup light cream, chilled


Directions:

  • Set sieve over mixing bowl. Pour defrosted fruits and their juices into strainer. Dip out 3 tablespoons of combined juices and put in small bowl. Whisk cornstarch into berry juice mixture until smooth. Set mixture aside.

  • Using a wooden spoon, push defrosted berries through strainer. Occasionally scrape pureed fruit on outside of strainer into bowl using a flexible spatula. When mashed pulp clings in a ball inside strainer, discard it. Measure pureed fruit and juices (there will be about 2 cups) and pour into heavy, medium stainless steel or other non-reactive saucepan. Add cornstarch mixture and 1/3 cup sugar to pot and stir to combine.
    Set pot over medium-high heat and cook, whisking frequently, until berry mixture thickens and looks glossy, about 5 minutes in total, taking care not to let it boil.

  • Divide hot pudding among 4 small dessert dishes rinsed in cold water and drained but not dried. Sprinkle 1/2 teaspoon of remaining sugar over top of each serving to prevent a skin from forming. Or, pour pudding into one large serving bowl and sprinkle with 2 teaspoons sugar. Let pudding sit until it is room temperature. Cover and refrigerate to chill. This dessert keeps, covered in refrigerator, for up to 3 days.

  • To serve, sprinkle sliced almonds over top of pudding, if using. Spoon 1 tablespoon of cream over each serving, or pour cream into a small pitcher and pass it separately.
