Cauliflower Steaming On Such A Winter's Day - 10 / 10 thread

[FrannyandZooey]

For anyone who wants a boost to their general health. The suggested goals are:

EAT 10 PORTIONS OF FRUIT AND VEGETABLES EVERY DAY - if you don't usually eat much fruit and veg I would build up gradually or you could upset your digestion.

DO (AT LEAST) 10 MINUTES OF EXERCISE EVERY DAY - can be yoga, stretching or something more energetic. The plan is that the idea of doing 10 minutes is not too daunting, and having started you may well find you want to do more.

There are no restrictions on what you eat so long as you get your 10 fruit and veg as well. The focus is not on weight loss but on improving our energy levels and hopefully our general mood and well-being. Sign up below and post here to tell us how you're getting on and how you are feeling.

Basic guidance on what constitutes a portion of fruit and veg here and you can download more detailed information by following the link at the very bottom of the page

oops sorry took me ages to press send due to dd2 and dp having an argument about blue paint ignore me.

lumme the soundtrack looks superb but I can't get the trailer to work

is it suitable for taking a 14 y o to? and when it is out please?

I am enjoying the music on that trailer very much. It looks the sort of film I would olike but I suspect DH will dismiss it for not having enough explosions in it

I did persuade him to watch American beauty with me the other night, which to his chagrin, he liked..

agh sit down everyone I have some stunning news!

ds2 ate 2 peices of red cabbage for the first time ever he deigned to try it. AND....

has aksed if he can some more tomorrow night!

[sits down in amazement] Way to go ds2.

Get me, with the way to gos.

I have just looked it is out Feb 1st. Oh it's a lovely film, you must all go and see, especially Franny.

sorry for terrible typibng these days.
After a lifetime of pedantry, I cannot touch type any more and I cannot be bothered to check.

Actusally, I probably shared that red cabbage snippet with the wrong audience....Let me explain. both my boys are neo-phobic especially when it comes to trying new foods. So it really is a huge deal!

Yay - well done DS2. I love red cabbage

well done ds2 very brave boy.

well we had only been tehere about 5 minutes when someone flashhed their lights at us

so got slightly paranoid then lol

oh AND

Greeny has finally got off her shiftless jangly bottom and sorted out coming to stay, hoorah! It is only a few weeks away. Initially she managed to book herself into the local benefits dumping ground B+B, which was an inspired move even for her, but now she has found a tweely named self catering place round the corner and I can't wait to see her mad old face again
