PSA: Pistachios

Hi Everyone, I received the below email so I wanted to share it with you all:

We wanted to let you know that not all pistachios have been affected and that a new site, PistachioRecall.org, the result of a collaboration between the FDA and California growers/processors, is now available. The site lists specific safe pistachio products and brands not affected by the recall.

To see the FDA announcement, click on this link or go directly to the FDA website.

Also, on a lighter note, check out Bobbi’s awesome Danskin giveaway!

Holy Week

Where has the time gone?  I cannot believe that this is the start of Holy Week and that Easter is right around the corner!  How exciting!! Do you all do something special to prepare for Easter Sunday during this week?

For me, I’m focused on doing the following:

  • Read two chapters at least each day of the Bible (within the four Gospels)
  • Practice random acts of kindness
  • Trying not to complain about anything
  • When things get frazzled, stay calm by realizing how truly blessed I am

Do you have any other suggestions for me?  I really liked Bobbi’s post this morning.

How are you all celebrating Easter?  For us, we are celebrating at church first and then we are going to my parents’ house for dinner.  My mom is making the traditional ham, but I think I’m going to bring a fun & healthy side dish, but not sure what yet.  Of course, I will let you all know what it is when I decide :)
