Whole grains may curb belly fat

and inflammation! Well, this is good news as per the story below. We haven't had much trouble switching to whole grains the past few years and they seem to be making them more delicous and nutritious than ever, with all kinds of grains.

My sister had a great birthday party for her teenage daughter recently. This lady she knows is a professional makeup artist but she opened her own soap making shop with a party room upstairs. She sells all kinds of soaps, lotions, makeup, cards, jewelry and other things she likes. Anyway, my sister and the lady came up with this idea for a teen party. She normally does soap making with little kids. She gave the girls mud masks, exfoliating cream, then she made all girls up! Her daughter loved her fake eyelashes. The woman really tried to stress that they don't need a lot of makeup to look pretty, just very light colors and light lip gloss. I wish we had something like that in my neck of the woods that didn't cost the earth.

We've done so much math review with K this weekend, his brain must be bursting. He's been co-operative and receptive and I think he's learned a lot. He and M are off to a Raptors basketball game momentarily, so that will be a good break for us all. He's also started practicing for his RCM grade 5 level piano practical exam that we hope to schedule in the late summer. L just started her advanced level tennis lessons and loves the challenge.

Hope to catch some of the Oscars tonight.
