Disappear much?

Wow, so the rest of 2012 kind of whipped by, didn't it?  Whoops.  That'll happen when one is in school, volunteers, has 5 jobs (yep, count 'em.  FIVE.) and has a life outside of the internet :)

But hey!  I'm back!

With much encouraging and nudging from my sister (whose adventures you can read about here), I came back to dust off the blog and post something every once in a while.  I figured that, pfft, no one reads my blog, my veggie of the month posts, my recipes, etc etc etc.  But when I logged in today and saw that despite two months of inactivity, I'd still had a fair number of hits in the last couple of weeks, including many international visitors (so not just family and friends), I figured that I ought to put up something worthwhile.  Perhaps those people wandered in here by accident, or just needed to know what to do with beets, but I might as well give you something fun to do while you're visiting anyway!

To keep my sister off my back my blog running, I'm going to try to post at least once a month.  Even if its just a veggie of the month, I will try to get something up here.


I'm also opening it up to suggestions.  If you have a nutrition topic in mind that you've always wanted to know, post a comment, and I'll do what I can!  After all, that's what all my years of school were for :)  Need ideas?  How about...

• What's up with fruit?  Is it bad for me because it has sugar?
• What the deal with diabetes?  Type 1, 2, insulin, no insulin, huh?
• How do I lose weight, and actually keep it off?
• I'm exercising like crazy, but still gaining weight! Wtf!
• My kids hate vegetables, even in your delicious veggie of the month recipes.  What do I do?
• Do I need to drink protein shakes/eat protein bars/take supplements/etc?
• I hate grocery shopping, help!
• Do you have a recipe for ___________? 

Stay tuned for your January veggie of the month!
