Happy Birthday ELA!

It's my lovely wife's birthday today, head on over to ELA and wish her a happy birthday!

Needless to say I'm spoiling her today with some of her favorite foods before we fly to Melbourne tonight.

Avocado on toast, with salt, pepper and a squeeze of lemon juice, home made Limeonade and Chai tea... Possibly one of the simplest yet best breakfasts possible.

Disagree? Then let me know...

Fat vs. Carbs

This is the first of probably many posts about fat and carbohydrates...

Fats have gotten a pretty bad wrap since about the 40s (and lets face it - probably a lot earlier than that too). It's been blamed for all sorts of things like heart conditions, blood pressure, strokes, obesity and a plethora of other health conditions... but is it really as bad as they say it is? Saturated fats are associated with increasing the cholesterol levels, the above mentioned diseases and diabetes... so if we already know all this why bother repeating it?

Because perhaps, just perhaps we've got it wrong...
