Autor admin | 29.11.2009 | Category Uncategorized

The trick is to make healthy choices and options to serve as part of your meal.  It is pretty difficult to prevent  the family form eating too much during Thanksgiving dinner, but there are foods that you can focus on to make it a healthier table.

There are many healthy Thanksgiving recipes and ideas that you can use to prepare your Thanksgiving dinner or any meal of the week.  Healthy cooking and healthy food choices are easy and can be creative.  To learn more about using healthy foods at Thanksgiving and get a free Thanksgiving recipe Ebook from QualityHealth just CLICK HERE.  It is full of great ideas that will make this Thanksgiving special.

Here are five healthy Thanksgiving foods you can enjoy guilt-free this year:

Turkey. If you are looking for a lean cut of meat, turkey is hard to beat. A 3-ounce serving of skinless white meat contains 25 grams of protein, barely 3 grams of fat, and less than 1 gram of saturated fat. Dark meat has more saturated fat than white meat, and eating the skin adds a hefty wallop of these bad fats.

Cranberries. Make your own cranberry sauce this year from whole berries, you’ll get a tastier and less sugary sauce than you can get out of a can. The fruit that provides the base of this traditional side dish deserves to move from holidays to everyday. Cranberries are packed with dozens of different antioxidants.

Sweet potatoes. These un-potatoes — they’re related to the morning glory, not the white potato — are an excellent source of vitamin A, beta carotene, vitamin C, potassium, and fiber. This can be a sweet Thanksgiving treat you can serve yearround.

Pumpkin. We know that everyone loves pumpkin pie, but instead of all that sugar  try a recipe Zesty Pumpkin Custard this year.  Before this orange squash is made into pie, it’s just plain good for you. Pumpkin is low in fat, low in calories, and loaded with potassium, vitamin A, beta carotene, and vitamin C.  Check out the recipes and be creative.

Pecans. Most nuts are great sources of heart-healthy fats. Pecans are no exception. Twenty pecan halves contain about 20 grams of unsaturated fat. Studies from around the globe show that people who routinely eat nuts are less likely to die of heart disease than those who don’t.

So now that we have identified these five Thanksgiving foods that are really very good for you (in moderation), start to consider the other foods that you plan to serve this year and use these FREE recipe ideas CLICK HERE on how to make this Thanksgiving memorable and healthy for you, your family and friends.

Milan, fashion capital of Italy!

Autor admin | 26.11.2009 | Category Travel

Milan is the business, fashion and design capital of Italy, with numerous fashion and trade fairs in the Rho` district of the city (previously held in the Fiera district). It is also Italy’s second largest and richest city. The city is split into 9 zones and full of beautiful architecture, lively nightlife and many museums and exhibitions. As Milan is based in the very north of Italy, Switzerland is only a short distance by train, so worth a day trip if visting the city. The stunning scenery of Lake Como and Lake Lecco is also worth a day trip and again a very short journey by train.

Centro Storico (the historical centre) is full of life, with many things to see and do. In this area you will find the huge Piazza Duomo and Duomo Cathedral, (see above photo) the castle Castello Sforzesco, the world renowned opera house La Scala, and stunning shopping gallery, Galleria Vittorio Emanuele.(see below photo). Also, just a few minutes walk away from Piazza Duomo, are Via della Spiga, and Via Montenapoleone, two of the most famous influential fashion streets possibly in the whole world. These streets are richly concentrated with fashion designers, jewellers and furriers. Every designer imaginable has a shop or two in these streets: Armani, Iceberg, Luois Vitton, Dior, Bottega Veneta, to name just a small handful. When Milan holds fashion trade fairs at numerous times of the year, these streets can be seen full of people from the fashion industry (designers, manufacturers, buyers etc) both day and night, visiting the shops and shop windows observing what new fashions ‘are in’,getting new ideas and looking at the impressive window displays..

Navigli is a lively and fashionable (canal)district (the Navigli Canal runs through Milan), where you will find many bars, cafes, live jazz concerts and antique shops. (photo below of Navigli district by night)

Brera, is a very fashionable district not far from the centre, which used to be known as the ‘artists’ quarter’, and very bohemian in it’s day, inhabited and frequented by poets and artists. It remains a very ‘in’ area today, and is a very exclusive and fashionable district, with boutique shops, ‘sophisticated bohemian’ homeware shops, bookshops, restaurants, and bars. This area is also where you can find the famous Pinacoteca di Brera, one of milan’s most fashionable art galleries, exhibiting works from many well known artists, including Rubens and Canaletto. This art gallery is housed in the 18th century palace Palazzo Brera. This area is also home to the very exclusive fashionable 10 Corso Como, which can be found along equally fashionable Corso Como (many bars and restaurants frequented by the rich and beautiful). 10 Corso Como is a shop, restaurant and bar housed in a beautiful courtyard lit up with candles and fairy lights at night, and definitely somewhere to go if you want to impresss anyone, such as business clients for a meal, or maybe a romantic date….the shop sells and exhibits luxury high fashion designer wear, jewellry, shoes and other various items. It remains open most nights with the bar and restaurants, and you are offered complimentary glasses of champagne while you browse. Brera also houses some of Milan’s famous nightclubs, frequented by models, footballers and the ‘in’ party crowd. Corso Como is an ideal place to go out at night time; you can start early with an aperitivo, move on to a restaurant, then nightclub. It is the perfect location to stay, although may be a little expensive!

St.Ambrogio is the city’s patron saint, and the Basilica of St.Ambrogio in the heart of the city, is one of the oldest churches in Milan. Every year from the 7th to 9th December it’s the patron saint’s day, and there is a lot of celebrating and events to be found throughout the city. There are many various stalls, including food stalls, music etc in Piazza Sant’Ambrogio and the surrounding area. It is the city’s most traditional festival, and a nice way to get you in the festivities spirit, at the start of the Christmas period!

Attracting over 185,000 visitors Clothes Show Live is the 3rd largest consumer event in the UK and the largest fashion and beauty event in the world. The location for this year’s event, as in recent years is The NEC Birmingham where over 350 exhibitors from boutique brands, high street retailers, designer labels and up and coming talent will be showcasing their latest collections.

The visitor trend in previous years has seen the majority being female, particularly those ranging in age from 16-26 yet in recent times there has been a general increase in men becoming more fashion conscious and interested in personal grooming. In an effort to address this trend, Clothes Show Live have introduced more male brands into the show and at the Show in December, a Guys and Dolls Music Stage is planned which will offer men an opportunity to catch a glimpse of the latest menswear collections through an entertaining dance and catwalk show.

After an exhausting day shopping you will have earned a well deserved drink and their will be a number of themed bars located around the Show where you can kick off your shoes, sip a cocktail and admire your valuable purchases. If a cocktail isn’t your thing then you might want to consider visiting the Wellbeing Zone, a place where you can relax and enjoy rejuvenating, tempting treatments and get advice from health and fitness experts.

The Clothes Show Live is on at the Birmingham NEC from 5-10 December 2008 although tickets are not on sale yet.

Travelling to The NEC is easy by road or rail.
