Whole Foods Market Westford Store Opening + Giveaway

Image
Hi, friends! Recently, I had the pleasure of touring the new  Whole Foods Market in Westford, Massachusetts. (I grew up in the town next door, so I am especially excited to have a Whole Foods Market so close when we visit family! As a way to help promote the grand opening, Whole Foods Market invited a small group of bloggers to view the store prior to opening. Pictured below: Sarah , me, Lexi , and Sarah . Upon entering the store, I saw the wide-open, brightly-colored produce department. As you can see in the photo below, not all of the shelves were stocked yet, but only because the store wanted everything to be as fresh as possible for the opening. To celebrate the grand opening, the store has a bunch of specials and sales for the next few weeks, so if you’re local, be sure to keep your eyes peeled. To the left of the produce department is the Fresh Juice & Smoothie Bar with all sorts of nutritious and delicious offerings, many of which include local ingredients. A nu

How Accurate Is Your Fitness Tracker?

Image
Wearable fitness trackers — including Fitbit and Jawbone devices — are wildly popular ways to keep a tally of all the daily activities you do. They count steps and calories, measure heart rate and, in some cases, monitor things like how much and how well you sleep. But before you live and die by those numbers on your device, you might want to consider something: How accurate is all that information anyway? According to a new study by researchers at Ball State University’s Human Performance Lab, the answer is they are both very accurate and wildly inaccurate — depending on what they’re measuring. When it comes to counting steps, these trackers do a great job, as long as those steps are taken while walking or running. “But they all tended to underestimate the amount of activity subjects got while doing household chores like sweeping, cleaning and doing laundry,” said Alex Montoye, a clinical exercise physiology professor at Ball State University. The researchers watched subjects perfo

We have had SO MUCH RAIN in May. Very, very good for sod. Very, very bad for active little boys! We did lots of art projects and made this fun fort together one afternoon. It was two stories and could fit grown-ups too! Lucky me, I had not one but  two empty Wild Friends jars to pour oats into last week! This Chocolate Almond Butter one was filled with overnight oats and raspberries. And this one was the end of a jar of Classic Creamy Peanut Butter filled with hot oatmeal (cooled down some with Greek yogurt). Some days it’s nice just to have nut butter toast and banana. No cooking. Just eating. Chia seed sprinkles! For lunch I had a big ole kale salad, served in the mixing bowl for efficiency! I believe this had mushrooms, sweet potatoes and some smoked trout mixed in. Another day I had leftover Cook Smarts salad, which was even better the next day! I loved the crumbled pita chips on this salad. Last on the lunch list was a plate of crispy tofu sticks – recipe is coming
