Forever Young…..
I want to be forever young….
This weekend I will be celebrating another birthday and so blessed to be doing so. Age…why are so many people afraid of aging? I so strongly believe it is only a number and for me turning 42… well I say bring it!
I can honestly tell you I am in better shape and feel so much better in my own skin then when I was 24. I can also out run my 24 self! I attribute the way I feel to many things. Experience, knowledge, all the wonderful things growing older gives us. However one big contributor is my health & fitness level. Yes, I am what I eat and the way I feel and look is due to that. You know I have said it before, now I will say it again. Food isn’t only fuel to keep us full & our taste buds satisfied, it is also the foundation for EVERYTHING! The way we look, feel, think, act. It enables our moods, our health, our physical being, our pant size
Age is only a number, however its up to YOU what you will do with that number! Forever Young……
Have a wonderful day! Make it great….Mind, Body, & Soul.
Besos y Abrazos…xoxo ”….Barbara por Atras, Barbara por Adelante, y Siempre Barbara por Adentro!”
PS Happy Birthday to Me! xoxoxoxoxo………

Thank you Ragweed!!
I can’t take it and its only September! My eyes are itchy & teary and I can’t stop sneezing! Its allergy season and this really stinks!! No allergy pill is working!! NADA!!
More than 35 million Americans are effected by seasonal allergies. For us in the North East we have one big culprit to blame…..RAGWEED!! The pollen released from ragweed blooms between mid-August to October and this year its just awful!! Nothing is helping me so I did what any proactive person would do….I Googled & came across a site for AAAI ~NAB
Below are some tips & suggestions provided by the American Academy of Allergy, Asthma, and Immunology National Allergy Bureu~ AAAI ~ NAB
- Use an air conditioner and a dehumidifier to keep air clean, cool and dry.
- Keep the windows closed in your home and car.
- Avoid raking leaves and mowing.
- If avoiding the outdoors is impossible, shoes and clothing worn outside should remain outdoors or be washed immediately in hot water.
- Shower after spending extended periods of time outdoors. This will remove built up pollen from skin and hair.
- Use large, waxy flowers like lilies and tulips to decorate your home. Their pollen is too heavy and sticky to enter the air and cause an allergic reaction.
- Do not hang clothing or sheets outside to dry. They will collect pollen and mold.
- Know the current pollen and mold counts in your area by calling 800-9-POLLEN or by visiting the NAB’s Web site http://www.aaaai.org/global/nab-pollen-counts.aspx
Hope this works! If not there are going to be some pretty nasty people around ’til October…yours truly included!

Grab Your Wave!
Back from vacation! Had a fabulous time with the family at beautiful Punta Cana! Made great memories and even checked off some items on my bucket list! What better way than to enjoy the beach in the early morning than by going on a bare foot run with my all grown up nephew! As I ran through the water thoughts of my dad and Chariots of Fire ran through my mind. Exhilarated I looked at my side, running in sinc with my Godson, the first grandson, my sisters first born, the first boy to enter the Trujillo clan The adrenalin was so great I could have kept running forever! It didn’t stop there. For sometime now I’ve been wanting to learn how to surf. I guess my obsession with Gidget & Moondoggie was taking its toll When I read an article not too long ago about a woman who learned how to surf at age 40 on the Jersey Shore I became determined! Alex & I were going to take lessons last year but that fell through. When we learned of an opportunity to learn to surf in Punta Cana we jumped at it! We signed up with the Macao Surf Camp at once. I never thought you could actually surf in the Caribbean water, but you can! The waves are great for beginners like me. The beach was GORGEOUS, the instructors were GREAT, & I had an AWESOME workout in the process! I had the time of my life with my two boys….Alex & Max I did it! I caught a wave! One of the most amazing feelings I have ever felt! I felt as if I was actually standing on water! All I remember is saying to myself, “feel that B, feel…..” as I rode the wave I plan on taking more lessons here in NJ, and plan to make it out West someday. Its never too late to follow your dreams…I am a huge believer of that. With thoughts of Malibu & Hawaii running through my mind, I say kawabunga baby! I’ll see you soon Big Kahuna
Today I say…Never say Never! Make it yours, Make it Great! Enjoy the Journey & Grab your wave!
Besos y Abrazos…xoxo ”…..Barbara por Atras, Barbara por Alante, y Siempre Barbara por Adentro!”
PS Want to learn to surf while in Punta Cana? I highly recommend Macao Surf Camp Check out their FB page http://www.facebook.com/pages/Macao-Surf-Camp/152438071468639

Yummy Granola!
One of the many great things I’ve been doing since my collaboration with the National Honey Board is whipping up yummies in the kitchen! My family has been loving every aroma and delish concoction I’ve been making! One of my fav’s is my healthy granola. Granola is one of those great foods that are totally versatile. You can have it alone as a snack, on yogurt, with skim milk, even on ice cream. A great healthy treat for the whole family! However, like many things out there, some store bought granola are loaded with preservatives and added un-neccessary sugars. Precisely why my granola is so amazing! Its all natural with a touch of my fav ALL NATURAL sweetner~ Pure Honey! Oh, and did I mention its super easy & quick to make? Yes indeed….my kind of dishes. Quick, easy, and naturally delicious! Buen aprovecho!
Healthy Granola~
Ingredients:
- 4 cups of Rolled Oats
- 1 cup sliced Almonds
- 1 cup raw Sunflower seeds
- ¼ Flax seeds
- 1/3 cup Canola Oil
- ½ cup Honey
- 1 tsp Vanilla extract
- 1 tbsp ground Cinnamon
- ½ cup sweetened Dried cranberries
Directions:
- Preheat oven to 300 degrees F
- In a large bowl, stir oats, nuts, & sunflower seeds. In a separate bowl mix oil, honey, vanilla extract, & cinnamon. Add to the oat, nut, & seed mixture and mix well.
- Spread mixture onto two ungreased baking sheets.
- Bake in oven for 10 minutes, remove & stir. Return to the oven and bake until granola mixture is golden brown. This should take about 10 more minutes. Once golden remove from the oven and let cool completely.
- Once completely cooled mix in the sweetened dried cranberries.
- Serve & Enjoy!
While waiting for the granola to cook utilize that time to move! Take a look at my week 5 exercise tip The Curtsey Lungs~ Desplante con genuflexion with the National Honey Board Miel Pura
Have a Honeylicious One!
