Some of you cited distance or illness as reasons for a quiet holiday season. For others, this time of year evokes sad memories or highlights the loss of friends or family. On a cheerier note, many of you shared fond memories of holiday gatherings from your childhood, describing joyous family rituals and the closeness and camaraderie that often accompany holiday celebrations. Whether you spent this holiday season alone, with a few friends or family members, or in a big, raucous celebration, we wish you all a Happy New Year and a season of good health and happiness in the months to come!

The “What’s for Dinner?”
If you’ve ever tried eating better, you know it’s not exactly easy. From buying expensive organic ingredients and oils to prepping, cooking, plating, and tracking, so much goes into a high-quality healthy meal that it can all be a little overwhelming – unless you have Forkful.
