The last few months have undoubtedly changed the dynamics within every family structure around the world. From virtual learning and home-schooling to parents and partners working at home, responsibilities have shifted and the entire family is spending more time together. Because of these changes, families may have had to "relearn" what to do to keep themselves and everyone healthy, in terms of food and cooking, staying physically active, staying busy and stimulated (especially children), and staying connected to their loved ones they couldn't see in person anymore.

How has your family life changed over these last few months? Share in the comments below.

A peach so ripe that the juice runs down to your elbows.
A crisp apple that’s the perfect balance of sweet and tart.
The smell of citrus permeating the air as you peel back the skin of a clementine.
It’s the whiff of an earthy, sweet pumpkin you’re carving up for Halloween.
 
Seasonal food is produce that is purchased and consumed around the time that it has been harvested, which means that it’s at its absolute peak in terms of flavor and nutritional value.
 
Eating seasonally is hardly a new trend, it’s something humans have been doing throughout history up until the very recent past when transportation allowed bulk shipment of food from distant countries.
 
There are tons of benefits you’ll get from eating seasonally, which we’ll be discussing during the coming days. But first, I want to know how closely you follow a seasonal produce diet. How often do you buy fruits and veggies that are out of season?

Keep your expectations realistic! No one can be everything that we want them to be, and healthy relationships mean accepting people as they are without trying to change them.

Please don't hesitate to ask questions...

With Gratitude
