Happy
Holidays?

I
hope you all survived the feasts that were served without bigger
stomach aches. I know it’s always tempting to eat too much of
all the good food – and desserts – but who can withstand
these temptations? Let’s hope your tummy feels fine when you
read this!
Let’s
say you survived the first part of the holidays without bigger
“damage” caused by overeating, will you be one of the folks
flooding the stores in order to exchange all the “gifts” you
didn’t like? The media made sure that you know what it takes
to return all the gifts you want to get rid off.
Is
that what these holidays are all about? Gifts and Food?
I
still remember the times when the family got together to
celebrate Christmas, without being bombarded weeks ahead by ads
trying to talk you into buying gifts and food. Yes, the kids got
some presents under the Christmas tree – and so did the
adults. But nothing compared to what is going on today! What we
see today is all about buying gifts – the more expensive the
better -- and food! What happened to the nice family
get-together?
Make
sure you survive as well part two of the holidays: NEW
YEAR! More great food – and very often: A lot more
alcohol! The ads to buy booze are already flooding our TV
screens.
Don’t
fall for it – and don’t start 2014 with tummy ache and a
serious hang-over!
I wish you all a HAPPY NEW YEAR 2014!
