Madonna refuses to be 50 -- Do you accept your age?

There's something to be said for not allowing your age to slow you down. After all, if you've been alive for 60 years, but still feel like a 30-year-old, you should act the way you feel. However, Madonna is taking things a step further -- for her 50th birthday celebration, her guests are under strict instructions to not mention the number 50 in any way, shape, or form, because the singer believes her "spiritual age" to be 36.

The high priests of Kabbalah have calculated Madge's spiritual age to be 14 years younger than her actual age by channeling her energy. And, truth be told, she certainly has the energy and, dare I say, the aura of someone much younger. So if she feels like she's 36, that's great. But, I have a problem this refusal to acknowledge 50.

By doing this, Madonna is sending a message to women everywhere that it's not acceptable to turn 50, when we know that's far from the truth, especially these days. Instead of being a fitness inspiration to women hitting the big 5-0, Madonna is running away from it, yet still marking it with a big celebration.

What about you? Do you think Madonna should embrace 50 as fabulous, or would you follow her lead and go with the youngest age you can get away with?

2 fresh tomato sauce recipes

Our CSA Farm has begun to produce an abundance of tomatoes these past few weeks. Aside from eating them like apples, as my three-year-old often chooses to do, you can make fresh tomato salad, salsa, or fresh tomato sauce. Our very informal uncooked recipe goes something like this: Chop a bunch of tomatoes and put them in a bowl. Add enough balsamic vinegar and olive oil to cover them. Stir fresh minced garlic and chopped fresh basil into the tomato mixture. Season with seas salt and freshly ground black pepper to taste. Let marinate at room temperature at least 30 minutes before serving. This is such a refreshing summer meal when served on pasta with a green salad, or a tasty snack as a bruschetta topping.

Healthy Eating at a Restaurant: Is it Possible?

If you and your family love to eat at restaurants, you may think that this lifestyle is not good for a healthy diet. In many cases, you would be correct. However, you can still enjoy restaurants occasionally and maintain your healthy diet. Its all about making good food choices, which starts with learning about the nutrition you need to stay happy, physically healthy, mentally stable, and active. When you pick up the menu, start by skipping over the drink section. Although you may be tempted to enjoy a beer or mixed beverage with your dinner, these usually have many empty calories, which is not good for your body. The exception to this rule when it comes to alcohol is wine, especially red wine, which can be fine if you have a single glass and can actually help prevent heart disease for some patients. Also skip over the appetizer menu, unless it’s to over a side salad. The appetizers at restaurants are usually high-fat foods that are not meant to fill you up and can in fact make you cra...
