Thought For The Day: If you had been there on the day with a lunch under your cloak, would you have offered it to Jesus? Happy Wings Wednesday, as we continue to eat right and exercise we are soaring like an eagle….we are flying heights we know not of… and guess what? It feels good … so Keep Up The Good Work J Elderly Balance Exercises For Seniors to Help Prevent Falls You might have asked the question… Why do we have so many articles about Elderly and Seniors Citizens? It is because we many not what to admit it, but we are getting older every day and if we are not there jet we will be there soon… so this is some preventive measures that we can use if and when we need it…. "Why is my balance getting worse and why am I falling?" Have you ever lost your footing on wet or icy pavement causing you to fling your arms in the air and sending your heart into high gear? If you have then you know how frightening losing your balance can be. Ordinarily we take our balance for granted, but it is an important and vital part of our daily life. As many as 28% to 45% of elders fall each year. Though our balance will decline as we age, balance activities, elderly balance exercises and elderly balance training can limit the loss or actually improve our performance. Here are some things that may be involved with your balance problems: • Your vision may decrease which can lead to falls due to not seeing clearly. • Your hips and legs can become weaker making it harder to walk. • We can develop poor posture or have spinal degeneration making it harder to stand erect. • Our ability to lift our feet decreases and we can stumble. • It takes longer to react when something is in our way causing us to fall. • Many drugs interact causing dizziness or decrease balance. • Low blood pressure can lead to light-headedness increasing our risk of falls. * Caution: Make sure you check with your doctor if you suspect a more serious balance problem involving vertigo, ear infections, Meniere's disease, chronic dizziness or drug interactions. That is why beginning a balance program for elderly and seniors which incorporates strength training, endurance training and balance training is essential in maintaining and promoting good balance. Foods You Don’t Have to Buy Organic for the Holidays Rudy’s Creamed Corn This post originally appeared on July 28th, 2009. It continues to be the most popular way that people find Bluebonnets & Brownies, and it’s still one of my favorite ways to bring “home” to our dinner table. About a week ago, I hosted 4 bloggers in my home for the weekend of Big Summer Potluck. I served this for dinner on Thursday night with barbecued chicken and Borracho Beans. It was a feast! With barbecue season nearly at a close, I wanted to make sure you have time to put this on your Labor Day party menu. You’ll be asked for the recipe for weeks to come. And because this side dish comes together in the slow cooker without much effort, it’s the perfect side dish for the grill. No oven, no mess, and it can be served right in the slow cooker on the table. Enjoy! Ingredients 4 lbs. frozen sweet corn 2 8 oz blocks cream cheese, diced into 1 inch squares 1 stick (4 oz) of salted butter 3/4 cup heavy whipping cream 4 tablespoons of sugar 1 teaspoon black pepper 1/2 teaspoon salt Directions Throw all the ingredients, without any sort of ceremony or circumstance, into a crockpot on medium or low for at least 4 hours. If you need it done faster, cook it on the stove or on high in the crockpot, but be prepared to sacrifice a little of the savory goodness that results when corn is allowed to soak in dairy for hours. All of the cream cheese pieces should be completely melted and will easily break down and combine with the cream and butter to make the ‘gravy’. Do not over-salt. There is plenty of salt in the butter and cream cheese. Over-salting will ruin this dish.
