Well friends, I had every intention of going back to Pick of the Week this week, but since I couldn’t find anything that struck my fancy at the grocery store, and because last week’s post was such a big hit, I’m going to do another roundup of my favorite posts. I think it’s a great way to expose my readers to some of the amazing blogs that i read!
So here we go:
For all of you that love the veggie burger at Northstar:
Try these burgers from The Healthy Hostess.

Great post—this was fun to read!
Definitely should get rid of the word diet—-even though it technically doesn’t mean “restriction” it is too widely understood that way. Lose the word, and we can work on how people think about food

I love it when you do posts like this!! Thanks for the should out
I need to go read the one about emotional eating, and the one about morning exercise. I did the same thing…transformed myself into a “morning exerciser!”. I always swore I would never be able to workout in the morning, but now I don’t know life without it!
Have a great weekend
Oh, and I LOVE LOVE LOVE Northstar cafe!
