If you want to know more about "who" we are, check out this article about us in Lake Murray magazine!  (*Great job, LM - thanks!!!)

Read it HERE (*or at http://www.scribd.com/doc/62856055/Lake-Murray-Magazine-September-2011).

It's a little slow to download because it's a whole magazine!
A 30 year Harvard study tracked 119,000 women and men. 

Those who ate peanuts, pistachios, almonds, walnuts, and other tree nuts daily had less risk of dying from heart disease and cancer.  Previous studies showed lower risks of diabetes and colon cancer, too.  (*Long as you're not ALLERGIC to them, you know?)

The belief that eating more nuts would make you fat from their high caloric content didn't show up in their studies.  In fact, they found the opposite.

Some, like the heart association, recommend unsalted, unoiled, but the Harvard study didn't define how they were prepared.

Funny phone call! 

A dear friend called and blurted out that she ran out of the vitamins we carry, didn’t have time to get it from me so since she was in the health store anyway, she picked up some “whole food” supplements there.

She reasoned, “ They’re on sale so a good price, organic, reputable company – has to be similar to the GNLD Cindy has so this is good.”

With a sudden burst of energy, she dramatically exclaimed, “They’re good….but I’m still TIRED….and THIS IS RIDICULOUS, CINDY!   I don’t have TIME to be TIRED!  I don’t know what GNLD puts in their vitamins that other companies don’t but there’s something missing in these!!! I can’t AFFORD to be tired all the time….I’ve got way too much to do for this to be happening!  Can I PLEASE get some more of the ProVitality boxes and I’ll take a Super B while you’re at it!” “ 

What a great way to start a Friday! 

Nice to know we’re making a DIFFERENCE in one busy mom’s life!

I LOVE cats.... 

Always have, but there was a time when I let the negativity of those around me - (ahem!) - stifle my desire to own another until......

Our daughter called, saying, "Mom....guess what I've got in  my car?  A box of abandoned kittens!"

Eyes barely open, they were dirty, starving. 

They needed full-time care - bottle feeding constantly - and the smallest, little Sophie, came very close to dying due to being so under-nourished. 

(*She's now so healthy and strong that she's trying to sit on my HEAD as I type tonight! ha!)

Our little grey dog became their mom, and eventually all thrived!    
 
Consider giving a cat a good home!  Ours repay me DAILY with more love than I could have imagined the day that box came through our front door! 

I loved these photos below of an island where cats are welcomed and roam free! (*Bet there's not a mouse problem there! Ours keep our home fairly "bug" free, too! ha!)

Beautiful colors - enjoy this "visual" vacation HERE.
