In my attempt to break away from some old eating habits and adopt new and healthier ones , I have decided to completely cut out sodas and to replace them with natural home-made juices.
This implies that my entire household would have to be part of this move!
Sometimes it is a struggle getting especially the kids to accept some of these natural fruits juice combinations. I am not giving it up.
Healthier is better, I often tell them. Try , try and try and soon you will get used to it. I think we are making progress. I will be happy to share some of my juice recipes here on my blog, as I go along.
