A lot of us have been avoiding food with dyes in them because research showed that they cause cancer. Did you know food dyes are made from petroleum? Other countries have banned them for years. Glad to see the FDA finally got the message. Read below for more info and remember to read the labels before purchasing food products.

A week after our viral post on Red Dye 3, for the first time in 35 years-- it just got banned by the FDA today because it causes cancer.

THANK YOU FOR LISTENING FDA!!!

What foods have it? Toaster pastries. Braches candy. Marishino cherries. Nesquick. Pedialyte. Enteman's coffee cake. Ibuprofin. Betty Crocker. Strawberry flavored milk. Fruit cocktail. Pop. And so. Much. More.

My son was here today and wanted the recipe for Bread Pudding that i make often. I explained that this was a recipe my grandma made back in the 50's when money was tight and she wanted to make a treat for the family. It uses common ingredients and is easy to prepare. The bread was often stale bread saved up until there was 4 cups. With times where we can't afford store-bought treats, try this and i think your family will enjoy it.
GRANDMA'S BREAD PUDDING
4 cups stale bread of any kind, but brioche bread is
my favorite. The day before i make it, i tear it into small pieces (cubes)
and spread out on a cookie sheet to dry overnite. Measure out 4 cups into large mixing bowl.
2 eggs, slightly beaten
2 cups milk (I add part whipping cream)
1/4 cup butter, melted
1/2 cup sugar
1 T. ground cinnamon
1/2 t. Ground nutmeg
2 t. Vanilla
Preheat oven to 350 degrees.
Grease a 9 x 13 pan and set aside.

In a medium bowl, combine eggs, milk, melted butter, sugar, cinnamon, nutmeg and vanilla. Pour mixture over bread and let sit 15 minutes stirring to be sure all bread is covered.
Pour into greased pan and bake uncovered for 50- 55 minutes until toothpick inserted comes out mostly clean.
Remove from oven and serve warm with ice cream or whipped cream, but it is good just as it is.
I hope you enjoy my grandma's recipe.

Dry lips were such a problem for me. Over-the-counter lip balms were not doing anything so i made my own with natural ingredients. Remember to use right before bed too. Here's to healthy, silky lips in the new year!

Here is a list I saw that predicts eleven scarce items in the grocery store in the future and why.
1. Bread - Lower wheat production
2. Sunflower and Palm Oil - Produced in Ukraine
3. Champagne - Climate change issues
4. Beer. canned food, pet food - Lower production/climate change
5. Lettuce - Due to disease
6. Corn - Climate change
7. Oranges - Climate change
8. Beef - Climate change
9. Olive Oil - Climate change
10. Infant Formula - Contamination with bacteria
11. Chicken - Due to bird flu

Prepare if you can. Grow a garden and use good soil and seeds.
Can or freeze vegetables, chicken and beef. Don't know how. Take a local class or contact a plant nursery or local Extension Service.
When canned products go on sale, purchase a quantity as most last 2-3 years when undamaged.
Freeze or can beef and chicken when it is plentiful and reduced in price. Frozen food lasts about a year if sealed well and canned 2-3 years.
Stock up on Olive Oil or other oils you use as shelf life is usually long.
Buy your beer and champagne while it is plentiful and reasonably priced.
Any questions or if you have other suggestions, please post.

About Life:
Life is amazing. And then it is awful.
And then it's amazing again.
And in between the amazing and awful
it's ordinary and mundane and routine.
Breathe in the amazing,
hold on through the awful,
and relax and exhale during the ordinary.
That's just living heartbreaking,
soul-healing, amazing, awful, ordinary life.
And it's breathtakingly beautiful!
