Today’s Poem ~ A Thought for Washing Day

A Thought for Washing Day

Julia Ward Howe

The clothes-line is a Rosary
Of household help and care;
Each little saint the Mother loves
Is represented there.

And when across her garden plot
She walks, with thoughtful heed,
I should not wonder if she told
Each garment for a bead.

A stranger passing, I salute
The Household in its wear,
And smile to think how near of kin
Are love and toil and prayer.

🍎 Today’s Health Tip ~ Will Eating Fat Make You Fat?

The fat-free and low-fat diet trend is a thing of the past (80s and 90s, to be exact). . . . Fat has beneficial functions like protecting our organs, maintaining cell membranes, promoting growth and development, and absorbing essential vitamins. Be aware that fats aren’t created equal. Choose heart-healthy unsaturated fats, such as olive and canola oil, nuts, nut butters and avocados over those that are high in saturated and trans fats, including fatty meats and high-fat dairy products.
