Happy Mothers Day!

A Splash of Color for All the Moms Out There

What could be better than a healthy brunch and stretch? Waffles to start then a stretch for afters for dessert.

HEALTH NUT WAFFLES:

1/2 c. quick oatmeal

1/2 c. whole wheat flour

1/2 c. ground flaxseed (or increase amounts of oatmeal and flour)

2 teas. baking powder

2 teas. or more cinnamon

1 teas. vanilla

2 eggs

1/2 c. milk

3 tablespoons healthy oil

Mix dry ingredients together, then wet, let set for five minutes, add milk or egg if too dense to pour. Pour into wafflemaker (should make about 4 good sized waffles) and cook. Eat and enjoy.

Afterwards: stretch and work those all important thigh muscles when standing up: place legs so that thighs are halfway off the chair, plant feet hip width apart, give yourself a hug (everybody needs a hug!) and press through your feet as you stand. Sit SLOWLY back down, to work the back of the thighs and repeat 3-5 times.

AND ENJOY MOM'S DAY!
