Tips for healthy eating


Eat a variety of food
- Eating a variety of food will help you to get the energy, protein, vitamins, minerals, and fiber you need for good health.

Choose a diet low in fat, saturated fat and cholesterol
- Diets that are low in fat, saturated fat, and cholesterol may reduce your risk of heart attack and certain types of cancer. Fat contains more than twice the calories of an equal amount of carbohydrates or protein, so a diet low in fat can help you maintain a healthy weight.

Choose a diet with plenty of vegetables, fruits, and grains
- These foods provide the essential vitamins, minerals, fibe and complex carbohydrates. Since these are naturally low in fat, they can help lower your intake of fat.

Use sugars only in moderation
- A diet that is low in sodium can help reduce your risk of high blood pressure.

If you drink alcoholic beverages, do so in moderation
- Alcoholic beverages add calories, but provide little nutrition.

Anaheim, wine, hiking trails, bears, etc.

I was 97% sure I read somewhere that the Anaheim Founders Park -- which features the Victorian Wolke-Stoffle House, the Mother Colony House, and a huge fig tree -- celebrated its groundbreaking recently. But now I can't find that article for the life of me. Very annoying. However, I do have two verifiable bits of news from that park:
1) A trail through the park is now marked as the "O.K. Trail" in honor of of the delightful Opal Kissinger. Opal ran the History Room at Anaheim Public Library for many years, and has continued to be an active part of the historical community since her retirement. She's had a hand in a lot of good things in recent years, but her portrayals of historical figures like Helena Modjeska have been especially well-received.

2) The vines behind the Wolke-Stoffle (a.k.a. Red Cross) House are growing the same kind of grapes cultivated by the German vintners who founded Anaheim. Don Dobmeier of the Orange County Historical Society and Orange County Historical Commission has been tending them carefully. (He's in the photo at the top of today's post.) Now, with the help of the fledgling Anaheim Brewery, for the first time in a LONG time, there will be genuine Anaheim wine. Read more about it on the Anaheim Brewery's blog.

.Karin Klein of the L.A. Times has a new book out, entitled, 50 Hikes In Orange County. I haven't read it yet, (it only came out this week), but I know she researched the history of our local back country. As someone who enjoys going out and exploring historic sites on foot, I'm looking forward to seeing what she has to say.

Karin also has an article about the late bear population in Orange County in today's Times.

Tinkerbell Tattoos

Tinkerbell is an iconic cartoon character, first featured in J. M. Barrie's 1904 play entitled Peter and Wendy. The cute mystical fairy has since appeared in several animated feature films and television shows, perhaps best known from Walt Disney's film entitled Peter Pan.

Tinkerbell tattoos are beloved by women, and the designs often show Tink brandishing a magic wand or perhaps positioned on a flower of sorts. These tattoo picture ideas should help you conjure up a plan for your very own design.

Father Serra, Capistrano, OCPAC, Seal Beach, etc

On this day in 1776, after an aborted first attempt a year earlier, Father Junipero Serra received permission to establish Mission San Juan Capistrano. The statue of Serra shown above is over the entrance of to Mission San Buenaventura, in Ventura, California. Is it just me, or does this look like the work of the WPA?
.
On this day in 1986, the Orange County Performing Arts Center formally opened with a peformance by the Los Angeles Philharmonic.
.
Seal Beach will celebrate it's 95th birthday in October with a series of special events. Check out their Founders Day website for more information.

The Hulk Tattoos

The Hulk is an iconic cartoon superhero who has appeared in comic books, television series and several motion pictures. This mean green wreaking machine is known for having a quick temper, which ultimately causes him to transform from ordinary Bruce Banner to a clobbering creature known as The Hulk.

Tattoos of this classic character are rather common and portrayed in an array of styles, ranging from modern to classic representations of the muscular maniac. Enjoy the tattoo pictures below.
