Healthy March Madness!

During the month of March, many of us enjoy getting wrapped up in March Madness; we check stats, compare brackets and, of course, get together to watch the games! March is also National Nutrition Month, so these gatherings are a great time to try some healthy snacks! Check out the CDC's website for information on the fruit of the month (exoctic winter fruit) and the vegetable of the month (leeks and green onions) and for some healthy recipe ideas: http://www.fruitsandveggiesmatter.gov/month/index.html

Why not get ready for the big games with some playing of your own? Basketball is a great way to get some exercise. Get the whole family involved with a game of "around the world" or "knockout!" Springtime brings lots of opportunities to play outside, so enjoy the weather and have fun!
