Dedication
To Aunt Jo with love,
You were an inspiration to everyone you met. You lived by the rules. You ate organic, never smoked and drank red wine and yet you were taken way to soon. You showed me generosity, kindness and love. You always opened your home and your heart to me and my family, especially my child. You made me see the world in a different way. You changed me and helped make me into a better person. Rarely do you find someone that special in your life. I was so lucky and privileged to have known you. You will be sorely missed by all who loved you.

Rejuvenated and Reinvented and at 55!

Yes 55 and lost  is now 55 rejuvenated and reinvented. Sometimes in life the smallest set back, can relight a fire in your belly. But even though I have used my nutritional training in my own life, my families and close friends, I want to go public.
Now I have a domain name and a website. How chic! I have now officially joined the 21st century. 
How exciting. For the first time in over 25 years I love what I am planning to do.I have wonderful plans and thoughts about ways to get this off the ground.
My website has been challenging to make but with an opened mind and positive energy, my work in progress will soon become a work of art.

It's 2 years later and I'm still thin.  What a surprise! Who would have thought being scared skinny and eating nutritionally sound foods would pay off.  I'm still scared but I must say that as my daughter who is now a sophomore in college, my life has quieted down . A bit too much actually. I thought Mr Max my 12 yr old golden lab was a goner but he is doing better now than all summer long. I miss H.S. It was so much fun and easier going through high school the second time around. Freshman year of college was still a waiting game of when will the other shoe drop.Well it didn't
Now I am a parent of a sophomore, and lost.With way too much time on my hands I needed something to do.  At 55 my options are limited.I know how to teach and I know how to cook. I know a few more things but I don't think I could blog about that without getting a big fallout.
That is how BONAPPETITMOM got started.  I want to be able to teach people how to eat.  Fast foods are killing us. People don't know what portions are or how important it is to measure their food. People don't take the time to cook properly. Working full time I get it. Being alone in the house I get that too. I know that if I don't do something now I never will. 
I have designed BONAPPETITMOM to teach people how to plan menus, prepare healthy foods and to lose weight. I have a BS in nutrition and MS in nutrition education.
