There is no denying that

Irish eyes are smiling

come the month of

March. With the widely cele-

brated and festive Saint

Patrick's Day arriving mid-

month, the parades and sham-

rocks might overshadow the fact

that there's more to Irish her-itage than Saint Patrick's Day.

In fact, the entire month of

March is dedicated to Irish-

American heritage.

In 1840, many Irish people

immigrated to North America

to escape the great potato

famine happening in Ireland.

Today almost 40 million people

claim Irish ancestry, and there

are millions of Irish-Americans

making contributions to theUnited States each and every

day, with notable Irish-

Americans in all walks of life.

Here are just a handful of people

of Irish heritage who have made

strides in their respective disci-

plines through the years.

Charles Carroll III: Carroll

was born in Maryland where

there were once laws to prohib-

it Catholics from voting, hold-

ing office or worshiping

publicly. Carroll became a

Catholic-rights activist and also

served as a U.S. Senator in the

first Congress. He holds the title

as the only Catholic to havesigned the Declaration of

Independence.

Harry "Bing" Crosby: Crosby

was an acclaimed entertainer

whose contributions are still

valued today, more than three

decades after his death. A singer

and actor, his trademark

smooth, baritone voice helped

catapult Crosby to the list of top

record sellers for the twentieth

century. One of the first peopleto receive three stars on the

Hollywood Walk of Fame,

Crosby also earned an Academy

Award for Best Actor for his

role as Father Chuck O'Malley

in the 1944 motion picture

"Going My Way."

Henry Ford: The American

auto industry can give thanks to

the eviction of John Ford from

Cork in 1847, which enabled

the Ford family to move to the

States shortly after. John's son

Henry became an automobilepioneer and helped pave the

way for the dominance and pop-

ularity of the American car.

John Hughes: Many people say

that Hughes' popular teen

movies documented their own

teenage years. Hughes is best

known for a string of quirky, yet

spot-on depictions of the aver-

age American teenager that

helped start the careers of actors

who would go on to be known

as the "Brat Pack". In the 1990s,

hits like "Home Alone" and"Curly Sue" also resonated with

audiences and helped solidify

Hughes as a leader in family

entertainment. He passed away

in 2009 from a heart attack.

Ron Howard: One of

Hollywood's most successful

and you looked at the paystub

for the first time to realize the

terms: FICA, FED WITH,

SUI, STATE TAX, ESOP or

and how that reduced your

gross pay resulting in that min-

must have made a mistake?How could it be possible that

there are so many and such

severe deductions? Will I get

some of that back at tax return

tainment expenses like dating,

travel and vacations.

Did you tell yourself that

retirement is decades away and

that eventually you would getserious about it when you could

afford to seriously address it or

when you got a raise or bonus?

Were you correct and did you

keep your promise? Were you

relieved when you found your

spouse and soul mate to share

your lives together and to pool

your resources for the greater

good, including bill paying

relief and the ability to make a

serious consideration to retire-ment allocations? Did you allo-

cate serious funds to your

retirement planning and port-

folio at that time? Did your

spouse and working partner

eventually get pregnant and

leave the work force to be a

more involved parent saying

that when the child was old

enough for school she would

re-enter the work force to allo-

cate serious funding for retire-ment planning at that time?

Did it come to pass or were

those great intentions derailed

by the birth of your second

child. By now you had found a

better job or received bonuses

and raises; did you carve-out amajor percentage of the raises

and bonuses explicitly for

retirement funding yet?

Were there extracurricu-

lar activities like dance classes,

music instruction, and karate

lessons, summer camp, winter

skiing or educational tutoring?

These expenses no doubt cut

into funds that otherwise

would have been directed to

IRAs or other retirement accu-mulations. The kids got older

and now college tuition plan-

ning entered the foray also

deriding the retirement accu-

mulation desires. Along the

way, cost of living expenses

rose, property taxes increased,

pay raises and bonuses were less

plentiful or eliminated alto-

gether. Before you know it 25

years have passed since that

first paycheck! You sit backand critique your ambitions,

decisions, successes and failures

and more importantly the

account balances and portfolio

values. What do I do now you

may ask? Youre about 50 and

retirement is looking more likean illusion rather than a right!

You rationalize this with the

fact that youll work to age 70,

giving you 20 more years to

accumulate your fortune.

Perhaps there will be a small

inheritance from either your

parents or hers to give you a

retirement boost, and if I delay

Social Security that ultimate

check will be bigger anyway!

The stock market hasnt been

too friendly to your 401k any-

way, or to your non-qualified

portfolio either. Now will be agreat time to get started you

say. College tuition is firmly

upon you now and the

prospects for future employ-

ment with your current

employer or other companies

in your industry are shaky at

best. Your property taxes are

now 5 times more than your

first home and the price of a car

has quintupled since your first

car purchase. Lo and behold,

you are paying to insure 4 cars

now, yours, hers and the two

kids. Perhaps youve thought tostart a vegetable garden to save

some money at the grocery

store which has escalated your

food budget by 300% over the

last 25 years. At this point in

your life you fully understand

the erosion factures of infla-

tion. You begin to calculate

the required nest egg to be able

to generate enough monthly

income for you and your part-

ner to live modestly for the rest

of your natural lives. The con-

clusion is you need help; you

need a competent financialadvisor! In fact, you need an

expert to put the pieces of your

financial puzzle in order before

its too late, a retirement and

estate planning specialist that

has the knowledge and ability

to craft a guaranteed* lifetime

retirement income plan from

Scientists have identifiedtwo substances in

licorice used extensive-

ly in Chinese traditional med-

icine that kills major bacteria

responsible for tooth decay

and gum disease. In a study, in

the Journal of Natural prod-

ucts, they say these substances

could have a role in treatingand preventing these afflic-

tions.

The study found that the

compounds Licoricidin and

Licorisoflavan A were the

most effective antibacterial

substance. These are capable

of killing two of the major

bacteria responsible for cavi-

ties and three of the bacteria

that promote gum disease.

The dried root of the

licorice plant is a commontreatment in Chinese tradi-

tional medicine. Licorice

candy in the U.S. has replaced

licorice root with anise oil

that tastes similar. Some day

licorice root could be used to

treat or even prevent oral

infections.

H

ow common is a

headache? Accor-

ding to recent scien-

tific studies, it is becoming

alarmingly common!

Research from Finland

shows the incidence of both

general and migraine headache

in children increased markedly

between 1974 and 1992. Using

the same methodology and

school environments in both

studies, researchers found in

1974 about 14% of a large sam-

ple of 7-year old children suf-

fered from headache and less

than 2% from migraine. In

1992 these figures leaped

almost four-fold to 52% for

headache and 6% for migraine.

American researchers,

using national statistics, report-

ed the prevalence for migraine

in the adult population

increased about 60% from 1980

to 1989. The highest increase

was found in women youngerthan 45 years. A third study,

also from the United States,

revealed a sharp increase of

migraine between 1979 and

1991 in persons under 45 years,

a jump of 34% in women and

nearly 100% in men.

Several theories have

been suggested to help explain

these startling statistics.

Increased stress in our lives,

both for adults and children, is

one of the more common. This

theory lacks credibility, howev-

er, as many authorities agree

the factors that contribute to

stress have not changed signifi-

cantly over the past decades.

More likely the dramatic

increase in headache is multi-

factoral: diet, fitness level, rest,

pollution and allergy, time

spent sitting at desks, computer

screens and watching television

and, yes, stress.

Perhaps the single most

important factor may be pos-

ture. Simply put, we slouch

more. Research is now show-

ing posture affects not onlymuscle and joint function, but

also function of the nervous

system. We are learning that

the static (postural, structural)

and dynamic (mechanical,

functional) state of our necks

has a profound relationship to

headache, both general and

migraine. Fortunately, posture,

like diet, fitness, sleep and time

spent sitting, is something we

can change.

If you would like more

information about the relation-

ship between posture and

headache, ask your chiroprac-

tor.

In the last article we learned

that dogs become senior cit-

izens just like people. The

same is true for our feline fami-

ly members. As veterinary

medicine advances, our cats are

living longer, and certain

changes are expected as our

cats age. These dont have to

be negative changes. We can

help them adapt with minimal

effort by diagnosing problems

early, modifying the cat's envi-

ronment, diet and interaction

with us.

Age itself is not a disease

but the following are issues that

are more common in our senior

cats. Addressing these changes

and diagnosing diseases early

are essential to the health of

your older cat. Preventative

veterinary care can add years

and quality to the life of your

cat, which can include early

detection blood work and com-

plete veterinary exams every 6

months for our senior pets.

Arthritis is one of the

most under diagnosed diseases

in older cats. The changes are

very subtle and older cats are

more sedentary which makes it

very difficult to observe if

theyre having joint pain.

What you may see is difficulty

jumping onto counters, win-

dow sills or going up and down

stairs. This may lead to other

problems like not using the lit-

ter box, especially

if they have to

travel up or down

stairs to get to it or

if the litter box

has high sides.

Cats are sensitive

to many anti-

i n f l a m m a t o r y

medications such

as aspirin and

acetaminophen.

Do NOT give

your cat an anti-inflammatory

or pain relief medication unless

prescribed by your veterinari-

an. A very safe and effective

supplement to start them on is

glucosamine and chondroitin

(as prescribed from your veteri-

narian). Also make sure their

litter box and bowls are on the

same level of the house where

they spend most of their time.

Obesity is one of the main

health problems of middle age

cats. This should be addressed

early because, as a senior, it can

predispose them to diseases like

diabetes and heart disease or

just make other issues worse

like arthritis. Its harder to get

the weight off a senior cat, so

do it now by measuring the

food given, not just keeping the

bowl full and by increasing

their exercise.A veterinarian

can help you monitor their

weight and body condition and

adjust the diet accordingly.

Dental disease is one of

the most common changes we

see in senior citizen cats. By the

age of four, more than 70 per-

cent of cats exhibit signs of

dental disease. Preventative

dental care including tooth

brushing, dental treats, regular

dental checkups, and profes-

sional cleaning as needed are

aimed at keeping dental disease

to a minimum.

Without proper

dental care, signif-

icant dental dis-

ease can develop

which could lead

to pain and life-

threatening com-

plications.

Older cats

may need to be

groomed more

often. Grooming

is a great way for you to spend

enjoyable time with your older

cat and is a means to check for

any lumps, bumps, sores,

etc. In an older cat, the fur may

become thinner or duller; how-

ever, this can also be a sign of

disease or nutritional deficien-

cy. If your cats coat changes

significantly, you should con-

sult with a veterinarian.

A n o t h e r

change to closely

monitor for is

increased thirst

or urination. This

may be the earli-

est sign seen in

older cats for

many diseases,

most commonly,

kidney insufficiency, diabetes

mellitus and hyperthy-

roidism. These diseases can be

detected even earlier with early

detection/wellness blood work

which can be performed at your

cats 6 or 12 month exams.

Many diseases tested for with

this type of panel are simply

and effectively treatable with-

out putting the cat through a

lot. By finding disease process-

es early, oftentimes there is a

better prognosis for a longer

and happier life.

Our senior cats need to be

monitored more closely.

Knowing what changes to

expect and what to look for can

help you and your cat adjust

when and if they do come.

Dont disregard any changes as

'just being old age.' These could

be early signs of a more serious

disease. Always consult your

veterinarian if you are in doubt

or notice changes. We owe it

to our longtime companions to

take care of them in their sen-

ior years as much as we did

when they were kittens.

Did you ever notice the

little boy on the soc-

cer field who just

could not quite kick the ball,

tripped over people and had

poor coordination when try-

ing to dribble? Or the little

girl in ballet class who had a

difficult time imitating the

teachers body movements

and sequencing the dance

steps? What about the first

grader on the playground who

constantly barged into other

children and just didnt seem

to see obstacles in front of him

causing him to trip and fall

constantly? Most people refer

to these children as clumsy,

but there may be a better

explanation.

For the last 100 years

poor motor coordination or

clumsiness has been recog-

nized as a problem. Recently,

the term Developmental

Coordination Disorder

(DCD) has been used when

referring to children with

motor coordination difficul-

ties. This is a fairly common

childhood disorder and is usu-

ally identified in school age

children between the ages of

6-12. Studies indicate that

the prevalence of DCD is esti-

mated at 8-12% of all school-

aged children with more boys

diagnosed than girls (2:1). As

a result of the wide diversity in

the DCD diagnosis, finding its

true cause has been difficult

and is unknown at this time.

Some speculate that DCD can

be caused by an injury that

occurs before or during the

birthing process. Others say

that DCD is a result of damage

on the cellular level.

In order for a child to be

diagnosed with DCD it must

impact on some aspect of his

or her life. These children

often exhibit poor balance,

tripping on uneven surfaces,

an awkward running pattern,

dropping items, frequent trip-

ping and falling, difficulty imi-

tating body positions and fol-

lowing 2-3 step motor direc-

tions. These motor problems

will affect the childs ability to

complete motor oriented

tasks. Because of these prob-

lems, children often perform

poorly in sports demonstrating

slow reaction and movement

times. Since these children do

not feel successful when par-

ticipating in sports, they may

feel insecure. This insecurity

can lead to a more sedentary

lifestyle for the child thus

causing poor muscular

strength, decreased muscle

force and ultimately weight

gain. Unfortunately, children

with DCD may experience

other difficulties, besides the

physical limitations. These

children may exhibit psy-

chosocial problems. Because

these children may not excel

in one area, they may seek less

socially desirable types of

attention. They may be the

class clown or act out more

often than the other children.

Adolescents with DCD have

been found to have fewer

friends, lower self esteem and

more anxiety than their peers

without DCD.

Historically parents have

been told not to worry about

their childs clumsiness. The

child will outgrow the prob-

lem. However, current

research states that children

do not outgrow clumsiness

and without intervention, will

not improve.

Motor control processes

are complex and depend on

integrating the sensory, per-

ceptual, cognitive and motor

systems. A skilled Pediatric

Physical Therapist can work

on integrating all of these sys-

tems to assist the child in

working toward age appropri-

ate functional goals. By

breaking down components of

a task, practicing each compo-

nent repetitively and translat-

ing the new skill into the

childs natural environment,

motor skills can be greatly

improved, confidence and self

assuredness enhanced and

enthusiasm and participation

in sports and age appropriate

games greatly increased. I

have worked with hundreds of

children with symptoms that

Why does my child seem souncoordinated/awkward? By Gena Livingston



14/32

In a press release from

January 31, 2012, IRS com-

missioner Doug Shulman

announced the results of a

nationwide effort to cut down

on identity theft and refund

fraud. The IRS worked in con-

junction with the Justice

Department's Tax Division and

local U.S. Attorneys' offices to

target more than one hundred

people across twenty-three

states. The sweep resulted in

939 criminal charges against

would-be tax frauds.

In addition to the sweep,

IRS auditors and investigators

visited approximately 150

money-service businesses to

conduct extensive compliance

visits and insure these business-

es aren't engaged in practices

which may facilitate refund

fraud and identity theft.

Taxpayer identity theft

normally occurs when a thief

uses a legitimate taxpayer's

identity to falsely file a tax

return and claim a refund. A

victim of identity theft is rarely

aware their identity has been

stolen until he or she attempts

to file a legitimate return later

in the tax season and discovers

that another return has already

been filed using their Social

Security Number.

If you receive an IRS noti-

fication for any of the following

reasons, you should take imme-

diate action:

More than one return was filed

for you in a single tax year

You have a balance due,

refund offset or have had col-

lection actions taken against

you for a year you did not file a

tax return, or

IRS records indicate you

received wages from an

employer unknown to you.

Immediately respond to the

name and number printed on

the letter if you receive such

notification.

The IRS advises you to

minimize your risk of identity

theft by:

Rarely carrying your

Social Security card or docu-

ments with your SSN on them.

Disclosing your SSN only

when required. Many business-

es may ask for your SSN but do

not actually need it. Do not

give out your SSN unless

absolutely necessary.

Protecting your financial infor-

mation, both online and in

print.

Checking your credit

report periodically. You may

check your credit without

charge once a year at

www.equifax.com, www.exper-

ian.com, or www.transunion

.com. By using each of these

services only once each year,

fall into this category with

excellent and permanent

results that both parents and

children are greatly pleased

with.

Many parents can

attest to the chal-

lenges in encourag-

ing children to eat healthily,

including incorporating plenty

of fruits and vegetables into

their daily diets.

Children tend to become

picky eaters for a number of

reasons, according to the

UCSF Benioff Children's

Hospital. Some children are

just naturally more sensitive to

taste, texture and smell of some

foods. Others may learn their

picky eating from parents who

pick and choose among their

meals. Still other children learn

to be selective through bribes

and punishments around meal-

time.

However, there needn't

been fussing and feuding over

food choices -- particularly pro-

duce -- when parents employ a

few creative ideas to entice

children to dig into healthy

foods.

1.Ask for your child's help:

Have your child ride along to

the grocery store and take an

active role into picking out

healthy foods that he or she

may be willing to try. Most

nutrition experts find that if

children take an interest in

what they will be eating, and

are instrumental in making

some choices, they will have a

higher rate of eating those

meals and foods.

2.Understand your child's eat-

ing habits: Some children will

eat the crown of broccoli but

leave aside the stems. There are

kids that will eat anything as

long as it's dunked in ketchup.

They may enjoy pears as long as

they are cut up into pieces with

the skin removed. Pay atten-

tion to how your child likes to

eat the food and present it that

way. It could mean fewer argu-

ments at the dinner table.

3.Explore new flavor combina-

tions: Oftentimes mixing cer-

tain flavor combinations can

entice children to eat foods

they may have never consid-

ered trying. Just think about

the popularity of fruit juices

mixed with vegetable purees.

Some children have an inclina-

tion toward favorite flavors or

just can benefit from a little

variety, which can sometimes

prove challenging when pro-

duce is out of season. Try

Grapple(R) brand apples,

which combine the fresh,

familiar flavor of Washing-ton

apples with the aroma and taste

of concord grapes. Through a

patented process, premium

Washing-ton State apples are

infused with grape flavor to cre-

ate a product that "Crunches

like an Apple, Tastes like a

Grape(TM)." The health ben-

efits of Grapples are just the

same as other variety of apples,

and there is no artificial ingre-

dients added or genetic alter-

ing. The process of making

them does not add any extra

sugar, calories, carbohydrates or

anything else; in fact the apple

maintains its natural supply of

vitamins, minerals, nutrients,

and fiber. Parents can rest

assured that all ingredients

have been approved by the

USDA and the FDA.

4.Try creative presentations:

Simply presenting the foods in

a unique way can make them

fun to eat. Try making fruit cre-

ations, such as "snowmen" out

of stacked grapes, or orange and

peach skewers. Children may

be more inclined to drinking

fruit smoothies mixed with

yogurt, or giving foods fun

names, such as banana bombs,

which are just chunks of

banana rolled in honey and

granola. All it may take is cre-

ating a fruit face on a plate with

different fruits resembling fea-

tures. Try kiwi eyes, Grapple

slices for a mouth, a blueberry

nose, or whatever you come up

with.

5.Be patient with new foods: It

can take a few attempts and

repeated exposure to get chil-

dren to try new foods, says the

Mayo Clinic. Serve new foods

along with children's favorite

foods, like Grapple slices added

to a peanut butter sandwich.

More information is avail-

able by calling 1-800-232-2636

or visiting www.grapplefruits

.com and Facebook at

http://www.facebook.com/Grap

plebrandapples. Grapple brand

apples are available in many

grocery stores nationwide from

October through May.

Here are more ideas about

incorporating these apples in

tasty snacks.

Crunch Grapple Slices

Core, cut and slice 2

Grapples, crush 1/2 c of your

favorite cereal like Chex or

Rice Krispies, mix 1 tea-

spoons packed brown sugar

and 2 tablespoons peanut

butter together. Spread the

brown sugar and peanut but-

ter onto Grapple slices and

roll in cereal.

Grapple Kabobs

Core, quarter and cube a

Grapple. Slice some cheese

into similarly sized cubes.

Skewer the apples and cheese

alternately on toothpicks,

adding a raisin or other dried

fruit. If packing for school

lunch, dip the apples into a lit-

tle lemonade first to keep them

from turning brown.

Dried Grapples

You can easily dry your own

apples without any preserva-

tives. Cut a Grapple into 1/4inch thick slices. Dip them into

a bowl of lemon water or

lemonade. Spread out on a

metal rack and set into a warm

oven (180 F) for two or three

hours. Turn off the oven and let

them cool.

Baked Grapples

Place a cored apple in a but-

tered ramekin. Add 1 tea-

spoon of butter, 1 teaspoon of

brown sugar and a 1/4 tea-

spoon of cinnamon into the

center hole. Bake at 350

degrees for about 45 minutes.

Cool for 10 minutes.

Homeowners often

look to make im-

provements on their

homes to advance aesthetics,

save money or make their

homes more energy efficient.

What they may not know is

that certain home improve-

ments may qualify them for

manufacturer or energy sup-

plier rebates and even federal

tax credits that can help a

person save even more.

Not all products are eli-

gible each year, so it's benefi-

cial to know what tax incen-

tives are out there regarding

home retrofits. Here are

some programs to keep in

mind.

U.S. residents who

made home improvements in

2011 may be eligible for tax

credits when filing a 2011 tax

return. Installation and

replacement of biomass

stoves, HVAC systems, insu-

lation, metal and asphalt

roofs, nonsolar water heatersand windows/doors can earn

a person up to 10 percent of

the cost, up to $500, or a spe-

cific amount from $50 to

$300. Improvements must

have been done to an exist-

ing home and principal resi-

dence by December 31, 2011.Federal tax credits for

2012 include geothermal

heat pumps. These are simi-

lar to ordinary heat pumps,

but use the ground instead of

outside air to provide heat-

ing, air conditioning and, in

most cases, hot water. Use of

small residential wind tur-

bines and solar energy sys-

tems, including solar water

heaters and photovoltaicpanels, are also eligible.

These tax credits offer 30

percent of the cost of the

renovation with no upper

limit.

Visit http://Energy.gov

/savings to determine anyadditional rebate and savings

programs that may be offered

in your state. Homeowners

looking to do improvements

can go online or consult with

a tax professional to deter-

mine which improvements

may be eligible for tax credits

or incentives. With the ener-

gy saved and the credit, it

could add up to considerable

savings on the new product.

W

hether the kids

have all grown up

and moved out or

if the kids are on the way andit's time to expand a living

area, building a new home is

an exciting, yet often agoniz-

ing, experience. The reasons

for building a new home are

many, but regardless of the

reason, the process of choos-

ing a builder should remain

the same.

Andrew Nadalin, presi-

dent of Pace 2000 Inc. and a

fourth generation builder andcraftsmen, offers the following

advice to prospective home-

owners with their eyes set on

building a dream home to call

their own.

Look for a builder with a

solid reputation. A builder's

reputation speaks volumes,

but it doesn't have to speak

for itself. That's because a

builder who has spent years

providing personal service,innovative design and quality

workmanship will no doubt

have a host of happy former

customers ready and willing

to offer their input. If during

the interview process a

builder appears reticent to

share his work or experiences

with previous customers, this

should be a red flag.

Reputable builders will be

proud of their work and morethan willing to show it off.

Find a builder who is flexi-

ble. You will be paying to

build your home, not the

builder's home. A buildershould be flexible and ready

and willing to meet your

needs, no matter how unique

they might be.

Look for a builder who does

more than build. A good

builder should do more than

just build. A builder should

provide a network of qualified

professionals to make the

process go more smoothly.

This network should includereal estate and building con-

sultants, interior designers,

architects and engineers. Such

connections can provide

peace of mind and will also

illustrate that a builder is both

respected in the community

and is intent on ensuring your

home becomes the dream

home you envision it to be.

Don't build on the cheap.

Buyers who plan to build theirown home are in the unique

position to ensure their home

is as safe and high-quality as

possible. This isn't always the

case when buying a resale, so

make the most of your oppor-

tunity and use only top-of-

the-line construction materi-

als and features and choose a

builder with experience in

working with such materials

and features. Building on thecheap could prove disastrous

in the not too distant future,

so don't sacrifice on qualitywhen building a new home.

selecting the right builder is

How to choose a builder



24/32

On St. Patrick's Day,

have a little fun in

with a traditional

Irish twist. Whether you're

Irish or not, enjoy the festiv-

ities with some entertain-

ment and food.

Because green is the

color of choice on this festive

day, one of the easiest ways

to celebrate in the Irish style

is to incorporate the color in

as many ways as possible --

even in food. Course after

course and meal after meal

you can add a hint of green

to the foods your family

enjoys. With a little bottle of

green food coloring, it's

amazing what you can

achieve.

Breakfast Ideas:

Tint milk green, whether in

a glass or in a bowl of cereal.

(Serve with "Lucky Charms"

perhaps?)

Channel your inner Dr.

Seuss by turning scrambled

eggs into "green eggs and

ham."

Make a green smoothie

with yogurt, juice and a

banana, with a few drops of

coloring added.

Butter toast with green-

tinted butter.

Lunch Ideas:

Make pizza or pasta with a

green pesto sauce.

Serve olive loaf instead of

bologna in a sandwich. It has

circles of green olives

throughout.

Make sure kids' juice boxes

are a green-colored variety.

Create a fruit salad with

mostly green fruits, such as

green grapes, kiwis, honey-dew melon, and green apples.

Baked potatoes topped with

green-tinted sour cream and

chives will be a winner.

Dinner Ideas:

A vegetable medley of

green veggies, like spinach,

broccoli, asparagus, and more

can be served as a side dish or

mixed as a casserole.

While corned beef and cab-

bage are traditional Irish

dishes, tint the cabbage

green for a little more flair.

Green food coloring addedto mashed potatoes can liven

mealtime up.

Make homemade Irish soda

bread or another bread to

serve at dinner and add green

food coloring to the dough.

Beverages:

What would St. Patrick's

Day be without a green glassof beer? For the kids, tint gin-

ger ale or a lemon-lime soda

green.

Create a green cocktail

using Bailey's Irish Cream

liqueur.

Dessert Ideas:

Turn ice cream or milk-

shakes green using mint-fla-

vored ice cream

Add green sugar sprinklesto cookies and cakes.

Bake chocolate chip cook-

ies using green M&M can-

dies, instead of chips.

Fill cream puffs with green-

colored cream.

When you think of all

the foods you can turn green

or are naturally that color,

your St. Patrick's Day can

truly be filled with emerald

magic.

Turn St. Patrick Day meals a little greener

For many years the clas-

sic food pyramid has

been the method by

which many people plan

their healthy eating goals.Recently the U.S.

Department of Agriculture

modified the food pyramid,

transforming it into a differ-

ent symbol altogether -- a

dinner plate.

The general basis of the"MyPlate" model generated

by the USDA is to give indi-

viduals a better understand-

ing of the ratios of food that

should fill their plates. While

the average guidelines for the

total amount of each food

group that should be eaten

varies according to age and

sex, the overall messages of

how much to fill a plate serve

as a good indicator for

healthier eating.Taking a small dinner

plate, half of the plate should

be filled with fruits and veg-

etables, with a greater

emphasis on vegetables.

Slightly less than one-fourth

of the other side of the plate

should consist of lean pro-

tein. The remaining open

portion of the plate should be

made up of grains -- with at

least half of those grainswhole grains. A cup of low-

or nonfat milk should be an

accompaniment to the meal

for dairy consumption.

Most people get their

recommended amount of oils

through many of the foods

that they eat, including fish

and nuts. The USDA advises

anywhere from 3 to 7 tea-

spoons of total oil consump-

tion daily, depending on age

and sex. Otherwise, caloricneed is surpassed and weight
