Irish Red Cabbage and Apples Recipe
A very delicious tart and tangy side dish to replace the standard boiled green cabbage.
Serves 4 to 6 healthy appetites.
1 Full head of fresh garden picked, red cabbage, cored and shredded 2 Tablespoons apple cider vinegar 5 Tablespoons granulated sugar. (Adjust to taste) 1/8 teaspoon cinnamon. 1/8 teaspoon ground cloves 1 teaspoon Sea salt Freshly ground mixed colored peppercorns to taste. 1/2 cup of fresh spring or tap water. 3/4 pound fresh orchard picked McIntosh apples, washed, peeled, cored, and quartered. (See Apple data below.) 1 each fresh orchard picked Red Delicious apple, washed, peeled, cored, and quartered. (See Apple data below.)
Preparation : In a large, deep "non-aluminum" heavy skillet or seasoned cast iron Dutch oven, combine the shredded cabbage, apple cider vinegar, cinnamon, cloves, sugar, sea salt, and fresh water. Bring to a gentle boil.
Place the quartered apples over the shredded red cabbage, cover the skillet, and cook this mixture gently for about 30 minutes, or until the red cabbage is tender and the apples have turned very soft into a pulp.
After cooking 20 minutes, partially uncover the skillet, so most of the cooking liquid evaporates.
Stir the delicious and tangy mixture, adjust the taste with seasoning .
Add more salt and freshly ground pepper as per taste.

Flatten Your Abs at Your Desk
If you're stuck behind your desk all day, this ab move is for you. It's quick, effective, and can be done from the seat of your chair.
Chair Lift: Sit up tall, shoulders back maintaining good posture. Slide to the end of your chair. Hands hold the arm-rests or sides of the chair. Slowly lift your knees up towards your chest engaging your abs. Remember to try to keep that back straight. Then slowly bring those legs down towards the ground. Repeat for 2 sets of 12.
Make it harder: As you lower your legs down towards the ground, keep your feet from fully touching, then lift them back up!

HEALTHY HUMOR, LAUGH IT UP |

St. Patrick's Day is here, you see. We'll pick some shamrocks, one, two, three. We'll count the leaves and look them over, And maybe find a four-leafed clover. I'll sew green buttons on my vest, Green for St. Patrick is the best. I'll wear a green hat, very high, And dance a jig--at least I'll try!
