Wear Red, Eat Healthy Today

M. Gustafson Gervasi and family at the 2012 Annual Heart Walk, Madison, Wis.

February first is Go Red Day thanks to the American Heart Associations efforts to increase awareness about the seriousness of heart disease for all Americans, and women especially.  In addition to sporting red gear today, feed yourself a heart healthy meal.  When not practicing law I can often be found in the kitchen, preparing meals that I write about on another blog, Frugal Upside.  Here is a link to a weekly favorite in our home, Split Pea Soup.  Full of fiber and protein, plus it costs a few dollars to make a huge pot.  Perfect for Go Red Day, and a cold February evening in Wisconsin.

Thanks for reading, and I'll be back next week with more thoughts on illness, death and taxes for the middle class.
