My husband and I love to try new recipes, meeting new people, and entertaining so we thought we would offer a meetup for people who share the same interests. We can meet up once or twice a month for a fun dinner party in our home in Fairfield. The menu will feature recipes that are consistent with a healthy lifestyle. We are by no means experts in healthy living we simply strive to make healthy choices and make small changes as we go. So whether you are a health and fitness guru or getting healt …

The "Dancing with the Stars" series has sprouted new and enduring interest in ballroom dancing; health practitioners are promoting dancing as a healthy exercise for physical fitness as well as prevention of dementia and Alzheimers.  I remember the joy at age 11 learning the 2-step (poor man's fox trot?) to "You Belong to Me" and the hesitation waltz to "Tennessee Waltz" at Francisco Jr. High in San Francisco; later the thrill of "getting it" after learning to jitterbug, and still later the mambo …

Calling all Trail Runners! We love running on the dirt. Trail running is way more fun than running on the pavement, around noisy cars and unhealthy exhaust. We get to be one with nature. Hills and mountains are our friends. The trails allow less impact on the body than running on pavement and we use more muscles groups which makes us stronger. Trails also improve our balance and agility, activating our core muscles even more than running on flat surfaces. Time flies when we are trail running! We …
