Food Revolution Day 2015 – Get Involved!

Food Revolution Day is here! Jamie Oliver and I share a passion “to create a strong sustainable movement to educate every child about food, inspire families to cook again, and empower people everywhere to fight obesity.”  Jamie’s childhood obesity statistic blows my mind.  “42 Million children, under the age of five are either overweight or obese.”  “Kids as young as eight years old are being diagnosed with type-2 diabetes. (it used to be a disease for people over 40yrs of age).”  It’s crazy.  Kids should be running, playing, and enjoying life.  They shouldn’t have to be worrying about a diet-related illness.
Food Revolution Day
I invite you to join the Food Revolution!  You can make a difference in your home and your community.  Here is how……………
 
Jamie Oliver Food Revolution Day
1.  Class, School, or Scouting Program involvement:  Check out the FRD (Food Revolution Day) website for everything you need to get your group involved.  There are lots of great downloadable resources including recipes and certificates.  Everything you need to create an event for your group.

2.  Virtual Food Revolution Day event sponsored by Juggling Real Food and Real Life:  I encourage you to share your healthy-eating tips and pictures of what you are eating on my Facebook page.  I would love to see your little ones” lunches, what you send to school in the lunchbox, healthy breakfasts, and healthy dinners. I will keep this open all weekend. Just post your pictures and tips to my wall and I will share them.  Let’s encourage others to eat healthy on Food Revolution Day and all year long.  If you are on Twitter make sure you use #FoodRevolutionDay and share your pictures.  You can use the same hashtag on Instagram and we can see your pictures there.

3.  Talk to your children and grandchildren: Use the materials you find on the FRD website and make the Squash It sandwich at home.  Talk with them about why eating healthy foods is so important.  You are still the biggest influence in your child’s life.  Teach them what a healthy lifestyle looks like.  Enjoy cooking and chatting as you prepare meals together.  Some of my favorite memories of my kids’ childhood will certainly be cooking together……dropped egg messes and all.
Fun egg messes. This is learning.
4. Sign the Petition:  If you haven’t already signed Jamie Oliver’s petition, I encourage you to do so.  Make your voice heard and let everyone know that food education is important.  Join the over 1 Million people from around the world who have signed this important Food Revolution Day petition.  Sign it.  Share it.  Hear more about the petition straight from Jamie here.

It’s always a fun day when my order from @grovec It’s always a fun day when my order from @grovecollaborative arrives. I don’t usually buy a ton of items all at once but I do purchase my favorites every month. I’m a big fan of the Grove products. This month I’m trying the organic peppermint blend tea. The mint and argan lip balm is my favorite. I also needed some more flour sack towels for my kitchen. My family loves all of the scents from @mrsmeyerscleanday and my daughter and I love the charcoal wipes from @yesto . Now to get this stuff put away and enjoy my cleaning. (Well as much as you can enjoy cleaning.) 😀 #cleaningmotivation #cleaningtips #beauty #jugglingrealfoodandreallife #saturday #saturdayvibes
