I pretty much went on and on about John Adams but he wasn’t alone in founding the nation. Today I give you George Washington. He pretty much grew what he ate. Way ahead of his time considering the new vegetable garden at the White House this summer! George Washington- Of course Mr. Washington was our [...]

It’s a 21 day cleanse that focuses on mostly eating veggies or something, I don’t really know. But the diet is based on the book Quantum Wellnessby Kathy Freston. [...]
