My Go Red for Women Day isn't a day I can focus on much because of my work schedule/circumstances.
But Diane's noting of February as "American Heart Month" made me think ahead to a church event I have coming up on Sunday, February 11th and how I might enlist the energy and support of the members of my congregation.
Our annual dinner's that evening and, as one of the table hosts, it's my job to design a "theme" around which the group brings fun food and beverages for the evening's dinner. "Potluck with a theme", so to speak.
Well, I decided that "Healthy Hearts" will be my table's theme and the group is being encouraged to bring healthy dishes (not always the case in church events!) and I'm going to see if I can round up a portable defibrillator for the centerpiece!
I'm having a great time putting this together and thought I'd just share the activity with this group.

Great February idea, Mary. We can take healthy heart messages anywhere. If your table-mates need help in figuring out healthy dishes, I'm sure you know that the American Heart Association has lots of good cookbooks. For those who want to look on line, www.cookinglight.com is good also.
Have fun!
Diane
