Now that Passionate Posts Contest 2009 is over aside from the voting (and make sure to vote!), I’ve decided to tell you where the $100 prize money for the winner of the contest has really come from.
I visited the U.S. a few months ago. When there, I noticed a little sticker on the Reese’s peanut butter cups saying that there was a lottery with cash prizes. This, coupled with the fact that Reese’s peanut butter cups aren’t sold in Israel was just too much for me to resist the temptation. (Don’t worry, I later recovered from the relapse and didn’t even finish all of the Reese’s that I had bought.)
Amazingly, I actually won an $100 cash prize in their lottery. Here’s the picture of the winning certificate:

 
After contemplating what to do with the cash, it dawned on me that there was no better way to use money given by Hershey’s […]

Shepherd’s Pie is comfort food at it’s best. Flavorful ground meat is mixed with a simple blend of peas, carrots and green beans, and in the recipe Cherie Randall submitted for the Primal Blueprint Cookbook Contest, topped with a creamy layer of buttery cauliflower puree. Once you’ve tasted the smooth texture and rich flavor of cauliflower whipped with butter you’ll want to start eating it straight out of bowl with a spoon. But for this recipe in particular it’s worth waiting to experience the whole dish together. Alone, ground meat and frozen vegetables may not seem like anything special. But when combined with the cauliflower puree into Shepherd’s Pie, the result is the type of home cooked meal all of us wish was waiting for us at the end of a long day.

Ingredients:

1 head cauliflower
2 tablespoons butter
1-3 tablespoons cream (optional)
salt & pepper taste

3 tablespoons olive oil
1 […]

The basis of Tabata Training is 4 minutes of intense interval training/circuit training. What you are doing is taking an exercise we’ll use sprints as an example here. Sprint as hard as you can for 20 seconds Walk for 10 seconds Repeat 7 more times for a total of 8 sets. So what you have is a total of 4 minutes workout time. Tabata Training can be done with a number of different exercises the idea is to use an exercise that gets the whole body involved or at least the major muscle groups.Tabata Training can be done with Barbells, Dumbells, Kettlebells or just Bodyweight exercises. I’ll give you some other exercises and routines to try in a minute but first let me give you some background and how Tabatas work. Tabata Training was developed by Izumi Tabata (imagine that) at the National Institute of Fitness and Sports in Tokyo, […]

I am doing an intense exercise routine in my apartment this winter. One of the days is such a pain in the butt that I really have to psych myself up to mentally prepare for it. The big challenge I have found with doing exercise at home is the ability to go easy on myself or finding an excuse to cut my workout short. It is much harder to justify cutting a workout short, when you drive to a gym. I'd like to discuss this a bit as well as get your comments and tips that you may have regarding exercising at home.

[The benefits of working out at home is the time you save. The downside is that you are the only person holding yourself accountable. It is so easy to simply find an excuse to cut your workout short, skip sets, etc.]
