We just interviewed Dr. Phil’s better half, Robin McGraw, who stopped by our site to talk about her latest book, What’s Age Got to Do with It?: Living Your Healthiest and Happiest Life
What I love about the book is that it covers every aspect of a woman’s life, from health, diet, fitness, hair, fashion and make-up. Robin’s decision to maintain a healthy lifestyle was caused after mother died of a heart attack at 58. While her mom put everyone else’s needs above her own, Robin realized that if you don’t take care of yourself, the people who eventually lose out are your family if your life is cut short by a disease or health issue that could have been avoided with preventative care.
For those of us battling the bulge, Robin offers a two week nutrition plan that’s sure to help us shed excess weight. Plus, she outlines her entire fitness routine with her personal trainer; and she shares the secret behind her flawless face. She has never had plastic surgery but does monthly medi-facials that stimulate her facial muscles and keep her skin looking fresh and youthful. She also drinks tons of water (which I totally need to do), stays out of the sun and now avoids sugar because she learned it not only makes you fat, but it causes wrinkles!
And she even shares a great hair story about Michael Bolton – but I don’t want to give everything away! Click on the link below as Robin shares her personal stories and advice about how to look great at any age.
The Passover Fave Five
Well, today’s the day. In less than eight hours, guests will start arriving in droves to partake in a festive meal at my house. And that’s just the first night…you see – we’ll be hosting round two tomorrow night which means I’m cooking up two turkeys this year and with the help of my mom, several favorite dishes that’ll have our guests asking for seconds and thirds. Today’s fave five will feature some of our favorite recipes, plus a sampling of our favorite Role Mommy recipes around the web. So without further ado, here’s the Passover Fave Five Recipe Guide:
1. Cooking a turkey? We’ve got you covered. If you search on Google right now, the top recipe that comes up is Elise’s Turkey Recipe. We don’t know Elise, but we’ve tried her recipe several times and we love it (as do our guests). So if you have no clue how to cook a turkey, have no fear, Elise is here!
2. Over at Self Made Mom, is an out of this world recipe for Matzoh Kugel. We’ll be trying that one out after we finish whipping up our morning matzoh brei!
3. Grandma Dora’s Matzoh Brei and Matzoh Pudding. For beginners, try the scrambled version and if you’re up for a challenge, go for the pudding!
