A blog with an attitude is like a room with a view or a life with a purpose....it is not a necessity, in fact, we can live our lives quite happily without it, but it can also make our spirits soar and expand our horizons in ways that we could not have imagined.
So I have discovered some blogs with an attitude. They are inspirational, opinionated and entertaining with useful information about health, nutrition, food and a love of life. Cucina Nicolina gives us her tips for successful parties that sparkle; a great recipe for plum kuchen from veganyumyum and great tips on simplifying your life from Zen Habits. I have added these and many more to my blog list.
All of these blogs will provide us with insights and inspiration as we look at macrobiotics, health and nutrition from a fresh perspective. Of course, a strict macrobiotic diet can be great if you are sick but, I think, on this blog we are going to relax a little and look at other aspects of macrobiotics; we will expand the diet by looking at other traditions and cultures, we will look at eastern philosophies and their benefits, as well as trends that incorporate biodiversity and a more ecofriendly approach to our busy lives. We hope to have a blog with an attitude so stay tuned.
The holidays are over. We would like to say thank you for your support. It was a tough year for us, as it was for many small businesses, and we could not have made it without you. We now look forward to a New Year with exciting challenges and bright prospects.

High in fiber and flax and sweetened with organic agave nectar they are absolutely macrolicious This morning we made cashew/vanilla and granola/chocolate, two of our favorites. 
Every ten years or so, something happens that changes our whole perspective, essentially changing the way we live our lives. The downturn in the economy this past year is reshaping many of our lives. The effects will be long lasting for many of us. I would like to make the case that one of the outcomes of this downturn will be a renewed respect for the people and corporations that are upfront and honest with us; those that incorporate transparency into the way they do business.
