Greetings from Pittsburgh, Pennsylvania ! Things have been busy. I am still a working mom of three, working full time who is trying to make a difference. I do a lot of things and try to be present so that I can learn from them. I share them on this blog so that we can learn together.

If you choose sashimi instead of the rolls you have a low carb meal. You get slightly tipsy that way, but you don't pack on the pounds. I didn't even need an article to teach me that!:-)
