What's the price of your children's health... would you eat this for lunch?

Click photo to email your legislators today!
Congress is updating the Child Nutrition Act. Email your legislators to tell them you support helping schools serve real food.

America's children have never been fatter or sicker! Help children receive the food that will keep them healthy and active for the rest of their lives! Last time I checked, chocolate cow's milk has as much sugar as most candy bars. You've heard me say it before...the federal government sees "no nutritional value in water" and won't reimburse school lunch programs if they offer water as a beverage choice but they will for serving french fries.

Supermom takes the show on the road***

**

Arrived in NYC last evening at 6:00 PM. Can't beat the 4 hour train ride from Boston for $46 bucks. Plus, sharing a room with my BFF that's here at a conference. She secured the room using Priceline. To add a bed for me was $40 bucks total for two nights! Had an awesome meal at Rosa Mexicano (http://www.rosamexicano.com/)* - Pato en Salsa de Zarzamoras/Duck with Blackberry Sauce - Roasted duck breast served over mashed chile de arbol sweet potatoes, grilled asparagus and blackberry - chipotle sauce.

Big plans to work...work...work...this AM on the blog and other special projects (good thing it's raining out) and then head out to Chinatown for a massage/pressure point torture. (Don't think a four year old back/sciatica nerve problem will be solved in a day.)

*Mexicans have one of the lowest cancer rates in the world.

**Thanks Darren for the NYC photo that has been my desktop screen saver for over three years.
