Over the past years Ihave continued to worktowards true pension re-form along with theCommission and Staff.Management employeeswere moved from a De-fined Benefit plan to aDefined Contributionplan. We negotiatedwith the general employ-ees to provide that allnew employees moveinto a 401 defined con-tribution plan. Employ-ees in the existingpension remained.Cities must continue toretired employees’ bene-fits and must insure thepension plan is funded.While the pension stillrequires contributions,the long term unfundedliabilities have been ad-dressed by replacingDefined Benefits withDefined Contributions.
Since 2009 manycities and other govern-ment agencies havebeen faced with ad-dressing large unfundedpension liabilities. Whenthe markets fell therewas never relief to pen-sion systems. Hallan-dale Beach has beenfortunate to have re-serve funds to get usthrough the tough econ-omy. The current trend
is not sustainable andover the past years con-tributions have beenwell over 10 million an-nually. That is why wehave focused on reform.Many individuals havebeen moving towardsDC plans for all employ-ees. Our Commissionagrees that pension re-form is necessary, butthat reform must be rea-sonable.
The past two years wehave been working withthe Police Union to-wards reasonable pen-sion reform. Thenegotiations s involvedgive and take from bothsides. The contractagreement reached wasculminations of workingwith an actuary to effec-tuate changes that will lcreate a sustainablepension system. Thetotal saving as a resultof these reforms are 2.8million dollars annually.
The following is the of-ficial press notificationthat was provided to allCommissioners to sharewith the press. In orderto be clear I wanted toshare the document inits entirety. Pensionfunding and planningare complex and all toooften they are not cov-ered fully in the regularpress. We hope that ourcollaboration will be-come a model for otheragencies.
Contract Period: Oc-tober 1, 2012 – Sep-tember 30, 2015
The City and the PBA
negotiation team havenegotiated a collectivebargaining agreementwhich focused on threemajor issues. The mostimportant one is PEN-SION REFORM. PENSION REFORM
- The City hired an actu-arial consultant to helpdetermine meaningfulpension reforms that willensure plan sustainabil-ity. According to thestudies that were made,the actuary identifiedfour areas that will pro-vide substantial pensionsavings for the City aswell as provide sustain-ability of the plan. Thetotal savings for imple-menting these changesare estimated to be$2.938M annually.
The first of the agreedupon pension reformchanges involves the in-troduction of a $95,000cap on the lifetime pen-sion benefit that a re-tiree will receive.
The second agreedupon pension reformchange takes away thepension cost of living al-lowance (COLA) that anemployee would havereceived while in the De-ferred Retirement Op-tion Plan (DROP).
The third agreed uponpension reform changesintroduces a second tierpension plan for employ-ees hired after March20th, 2013. This secondtier pension plan offers areduced annual multi-plier (3% versus 3.2%),different final averagecompensation (average
of the last five (5) yearsof work, versus the aver-age of the last (2) yearsof work), no COLA forthe pension (2% annu-ally), and no DROP pro-gram (five (5) yearprogram).
The fourth change wasdiscussed during a jointpension workshop withthe City and the policeand fire labor unionsand involved changingan outdated actuarialcost method that theCity’s pension board hasadopted many yearsago. This change wasNOT a subject of collec-tive bargaining butrather was a changethat was advocated forby the city and unionrepresentatives on thepension board and ulti-mately implemented. 401A PLAN – As a
means to continue withpension reform and tointroduce a hybrid optionthat provides an addi-tional retirement saving
option at no long termrisk to the city, a 401aDefined Contributionplan option was negoti-ated. This provides anopportunity for bargain-ing members that wishto save additionalmoney for retirement tovoluntarily participate ina 401a Defined Contri-bution plan. The City willcontribute a match of1%, 2%, or 3% basedon the employee selec-tion. (estimated to cost$173k per year startingFiscal Year 2013/2014)
WAGES – For wages,the City and the Unionagreed on the followingcost of living al-lowances:Effective upon ratifica-tion, current City PoliceOfficers will receive a3% wage increase totheir base salary, andwithin 30 days of con-tract ratification, currentCity Police Officers willreceive a lump sum pay-ment equal to 3% of the
base hourly wages, plusovertime, they respec-tively earned from Octo-ber 1, 2011 to the dateof ratification. Effectiveupon ratification, currentCity Police Sergeantswill receive a 2% wageincrease to their basesalary, and within 30days of contract ratifica-tion, current City PoliceSergeants will receive alump sum paymentequal to 2% of the basehourly wages, plus over-time, they respectivelyearned from October 1,2011 to the date of ratifi-cation. (estimated tocost $241k)
Effective October 1,2013, all bargaining unitmembers will receive a2.5% wage increase.(estimated to cost$152k)
Effective October 1,2014, all bargaining unitmembers will receive a2.5% wage increase.(estimated to cost$160k)

hcare Systems, Kingsleyhas combined his viva-cious personality and ex-ceptional leadership skillsto rise through the educa-tional ranks beginning asa teacher at Olsen MiddleSchool in 1998 teachinglanguage Arts, geometryand algebra becoming In-tern Assistant Principalfive years later. He servedas Intern Principal atApollo Middle School inHollywood during 2008-2009 before appointed In-tern Principal at McNicolMiddle School in Holly-wood during 2009-2010.Brian’s latest assignmentcame in 2010 where hestarted as the Intern Prin-cipal at Gulfstream MiddleSchool and promoted toPrincipal in 2011.
Kingsley is humbledwith this latest accoladegiving kudos to his ac-complished staff memberslike Stacie Conner whowas recognized asTeacher of the Year atGulfstream Middle Schoolfor her exceptional workas a peer counselor teach-ing students to resolveproblems in an amicablefashion rather thanthrough violence and amember of the S.T.E.M.Academy and DesireeFelder who was awardedSchool related employeeof the year as an adminis-trative assistant and fi-nally, Steven Carlo whoalso teaches at theS.T.E.M. Academy at theschool while also educat-ing the children in Ameri-can and World History. Mr.Carlo is extremely altruis-tic serving as the Chair forthe Hallandale BeachRelay for Life to benefitthe American Cancer Soci-ety for three years.
Principal Kingsleybrought the S.T.E.M. (Sci-ence, Technology, Engi-neering and Mathematics)program to his school ashe is a visionary realizingthat many future employ-ment opportunities will beafforded to those withthese skills. One hundredfifty children are enrolledin this program and at arecent STEM Day at Hal-landale High School, hisstudents displayed robotsthat they constructed
which will assist seniorcitizens among othertasks.
Hallandale Beach is nostranger for hiring out-standing faculty for theirschools as Tony Dutra, areading teacher at theHallandale Adult Commu-nity Center was bestowedBroward County Teacherof the Year honors in 2010and Davien FernandesJones, an educator of so-cial science at HallandaleHigh School was a finalistfor the same recognition
in 2009.Brian Kingsley gradu-
ated from PennsylvaniaState University and com-pleted his Master’s Degreeat Florida Atlantic Univer-sity with a concentrationin Educational Leadership.Kingsley’s achievementspermeate throughout thecommunity and not justwithin the classroom.
On any given morning,Brian can be found outsidethe school as children ar-rive directing traffic andensuring that the studentsget to class. He was cred-ited with organizing a verysuccessful and visible antibullying campaign thatconcluded with a huge as-sembly at Hallandale HighSchool with speechesfrom school resource offi-cers like Officer Vera andOfficer McKenzie from theHallandale Beach PoliceDepartment on the meritsof staying in school andclear from gangs conclud-ing with 300 people
marching through the citywith signs promoting theirissues.
Kingsley credits StacieConner (whose mother isa very well-known volun-teer in the communitynamed Barbara South-wick) with developing ananti-bullying curriculumthat is used throughoutBroward County with thetheme “Kindness is price-less.”
Each year HallandaleBeach Commissioner BillJulian organizes a fooddrive to support the Hal-landale Beach Food Pantryand lays down the gaunt-let among Hallandale Ele-mentary, Hallandale High
School, Hallandale AdultCommunity Center andGulfstream Middle for theschool that collects themost food. Rallied by Prin-cipal Kingsley, GulfstreamMiddle School has beenchampion for the past twoyears.
Brian leads by exampledisplaying the importanceof giving back to the com-munity as he is a boardmember for the HallandaleBeach Police AthleticLeague and a member ofthe Kiwanis Club of Hal-landale Beach. The Kiwa-nis club has proudly givendictionaries to his thirdgraders the past few yearsand donated six dozen
uniform shirts this year forthe students.
Gulfstream MiddleSchool has acceleratedmore students into highschool level math than anyother middle school andunder Kingsley’s guidanceand infectious charisma,enrollment has grown bytwenty percent at Gulf-stream Middle School.
Congratulations Princi-pal Kingsley for a well de-served honor.

supported it, backed itand still believe that inthe right financial cli-mate, could be a hugeattraction.I was always taught to
think outside of the box,and while many trial anderror ideas will ultimatelybe the great decisionmaker for many of thestores, there is a rightcombination that couldmake this work - yearround.Like Mardi Gras
Casino in HallandaleBeach - Gulfstream hasalso been creative aboutattracting people. Con-certs have always beenimportant. So havestreet festivals and artshows. But nothing willdo more for the facilitythan this weekend. If you've never been to
a Florida Derby, I cantell you first-hand - assomeone who has beento at least 30 - this hasnow become THE event.It's great to be outdoors,eat some tremendousfood, enjoy an atmos-
phere at this first classand upscale facility andsee the horses that willbe on TV over the nextthree months as well asthe prestigious KentuckyDerby."We came last year
and enjoyed it so much,"said Laurie McNeal ofHollywood. "The onlything I can tell you is getthere early becauseparking is crazy. Thatplace fills up."
DERBY LORESince 1967, the
Florida Derby has beena great indicator of whatthoroughbred will dowell in the race for theTriple Crown. In 1968,Forward Pass won theFlorida Derby, KentuckyDerby and Preaknessbefore finishing secondin the Belmont. The1979 race saw Spectac-ular Bid use the FloridaDerby as a springboardto wins at the KentuckyDerby and the Preak-ness, before dropping tothird at the Belmont.
In 1981, PleasantColony, a fifth placeFlorida Derby finisherwon the first two legs of
the Triple Crown, only tofinish third in the Bel-mont. Swale, in 1984,won the Florida Derbyand Kentucky Derby aswell as the Belmont, butslipped to seventh.The Florida Derby has
had some great thor-oughbreds over the past20 years. Some of thememorable horses in-cluded Unbridled (1990)- Florida Derby and Ken-tucky Derby winner,Thunder Gulch (1995) -After winning the FloridaDerby and KentuckyDerby, finished third atthe Preakness, but re-bounded to win the Bel-mont.In 2001, it was Monar-
chos that won theFlorida Derby and Ken-tucky Derby, EmpireMaker in 2003 won theFlorida Derby and theBelmont and Barbaro(2006) - which won theFlorida Derby and Ken-
tucky Derby beforepulling up in Preakness.

During this week,the City will highlight theprograms that providemuch needed assis-tance to communities byconducting activities thatwill showcase com-pleted projects and pro-vide educationpertaining to programsand public services.
This nationally cele-brated week is a brilliantopportunity to provide acommunitywide educa-tional forum regardingthe benefits of this fund-ing while celebrating theCity’s accomplishmentsin supporting housingand economic develop-ment initiatives.
Elected officials ortheir designees, andrepresentatives of theCommunity Develop-
ment Advisory Board,the Hollywood HousingAuthority and theBroward Alliance forNeighborhood Develop-ment will tour some ofthe City’s housing andeconomic developmentprojects on Tuesday,April 2. They also willparticipate in a show-case at City Hall illus-trating the benefits ofthe funding as it relatesto public services, hous-ing and economic devel-opment initiatives.
On Wednesday, April3, Mayor Peter Boberand the City Commis-sion will issue a procla-mation supporting theCommunity Develop-ment Block Grant(CDBG) Program, theHOME Investment Part-nerships Program(HOME) and StateHousing Initiative Part-nership (SHIP) Program.Additionally, several ofthe City’s community
partners will showcasethe benefit of theiragency’s services andthere will be displaysthroughout the week inthe second floor lobby ofCity Hall for the public toview.
Enacted into law in1974, the CDBG is theprincipal federal pro-gram that providesgrants to states, cities,and counties to deviseneighborhood ap-proaches that will im-prove the physical,economic and socialconditions in communi-ties. It is administerednationally by the U.S.Department of Housingand Urban Development(HUD). The HOME pro-gram provides grants tostates, cities, and coun-ties to create safe, sani-tary, and affordablehousing conditions incommunities nationwide.SHIP funds have beenused to finance emer-
gency repairs, new con-struction, home rehabili-tation, down paymentand closing cost assis-tance, acquisition ofproperty for affordablehousing, and housingcounseling.
2013 marks the 39thanniversary of theCDBG program and the22nd anniversary of theHOME program. Bothprograms have facedsignificant cuts in thepast two years, withCDBG experiencing a26 percent reductionand HOME a 48 percentcut since FY2010. InFY2010, CDBG wasfunded nationally at $3.9billion and HOME wasfunded at $1.8 billion.CDBG is now funded at$2.9 billion nationallyand HOME at $1 billion.SHIP funding has beencut by the State ofFlorida. However, theLegislature is consider-ing distributing SHIPfunds for the 2013-2014fiscal years. These pro-grams are needed morethan ever to help ourmost vulnerable citizensand improve the overallcondition of our neigh-borhoods. NationalCommunity Develop-ment Week will be anexciting way to celebratesuccesses and encour-age the continued fund-ing of these necessaryprograms.

During the test at theHumane Society ofBroward County,Bellavia was in fre-quent close contactwith Jada's face, puther fingers in thedog's mouth, testedher for food aggres-sion, pinched herbody to see if she haddiscomfort anywhereand performed a re-straining hold on thedog to see how long itwould take for Jada topull away. "It was likesugar melting in yourhands" said Bellavia
of how Jada re-sponded to being re-strained. "She justleaned against mybody, gave me a fewkisses and stayed stilluntil I released her."
"Jada epitomizesthe breed and she willbe a great ambassa-dor in the community.We want to educatepeople on pit bulls ingeneral. We also wantto help change theperception of thisbreed." After success-fully passing the Ani-mal Assisted Therapy
evaluation, the 80pound, white and graycolored pit bull wasgiven a volunteerbadge along with agreen and white vestthat was embroideredwith "Pet TherapyDog" and "I love work-ing for hugs andkisses" on each side.Jada pranced aroundand wagged her tail inexcitement, almost asif she knew what shehad accomplished.
"Jada has a veryimportant job in ourcommunity as she vis-its schools in BrowardCounty and teacheschildren about petsafety, bite prevention,the importance ofspaying/neuteringyour pet amongstother topics. Jada, isthe spokes dogagainst Breed SpecificLegislation and with
her help we are ableto show the commu-nity what a loving,sweet, smart, goofyand fun dog this breedis" said Bellavia.

(BPT) - If you're justentering retirement,chances are you havemany years of goodhealth and independ-ence ahead. But thenormal aging processstill brings limitationsthat we all need to pre-pare for - such as slowerreaction times and de-clining vision - whichcan lead to accidentsand injuries.
Many accidents arepreventable though, andyou can take simplemeasures to enhanceyour safety as you age.
IN YOUR HOMEFalls are one of the
greatest age-relatedrisks inside the home.One in three adults olderthan 65 falls each year,and the risk of injuryrises with age, accord-ing to the NationalSafety Council. Manyfalls are caused by haz-ards that are easy toavoid if you know whatto look for.
To prevent tripping,eliminate clutter onfloors, remove throwrugs or tack them downwith double-sided tape,and make sure electricaland phone cords arekept out of the way. Youmight need to rearrangesome of your furnitureas well, to ensure thatthere are unobstructedpathways into and out ofevery room.
In the bathroom, usea nonslip rubber mat orstick nonslip adhesivestrips to the bottom ofthe bathtub or shower.You may also want toconsider installing grabbars. Keep a night lighton in the bathroom atnight, and remove anyobstacles in the pathfrom the bedroom to thebathroom.
If your house hasstairs, make sure theyhave good lighting (withlight switches at both thetop and bottom of thestaircase) and sturdyhandrails (preferably onboth sides). Attachingnonslip rubber treads isa good idea if the stepsare potentially slippery.
The kitchen presents aslightly different set of
potential hazards. To re-duce the risk that you'llcut or burn yourself,make sure there isbright, nonglare lightingover all food preparationareas. Also, it's better tostore sharp knives in aknife block or rack ratherthan loose in a drawer.And make sure any haz-ardous substances(such as cleaning sup-plies) are well markedand stored in a placewhere they're unlikely tobe misidentified or comein contact with food.
OUTDOORSTo make your yard
safer, replace or repairany broken or loosepaving stones and clearthe walkways of over-grown branches or anyother potential trippinghazards. Make sure allhandrails are firm andsecure. Mark the edgesof steps with reflectivetape and check thatthere is enough light tosee obstacles at night.
You might want to con-sider a timer or motion-detector light near thefront door so you don'thave to fumble with yourkeys in the dark. And,just in case, make sureyour house number isvisible and lighted soemergency personnelcan find it quickly.
IN THE CARTo increase your
safety on the road, haveyour vision and hearingchecked every year,and, if you need them,wear your glasses orhearing aid when driv-ing. Know your limita-tions and avoid
situations that make youuncomfortable - for ex-ample, you may decideto avoid driving at nightor on extremely busyroads.
Have your carchecked regularly by atrusted mechanic tomake sure it stays ingood working order, and
keep a cellphone withyou so you're preparedin case of an emer-gency, which can't beemphasized enough. It'sgood to have a cell-phone on hand for anytype of emergency - notjust in the car. In a 2011survey by the Pew Re-search Center, 40 per-
cent of respondents whoowned cellphones saidthat in the past 30 daysthey had found them-selves in an emergencysituation in which havingtheir phone with themhelped.
Knowing that you cancall for help at any timeprovides great peace ofmind, and a cellphonedoesn't need to be com-plicated or expensive.Consumer Cellular(www.consumercellu-lar.com), the exclusivewireless provider forAARP members, is onecarrier that provides no-contract, cost-effectivewireless service andcellphones. Their senior-friendly DoroPhoneEasy 618 is aneasy-to-use featurephone with a one-touchemergency button and afeature to store all yourI.C.E. (in case of emer-gency) information.
Most accidents don'tjust happen. If you fol-low these simple safetytips, you'll decrease yourrisk of injury - and in-crease your chances ofenjoying a long, happyretirement in the comfortof your own home.

Reinforce the Flu Shot With AHCC Mushrooms Says New Study(NewsUSA) - As the flu pandemic rages throughout the U.S., the question on everyone's mind
is what they can do to protect themselves. The flu shot is usually on top of the list, but even thosewho have been vaccinated are susceptible. So, what else can you do that has been clinicallyproven to work? Some experts are now turning to an unexpected source: Japanese medicinalmushrooms.
A new human clinical study published in the journal "Nutrition Research" says that "AHCC" -- anatural extract from the roots of Japanese medicinal mushrooms -- can boost the effectiveness ofthe flu shot.
The researchers followed 30 healthy adults receiving the flu shot, half of whom took AHCC inaddition to getting vaccinated. Three weeks later, the group taking the AHCC supplement werefound to have higher levels of infection-fighting white blood cells than the vaccine-only group.AHCC users also had significantly improved antibody titers-- a measurement of how much antibody an organism has produced -- to the influenza B virus.Since stimulating antibody production is the main purpose of the vaccination, the study demon-strated that AHCC worked synergistically with the flu shot.
"This collection data is promising as it suggests that supplementing with AHCC can help boostimmunity and help make the vaccine more effective," says Elizabeth Gardner of Michigan StateUniversity, who was the paper's lead author.
These findings are consistent with the previous study, conducted at Yale Medical School, whichshowed that AHCC improved immune response in healthy elderly subjects. Pre-clinical researchhas demonstrated that AHCC is effective against a wide variety of viral infections, including theH1N1 influenza virus (common flu), the H5N1 avian influenza (bird flu), the West Nile virus andseveral types of hospital-borne infections, such as MRSA.
AHCC is available from numerous nutritional supplement brands at health foodstores nationwide. To learn more about this natural compound, you can visit
www.AHCCresearch.org.
(BPT) - Family mem-bers can have manythings in common, in-cluding physical charac-teristics and personalitytraits. While some traitsare obvious, like havingred hair or blue eyes,some shared traits arenot as obvious, such asthe risk for developing acommon medical condi-tion, like high choles-terol, or a rare disease.
A rare disease is onethat affects fewer than200,000 people, andabout 30 million Ameri-cans have one of 7,000known rare diseases.Because about 80 per-cent of rare diseasesare genetic in origin,knowing one's familyhistory is an essentialpart of the recognitionand diagnosis of theseconditions.
Unfortunately, it's notuncommon for familymembers of someonediagnosed with a raredisease to go untested,which could delay get-ting an accurate diagno-sis and potentiallyappropriate medical at-tention. Families shouldkeep an open line ofcommunication about
diseases that may begenetic and if appropri-ate, encourage their rel-atives to seek evaluationby a knowledgeablemedical professional.Nikia, 32, who is livingwith a rare swelling dis-ease called hereditaryangioedema (HAE),knows firsthand the im-portance of familial test-ing.
HAE is a genetic dis-ease that affects about6,000 people in theUnited States. The dis-ease causes repeatedswelling attacks that canoccur anywhere in thebody, including arms,legs, hands, feet, stom-ach, genitals, face andthroat. HAE attacks canbe unpredictable,painful, debilitating anddisfiguring. The averageHAE patient enduresabout 10 years of re-peated misdiagnosesbefore the disease is ac-curately identified. Alongwith a blood testing, acomprehensive familyhistory can help accu-rately diagnosis HAE.Often, people who arediagnosed with HAE re-port having relativeswho suffered their whole
lives from severe stom-ach aches or unex-plained episodes ofswelling, or even rela-tives who died unex-pectedly due to throatswelling, who likely hadHAE but were never ac-curately diagnosed.
Nikia was first diag-nosed with HAE whenshe was just 5 years old,after experiencing se-vere swelling all overher body. Nikia's motherhad also suffered frombouts of unexplainedswelling throughout herlife, but because her at-tacks were less severeand only occurred in herfeet, she never soughtmedical attention. It wasNikia's cousin who even-tually encouraged hermother to get tested forHAE, and three yearsafter Nikia was diag-nosed, her mother'stesting indicated thatshe also had HAE. Be-cause of her cousin'spersistence, Nikia'smother was finally ableto understand the causeof her own unexplainedswelling episodes andreceived medical atten-tion that helped hermanage her attacks.
Understanding thelikelihood that she couldpass HAE on to her chil-dren, Nikia had both ofher children evaluatedfor the disease. Al-though her daughterwas not diagnosed withthe condition, her soneventually was. WhenNikia's son was about 3years old, he was fre-quently being sent homefrom school for nauseaand vomiting. Nikia, whohad experienced similarsymptoms as a child,recognized the likeli-hood that it could be dueto HAE. Testing con-firmed that her son did,indeed, have the dis-
ease."When my son was di-
agnosed with HAE, Iwasn't afraid or sad,"says Nikia. "It gave methe spirit to further edu-cate myself and otherhealth care providers sothat they could poten-tially help someone elseby getting an earlier di-agnosis. I learned asmuch as I could aboutthe HAE landscape sothat I could be the bestadvocate for my son.
Today, Nikia dedicatesmuch of her time tostaying up to speed onnew information or med-ical advances in HAEand spreading aware-ness of the diseaseamongst her family,friends and community.She shares the new in-formation she learnswith her extended familyand encourages mem-bers of her family to getevaluated for the condi-tion. To date, she hasprompted two cousins toundergo testing for HAE.It is her hope that her
loved ones will alsospread knowledge aboutthe disease so that oth-ers may be properly di-agnosed without havingto endure years of un-told suffering.
"Even though some ofmy family membershave been tested forHAE and the resultscame back negative,they are now educatedabout this disease andcan help raise aware-ness among others,"says Nikia.

Snacking on the go: perfectly portionedsnacks made simple and stylish
(BPT) - In today's busy world, snacking on the go is a fact of life. However, delicious and balancedsnacks don't need to beboring; or becomebruised and forgottenitems at the bottom ofyour purse. Here aresome creative ways tospice up your snackroutine and help yousavor perfectly por-tioned and portablesnacks to help main-tain a balanced diet.
Remember this ruleof thumb.
Sometimes it'stough to rememberportion sizes forsnacks when you'rebusy at home or at theoffice. The best tool touse when portioningyour snacks is actuallyalways with you - your hand.• The size of your thumb = a serving of cheese • Two thumbs = a serving of your favoritenut butter • A handful = the number of nuts you should eat • A balled fist = a serving of
fruits or veggiesAdd pop - and protection - to grapes.A simple way to make grapes a grab-and-go snack is by putting them in your freezer overnight. Fill
up a serving's worth of frozen grapes before heading out the door in the morning and enjoy at yourleisure - no refrigerator necessary. If you nibble on them while they're still frozen they have a refreshingpopsicle-like taste. By afternoon, the grapes will be thawed, but not bruised.
Make it easy to grab your favorite treat and go.Carrying snacks in your purse can be dangerous for the other contents inside, for example, a
smashed banana gets everywhere. Consider using a carrying case to keep your treats away from yourphone and wallet. One option is to use a lipstick case, to bring chocolate with you when you're out andabout.
"I love a little chocolate every day, so it's really helpful to have a custom carrying case that fits justthe right amount for me to enjoy on the go," says chocolate-lover and do-it-yourself expert Brittany Bai-ley of the Pretty Handy Girl blog. "Four or five HERSHEY'S KISSES Chocolates fit perfectly in the caseand are just 100 calories, or about 20 to 25 calories per piece. They are individually wrapped, so I cansavor a moment of happiness or share with someone else."
In addition to a lipstick case, you can try converting a travel soap box or other container into yourown DIY carrying case and add your own personal touch with stickers, decorative tape or rhinestones.It's a fun and simple way to take your favorite treats with you wherever you go.
Create your own 100-calorie pack.Looking for something new to snack on, but don't want to pay extra for pre-packaged convenience?
Try measuring granola, nuts, cereal or dried fruit ahead of time and packing them in small plastic bagsto create your own individual snack packs. Don't forget to label them so that reusing the bags is easy.Making these easy grab-and-go snacks will help you keep track of your snacks, even when you're athome, and these small bites will help keep you satisfied between meals.
