Weekly menu

After a week posting what I think is healthy choice of food, I will post weekly healthy menu from Monday to Friday. The weekend is reserve to eat anything I like but in moderation.

I substitute some of the ingredients to healthier ingredients such as using eggs white, 1% milk, whole wheat flour, whole wheat bread, ground turkey, etc.

Also, I use all kind of fruits and vegetables for the juice (carrots, broccoli, spinach, apple, orange, pineapple, berries, etc.).  Although I like most of the juice I’ve made, my favorites are carrots ginger and beets ginger juice.

Good place to hang out in Downtown Forth Worth

I love downtown Fort Worth. It's save and parking in free on the weekend and evenings. You can see police officers patrolling the area in horses or bicycle.
8.0 Restaurant and Bar is conveniently located in the heart of Sundance Square.
When the weather is good, you can sit in the patio and enjoy the people passing by or live music on the weekend. The food is not bad either.
