Fat Busting Smoothies

 A fat-busting smoothie can be a delicious and nutritious addition to your diet. These smoothies are designed to help boost metabolism, increase satiety, and promote fat loss. Here are some tasty and science-backed fat-burning smoothie recipes that you can try:

    • Finally, add ice and blend for another 10 seconds. Enjoy! 1

A Regular Folks Supper 200 years Ago - March 1820

 People’s diets in the 1800s varied depending on their location, season, and social class. Generally, people ate more fruits and vegetables in the spring and summer, and more meat and preserved foods in the fall and winter. They also cooked most of their food from scratch, using ingredients they grew, raised, or hunted themselves. Some common foods they ate were bread, porridge, soup, stew, cheese, eggs, bacon, fish, poultry, beef, pork, potatoes, rice, beans, peas, oats, wheat, corn, cabbage, onion, garlic, turnip, parsnip, pumpkin, squash, apple, pear, peach, grape, and berry. They drank water, milk, buttermilk, ale, wine, and tea. They used different methods of curing food, such as drying, smoking, and salting, to prevent spoilage. They also used various cooking techniques, such as baking, boiling, roasting, frying, and grilling, to prepare their meals.
