Want to snack better – the secret is in a fruit bowl. When I keep fruit in the fridge, it goes in the bottom drawer and is often forgotten. However, when there is a bowl on the counter, it disappears quickly. In fact, I have had two plums since I snapped this shot. If it wasn’t there, I for sure would’ve found cheese instead.
When days are super busy (as they often are), its so nice to have a healthy, easy snack within reach. It’s not just for home too – have a smaller version on your desk at work. Much better than the vending machine (most times, anyway).
Other benefits…
I’m not the only one who eats it. People who are self-proclaimed “meat, cheese, and bread only” eaters gobble up nature’s sweet delights when in sight. Gotta get the fiber in some how!
Its also great to look at – no wonder the Master’s were so inspired…
They were on to something!
