Most people are thinking about New Year’s resolutions, however, it is better to think about possible improvements and changes. Otherwise we are all disappointed are we not? Instead of persevering for one whole, arduous week we can think about long term changes and be proactive. Consider last year’s bad and good experiences and see what really stands out and either eradicate, improve, change or just start something new.

Here are some ideas and you may want to activate some action within 48 hours haha…

If you received a new cookery book recently, plan one new recipe a week

Try having a vegetarian day or even a vegan day/s
