Speak Up: What's on Your List for Santa?
The time of year has come for good girls and boys to break out the pen and paper to ask Santa for what we really want this year. Since Santa brings toys, not six-pack abs, it's a good way to list all the things you want to accomplish on your own. Here are mine:
Dear Santa,
Sorry to hear that they're making you slim down, I'll be sure to leave you some water and fruits and veggies this year.
Should Mall Santas Lose a Few?
A mall in England has ordered its Santas to slim down before greeting children this holiday season. The mall will be running a month-long boot camp for overweight Santas who will be working there leading up to Christmas. Officials hope this will send a message to kids that while Santa's belly shook like a bowl full of jelly then, it's called abdominal obesity now and it's unhealthy.
I Don't Think You're Ready for This Jelly
And it shook when he laughed like a bowl full of jelly...
It used to be that this saying was endearing and brought forth warm and fuzzy memories of Old Saint Nick. The times, they are a-changing so now that belly full of jelly means that Santa's got a bit of an obesity problem on his hands and that is no laughing matter.

Santa Claus Got the Fitness Memo
Last year Santa made headlines, not for his unlimited generosity, but for the size of his waistline. Health concerns associated with the rising obesity rates had fingers pointing at St. Nick's bowl-full-of-jelly belly, and he was urged to lose some weight and change his image.
Merry Christmas!!!
To borrow St. Nick's closing remarks in 'Twas the Night Before Christmas - "Happy Christmas to all, and to all a goodnight!"
I hope you have a good day, too.

Who doesn't need a quick meal every once in a while? For that reason, I always keep a few of these bowls in the freezer from Amy's Kitchen. Many of them are vegan or lactose free, some are gluten free or soy free, and some are light in sodium.
