Small Great Things

Jodi Picoult

Food for thought…You can control you

You cannot control the weather. You can control you.

You cannot control other people. You can control you.

You cannot control the market, the government, the culture, the seemingly random hand of fate. What you can control is what you think, how you see and feel about life, and what you do.

You can control you, and that is more than enough for great fulfillment. You control you, and with that control you can forge a positive result out of any situation.

In what you have gained, in what you have lost, there lives the same opportunity. Through purposeful self-direction and control, you can make it into something great.

You control the beautiful, unique, creative bundle of possibilities that is you. Every day, every situation is your chance to trans-form that control, that power, into meaningful value.

Recipe to Try…

Directions

1. Combine oats and milk in a large bowl. Cover and let soak in the refrigerator until much of the liquid is absorbed, at least 8

hours and up to 12 hours.

2. Preheat oven to 375°F. Coat a 12-cup nonstick muffin tin with cooking spray.

3. Stir egg, maple syrup, oil, vanilla, cinnamon, baking powder and salt into the soaked oats until well combined. Divide the

mixture among the muffin cups (about 1/4 cup each). Top each with 1 tablespoon blueberries.

4. Bake the oatmeal cakes until they spring back when touched, 25 to 30 minutes. Let cool in the pan for a 10 minutes. Loosen

and remove with a paring knife. Serve warm.

Tips for Picking Healthy Food as You Get Older

Here are 6 tips to help you find the best foods for your body and your budget.

1. Know what a healthy plate looks like

You might remember the food pyramid, but the USDA recently unveiled a simpler way

to help people see what they should eat each day. It’s called MyPlate. The simple graphic

shows exactly how the five food groups should stack up on your plate. These are the

building blocks for a healthy diet.

2. Look for important nutrients

Make sure you eat a variety of foods to get all the nutrients you need. Your plate should

look like a rainbow—bright, colored foods are always the best choice! A healthy meal

should include: Lean protein (lean meats, seafood, eggs, beans)

Fruits and vegetables (think orange, red, green, and purple)

Whole grains (brown rice, whole wheat pasta)

Low-fat dairy (milk and its alternatives)

Remember to choose foods that are high in fiber and low in sodium or salt. Also, look for

Vitamin D, an important mineral as we age.

3. Read the Nutrition Facts label

The healthiest foods are whole foods. These are often found on the perimeter of the gro-

cery store in the produce, meat, and dairy sections. When you do eat packaged foods, be

a smart shopper! Read the labels to find items that are lower in fat, added sugars, and

sodium.

4. Use recommended servings

To maintain your weight, you must eat the right amount of food for your age and body.

The American Heart Association provides recommended daily servings for adults aged

60+.

5. Stay hydrated

Water is an important nutrient too! Don’t let yourself get dehydrated—drink small

amounts of fluids consistently throughout the day. Tea, coffee, and water are your best

choices. Keep fluids with sugar and salt at a minimum, unless your doctor has suggested

otherwise.

6. Stretch your food budget

Want to get the biggest nutritional bang for your buck? The Supplemental Nutrition As-

sistance Program (SNAP) can help you afford healthy food when you need it. Over 4 mil-

lion older Americans use SNAP to buy food, and the average senior receives $113 each

month.
