Living a healthy lifestyle is a subject of much debate in the media and throughout the world. Every self-proclaimed fitness guru has a new theory on what a healthy lifestyle is.

This is another one of my favorite bbq sauces because it’s a sauce that is great for bbq competitions. You see, most people prefer a sweet barbecue sauce and competition judges are people too! When we first started cooking ribs for competition, this was one of the recipes we developed. You can substitute your favorite bourbon for the Wild Turkey. This sauce gives the ribs a real nice color… and the taste ain’t bad neither! This sauce is excellent to use with the professional rib cooking techniques found in our book, “Competition BBQ Secrets”…

1/4 cup Wild Turkey Bourbon
2 cups ketchup

Cooking with honey gives you a never-ending list of possibilities and recipes due to the many practical functions honey could serve. Here I list you seven:
Honey
1) enhances browning and crisp — great for glazing roasted and baked foods to promote surface browning.
2) is a flavour enhancer — an always welcomed natural sweetener for hot teas and cold beverages.
3) provides texture and feel — an excellent addition in pastries and cakes making.
4) prolongs shelf-life — a natural preservative for pickles and sauces.
5) retains moisture — an essential ingredient for providing the moisture in rich cakes and prolonging the moisture retention.
6) is binding due to its viscosity — a brilliant ingredient that aids shaping of desserts such as pastries, puddings, and cakes.
7) adds colour — contributes a delightful golden hue to sauces, dressings, jellies, and frozen desserts.

Since I am trying to lose weight I have been going to the
gym and walking the treadmill. Each day I try to increase the distance
and length of time I walk. Attempting to muster the strength to go
farther on one occasion, I started repeating to myself the words
from the Eagles song, “Take it to the limit one more time”. As I
repeated those words, I was infused with the strength to increase my
distance.
At that moment, I understood how those powerful words could be used
for motivation in the pursuit of my online business goals. When I find
myself getting discouraged, anxious about my expectations, I sing to
myself repeating the words, “Take it to limit one more time”.
