It does seem as though, here in
the middle of winter, I should be
able to catch up on my reading.
However, the piles of newspapers
just keep getting higher. I am
determined to read the daily
newspaper through but somehow

the Sunday paper is simply too big
to plow through in one afternoon
and so it is put aside for a time of
leisure that never comes.

subscribe for extra ones but they
pay no heed. And, I do believe that
we get at least 15 different farm
magazines. Some of them are
never opened and so when they are
a month old, I give them to our
Amish neighbors. If the farmer
doesn’t read them, at least their
children can cut out the pictures of
farm animals.
The other day I drove with my
Iraband in his truck to Chester
County to buy some cows. Some
roads were one lane and not the
snow plowed ones that we are
accustomed to where we live. We
saw several sleighs which were the
proper vehicle for those conditions.
Yesterday I saw a flock of
unusual large birds when I slogged
through the deep snow to fill the
bird feeder. They flew away
toward the river and appeared to
be some kind of crane or heron.

The odd appearance of the flock me to carry many buckets of coal
caused me to hurry and get Allen’s to our “hungry” furnace. I’ll be
binoculars for a closer look at their glad when once a day will suffice

UNIVERSITY PARK - If being
behind schedule is a fact of life and
fixing a meal is the last straw, you
don’t have to sacrifice good
nutrition to arrive on time. Penn
State Extension is offering a series
of Food and Fitness fact sheets
that will help you eat on the run
and keep a balanced diet.
The key to a nutritious but fast
meal is planning with a balance of
choices from the four basic food
groups. “Fast eating means
simplification and planning
ahead,” says Dr. J. Lynne Brown,
assistant professor of food science
at Penn State and author of Ex
tension’s new fact sheets, Food and
Fitness.
Here are some general tips for
eating on the run:
• Cook double recipes and freeze
in serving sized portions
• Look for one-pot meal recipes
• Interweave as many steps as
possible

For Folks On The Run
• Use appliances that save time
A nutritionally balanced meal
should contain two or more
vegetables, grains or pasta or
bread, a source of protein, and a
dairy product. If you select a
frozen entree, read the nutrition
label to be sure the fat and sodium
content are not excessive. A low
sodium product contains 140
milligrams or less of sodium per
serving. Select an entree with 10
grams of fat or less per serving to
help you limit your fat intake.
If you would like more in
formation about how you can eat
on the run and get started on the
road to fitness, contact your
County Cooperative Extension
Service and ask for the six part
series of fact sheets on Food and
Fitness. Other topics include fit
ness, exercise, smart snacks and
nutrition for competition. The fact
sheets cost 10 cents a piece or 60
cents for the series.
