It also helps you make the healthy eating lifestyle a family affair by giving you tips to get the kids involved.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/td&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/table&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Any of these cookbooks are great resources and take the hassle of figuring out what healthy recipes to make which is great. You save time by using a cookbook because it is less you have to think about, simply get the ingredients and prepare the meal.&lt;br /&gt;It is a great idea to buy all 3 of the books so that you have a variety of choices of meals to prepare. However, if you decide to buy only 1 book, I recommend &lt;a href=&quot;http://www.amazon.com/gp/product/1605297836?ie=UTF8&amp;amp;tag=momguide-20&amp;amp;linkCode=as2&amp;amp;camp=1789&amp;amp;creative=390957&amp;amp;creativeASIN=1605297836&quot;&gt;Biggest Loser Family Cookbook: Budget-Friendly Meals Your Whole Family Will Love&lt;/a&gt;&lt;img style=&quot;BORDER-RIGHT: medium none; BORDER-TOP: medium none; MARGIN: 0px; BORDER-LEFT: medium none; BORDER-BOTTOM: medium none&quot; height=&quot;1&quot; alt=&quot;&quot; src=&quot;http://www.assoc-amazon.com/e/ir?t=momguide-20&amp;amp;l=as2&amp;amp;o=1&amp;amp;a=1605297836&quot; width=&quot;1&quot; border=&quot;0&quot; /&gt; because it is truly designed for families who want eat healthy without breaking their budget.</description><link>http://5lifeskills.blogspot.com/2009/05/eating-healthy-top-3-cookbooks-for.html</link><author>noreply@blogger.com (Anonymous)</author><thr:total>0</thr:total></item><item><guid isPermaLink="false">tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1547303755969775666.post-4399850700092635278</guid><pubDate>Wed, 20 May 2009 15:45:00 +0000</pubDate><atom:updated>2009-06-19T11:20:20.462-07:00</atom:updated><category domain="http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#">help mom</category><category domain="http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#">how to manage stress</category><category domain="http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#">how to organize my family</category><category domain="http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#">life skills curriculum</category><category domain="http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#">mom blog</category><category domain="http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#">parenting</category><category domain="http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#">parenting advice</category><category domain="http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#">parenting help</category><category domain="http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#">positive parenting</category><category domain="http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#">relieve stress</category><category domain="http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#">self help</category><category domain="http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#">skills for life</category><category domain="http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#">stressed out mom</category><category domain="http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#">teaching life skills</category><category domain="http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#">working moms</category><title>How do I join the 5 Life Skills Community?</title><description>&lt;div class=&quot;clear&quot;&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;br /&gt;                  &lt;p style=&quot;border: dotted #FF6600; padding: 3mm;&quot; align=&quot;center&quot; &gt;&lt;font size=&quot;2&quot;&gt;&lt;b&gt;Two Simple Steps To Parenting Sanity:&lt;br/&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br/&gt;&lt;br /&gt;#1 - &lt;a href=&quot;http://www.1shoppingcart.com/app/?Clk=3069701&quot; target=&quot;new&quot;&gt;Read:  Parent Toolshop Book&lt;/a&gt; and how to handle &lt;i&gt;any&lt;/i&gt; parenting problem -- &lt;bold&gt;guaranteed results.&lt;/bold&gt; &lt;br /&gt;&lt;br/&gt;&lt;br /&gt;#2 - Subscribe to newsletter and feed:  Receive &lt;bold&gt;Free&lt;/bold&gt; updates on &lt;a href=&quot;http://feeds2.feedburner.com/5LifeSkills&quot; target=&quot;new&quot;&gt;how to parent and stay sane!&lt;/a&gt; in your Inbox.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br/&gt;&lt;br /&gt;It&#39;s that simple.&lt;/b&gt;&lt;/font&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br/&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;p&gt;&lt;span style=&quot;font-size:130%;&quot;&gt;The 5 Life Skills community is based on the book 5 Life Skills Smart Moms must Have: Proven Strategies to Keep You Sane!
