NEW THINGS for a NEW YEAR
Well the first week of 2020 is complete and there are many things to do or try.
I am not one to make a list of NEW YEARS resolutions in general -
more a mental note to myself of what needs to be
done or hopefully done.
But it is not always so simple to stick to new resolutions , as a study shows
most people start well in the beginning and then the novelty wears off.
Be it going to the gym or changing our diets things we all want to do ,
but perhaps don't enjoy it.
I think if you make a resolution it should be something you are interested in
or makes you feel happier or healthier.
BECOMING VEGAN
On that note, January is VEGANUARY month, vegan diets are becoming more popular and a more healthy lifestyle , I could almost be a vegan, as I love fresh vegetables and fruits and not much meat, but I am not so keen on tofu burgers, sorry. Also health wise there are some drawbacks to vegan diets, according to a health study vegan diets lack the B12 vitamin
- but still there are benefits also.
**Adults need around 1.5 micrograms of B12 a day.
It is found in meat, fish, eggs and dairy products, but not in fruits, vegetables or grains - so those eating a vegan diet are advised to eat fortified foods, like cereals, or take supplements.
B12 deficiency, which can lead to nerve damage, tends to take three or four years to cause symptoms - usually first appearing as pins and needles in the hands or feet."

ADORABLE KNITS from NEW ZEALAND
If you read the news, or follow Englands royals, the latest is that adorable picture of little Archie wearing a cute knitted hat. These hats are made by a group of knitters in New Zealand, women that knit hats to donate to those in need, they also sell them.

Since that photo appeared they have been swamped with orders for the knit hat. So really that is a good charity to support. Cheers to the women in NZ!
A nice new hobby to try, knitting anyone? Do you knit?
