"The bohemian lifestyle is all about collecting pieces over time, mixing and matching similar with dissimilar items, and creating a feeling of overall freedom." |
Urban Elegance. This year, lemongrass is making the statement, even as Michelle Obama wears the color on her husband's inaugural day. As the economy took a downturn, dining out has been replaced with invitations to friends and family to dine in. While we're looking for ways to cut spending and save money, we still want to keep our decor -- in the kitchen and on the dinner table -- fresh, modern, and fun for every day and the occasional soiree. The good news is you can achieve 'bohemia' without breaking the bank. Purchase one or two new, but inexpensive, pieces that you can add to your everyday dishes, like a set of square bowls to layer with round designs. Or add chargers in a shade that acts as an accent to the current color scheme. Your best bet is to raid your grandma's boxed up dishes in the basement or scout out bargains at local antique stores and garage sales. Whatever your design preference is for the season, be it urban, bohemian, patriotic, or more masculine, you can be a trendsetter and achieve these looks on a budget. Just combine a few new pieces, dishes you already have, and a little creativity. |

Healthy Summer Living During the summer, people will spend more time at sports events, participate in sports events, attend outdoor picnics, go to outdoor concerts, go to the beach, and take long walk. Make healthy food choices. Fresh fruits and vegetables are in season and loaded with nutrients and antioxidants that active summer bodies need. Take a daily multi-vitamin to ensure the body is getting the necessary nutrients. Exercise at least three times a week. Physical exercise may include workouts at a gym, walking, jogging, biking, and other forms of cardiovascular stimulation. |

This recipe for Smoked Turkey, Pine Nut Pesto, and Sharp Provolone Panini created by Jason Denton will show you the delicious difference natural ingredients can make in a grilled sandwich. For more recipes, visit www.Sargento.com. Gourmet Panini is still a hot trend and many people look to duplicate the bold flavors of restaurant-grilled sandwiches in the comfort of their own homes. While there are countless ways to create a warm delicious panino or grilled sandwich, natural cheese serves as the common thread throughout most recipes. Over the years, sandwich making has evolved beyond the simple stacking of ham and process cheese on white bread. Today, delicious fresh ingredients like turkey, sharp provolone, and arugula are combined on grilled ciabatta bread to create more memorable gourmet Panini. "When I prepare Panini, I only use the freshest ingredients and natural cheese in my recipes," says Denton. "It is important to remember that choosing to cook with deli-quality natural sliced cheeses, like the newly introduced Sargento Sharp Provolone, Vermont Sharp White Cheddar or Reduced Fat Pepper Jack, will offer a greater variety of flavor and complexity to hot grilled sandwiches." When it comes to key ingredients like cheese, consumers know natural is best. In fact, 82 percent of consumers list natural cheese among their favorite toppings on hot grilled sandwiches, versus only 27 percent that choose process cheese. "In the first bite of a perfectly made hot grilled sandwich, you'll taste how natural cheese gives Panini a creamy texture and full-bodied flavor that process cheese can't deliver," says Denton. |
