My friend Kelly and I work together at the Health Dept in health promotion and are always talking about health issues, and especially those that affect us directly the most. She had recently read a couple of books by some food and health bloggers and knew that Britton and I write this blog, so she asked if I would like to do a collaboration blog project with her. I thought it was a fabulous idea! We used to be health bloggers for the Greeley Tribune which is the newspaper for this area, so this is sort of an extension of that, with a little more personal touch.

The Rad Dish!

We’ve just set it up, so it will be formatted and changed around a little as we get things going, but the basics are there! It is called The Rad Dish and we will be posting the latest health news and tips as well as our meals and exercise and some just plain fun stuff as well. We hope you’ll have a chance to stop in a see what we’ve been up to by way of food, exercise and health. You can also “like” the Facebook page too: Facebook/theraddish.

One of the features of the site that I am most excited about is the ability for readers to upload a picture of their own! For instance, you could take a picture of your plate of food, or your grocery cart or even the insides of your pantry or refrigerator and then we will give you feedback on the best ways to improve it for health (if needed) and give a grade score! You can check out this post as an example.

We hope you visit it and like it! It’s a fun project, but still work, so it’s always great hearing from people that it is useful to them.
