 Disappointed--days of week filled with quotes/words--unable to personalize w/my daily to-do's.
I was so excited to receive this calendar. The photos, wonderful recipes and info on healthy eating was great! However, I buy a calendar so that I can write in reminders and daily to-do's, tasks and activities--more than half of the daily spots are filled with quotes and writing--leaving no room to write in. I need a calendar that offers the photos and info I like but that also leaves room to fill in.
 Healthy Hints
This calendar is Great with all its healthy hints on eating healthy,and cooking for your family using fresh vegetables prepared more nutritious. The receipes are good using different herbs I enjoy the little saying on some of the days of the month to encourage you to be a more postive to help your friends and yourself. The pictures are bright and cheerful.
Beautiful and Useful
I normally buy the Farmer's Almanac Gardening calendar, but this year I decided to try something else, for a change of pace. I picked the calendar out of the box and saw right away that it was printed on good quality paper. I went through every month to see what the calendar offers (I usually try to wait, but I never learned to be patient!) Each month features a vibrant seasonal photograph of a food item, and I can't resist; I love food. In the top right side of the calendar is a portion that has a different way to improve your life for each month. For example, in January, it reads, "Joy in January." (for the sake of brevity, I won't list the entire contents, there is a lot.) It speaks of finding happiness despite the frigid temperatures and desolate winter weather. Below this is a smaller portion that tells you about a healthy food(s). For January, it is citrus fruit. Under this is a recipe. The recipes are not just thrown together. You'll notice this right away, just at a glance.
The pictures are beautiful and appropriately chosen.
I was surprised that others had not reviewed this treat of a calendar. It is truly a well-kept secret. I wish I knew about it sooner, because I would have started buying it years ago.
