Trying to keep up with your New Year Resolution?

Prepare your meals.

When you prepare meals yourself, you control exactly what goes into them. This makes it easier for you to make the right healthy choices for your body. Using an app like Cronometer to track your foods and potentially using a food service like HungryRoot can save you time, so you can get back to doing the things you want to do.

Saving Sunday:

Saving sooner can make all the difference

Published in 1994 by USAA, this picture shows how much money you’ll accumulate over time if you invest $250 a month starting at different ages. It assumes an eight percent average annual investment return.

If you start at age:

25: You’ll accumulate $878,570 by age 65

35: You’ll accumulate $375,073 by age 65

45: You’ll accumulate $148,236 by age 65

In short, the longer you wait to start saving and investing, the more you’ll miss out on compound interest.

Mother Earth

Earth—our home planet—is the third planet from the Sun, and the only place we know of so far that’s inhabited by living things. It's also the only planet in our solar system with liquid water on the surface. With a radius of 3,959 miles (6,371 kilometers), Earth is the biggest of the terrestrial planets and the fifth largest planet overall.

While Earth is only the fifth largest planet in the solar system, it is the only world in our solar system with liquid water on the surface. Just slightly larger than nearby Venus, Earth is the biggest of the four planets closest to the Sun, all of which are made of rock and metal.

Earth is the only planet in the Solar System whose English name does not come from Greek or Roman mythology. The name was taken from Old English and Germanic. It simply means "the ground." There are, of course, many names for our planet in the thousands of languages spoken by the people of the third planet from the Sun.

From an average distance of 93 million miles (150 million kilometers), Earth is exactly one astronomical unit away from the Sun because one astronomical unit (abbreviated as AU), is the distance from the Sun to Earth. This unit provides an easy way to quickly compare planets' distances from the Sun.

It takes about eight minutes for light from the Sun to reach our planet.

Meat Sweats - Slow Cook Sunday

Double Smoked Ham with Apple Cherry Habanero Bourbon Glaze.

I started out with a spiral sliced ham and sprayed it with @duckfatspray as a binder then seasoned heavily with our Honey Bacon BBQ. I smoked it at 250° with post oak for 3.5 hours.

I mixed the following and heated to make a glaze that I started basting every 15 minutes at 110°.

Glaze
1 1/3 C, light brown sugar
4 T of cherry preserves
2 oz @texaspepperjelly Apple Cherry Habanero Rib Candy
2 oz clover honey
2 oz your fav bourbon

I pulled the ham at 140°. Enjoy!

Get you one!
