Healthy Snack Ideas: My Blogging From A to Z April Challenge Theme!

The snow melted, the cost of strawberries plummeted and I swapped boots for flats. Spring is almost here! That means it's time for the April Blogging from A to Z Challenge.

During April I'll update Whole Foods Living each day with delicious, helpful advice. 

My theme for 2014 is healthy snack ideas! Personally, I'm great at whipping up a healthy meal. But when I reach for a snack, I sometimes have to think twice. Is snacking difficult for you too? Be sure to stop by each day in April for some healthy, wholesome ideas. 

If you want an email reminder, simply sign up with your email address on the top, left corner of this page where it says "Get Blog Updates Delivered to Your Email!". 

I hope to see you online in April!

Until Next Time,
Choose Healthy!

It's Almost A to Z Time!

As I look out the window, sun beams down on quarter-size, sparkling snowflakes. But, I'm still dreaming of warmer weather. Thankfully, one of my favorite spring blogging traditions is just around the corner.

Yep, it's almost time for the Blogging from A to Z April Challenge.

Motivated bloggers have the opportunity to connect with writers, learn about new websites, build their email lists, make new friends and learn a little something along the way.

I'm thinking of sharing a month's worth of healthy, whole foods living snack ideas. Sounds tasty, right?

This will be my third year participating in the month-long challenge. You can learn more about the challenge and sign up with your blog on the official website HERE.

Do you plan on participating this year? Have you signed up or chosen a theme for your April posts? I have two blogs participating this year: Whole Foods Living and Web Writing Advice.

I hope to 'see' you online in April!

Until Next Time,
Choose Healthy!

Wrapping Up the A to Z Challenge 2013

Whew, another April is in the books! The Blogging from A to Z Challenge was a wild ride this year. I really enjoyed discovering new blogs and seeing some old friends from last year's challenge stop by for a visit as well.

I know I'm a little late on writing this wrap-up, but I was on vacation the first week of May and didn't exactly have Internet access in our remote little cabin in the woods. (It was wonderful!)

This was my second year of both attempting and completing the blog challenge. The first year I wrote the bulk of my posts ahead of time so I could spend the month reading and commenting on other blogs. 

This year I wrote a post each day, and I actually think I enjoyed that better. I didn't feel like I had to get  bunch of work ready ahead of time. This challenge had a more go-with-the-flow feel. Plus, I could customize the next day's post to answer any questions related to previous posts.

During the challenge I was also nominated for a Liebster Award from Joy over at "It's a Joy!". Thanks a bunch, Joy!

Although I'm sad to see the challenge come to an end, it's nice to still see bloggers visiting and networking. I've even come across a few ambitious writers who are starting up their own monthly blog challenges to keep the momentum going. Way to go!

Until Next Time,
Choose Healthy!

Blogging from A to Z Challenge: Are You Participating?

Last week the gurus at the Blogging from A to Z Challenge opened the flood gates. Yep, it's time to sign up for the annual April blog challenge. If you've never participated, here's why you should:

• You get to explore new blogs.
• You gain new readers and followers.
• You're challenged to post to your blog each day for a month.
• It's a great way to reboot your creative juices.

Here's a recap of my posts from the 2012 challenge.

I'm not sure what direction or theme I will follow this year. I've been tossing round the idea of raiding the produce department and trying a new whole food each day. Or maybe highlighting a favorite recipe each day. The key is to blog from A to Z, highlighting one letter of the alphabet each day, excluding Sundays.

Until Next Time,
