Just as a quick reminder; 64-100 oz of water is optimal for most people. Diet coke and coffee do not count as water.
Let's start with a quick reminder of why? Why do we need to focus on water? It is boring, mundane, and therefore probably not all that important. Wrong!!!!
I have discovered one of the best ways to help people make healthy changes in life is to really help them understand why.
Water helps us from the inside out. From basic digestion and metabolism function to healthy hair and glowing skin.
Like so many other healthy habits, getting all of your water requires planning.
This summer I went through chemo and for the first time in my life I understood what people meant when they said, "I don't like water." Before this summer I thought was a completely ridiculous statement. Water wasn't anything, nothing to not like. Chemo treatments changed that for me and I learned what it meant to not like water. I started flavoring my water with hibiscus, it was perfect for me! Find a way to add some flavor (preferably without adding sugar) to your water if you need it.
Drink up guys!

Cheddar Bay Lobster Biscuits Recipe Ingredients
• Flours- we are using two varieties of flour: all-purpose flour and cake flour. Combining these two flours, produces the perfectly flaky crumb which is the “secret” that everyone will rave about! You might be wondering, does it really make a difference? Cake flour is a finely milled, delicate flour with a low protein content and is usually bleached. When used in baked goods, it results in a super-tender texture with a fine crumb, and a good rise. The primary difference between cake flour and all-purpose (AP) flour is the protein content, which becomes gluten. Cake flour is self-rising and it replaces the need for baking powder in this recipe.
• Very cold butter- the colder the better! In culinary school we would cut the butter into small cubes, spread it out on parchment paper, and then place it in the freezer for 7-10 minutes to become very chilled. It is essential to NOT completely incorporate the butter into the flour mixture! Only disperse small pea-sized pieces of it evenly through out. These tiny pockets of butter create the flakey texture we want in our biscuits. This is why a pastry cutter is such a handy tool to use. If you don’t have one, then using two table knifes and cross cutting the butter into the flour mixture will also work well!
• Buttermilk- Buttermilk is a slightly sour milk– the sour in the buttermilk is the acid activation which the baking powder in the cake flour needs to work it’s best. Buttermilk is also usually much lower in fat than regular milk and cream. Cultured buttermilk, as it is called in the United States these days, is a pasteurized milk product. A culture of lactic acid bacteria is added to low-fat milk to curdle and sour the milk.
• Sea salt and Sugar- the sea salt is essential for flavor and is a must for our biscuits. The sugar can be omitted or reduced as you prefer, this recipe has a small amount that could also be substituted with a sugar replacer, if preferred.

This week we are focusing on the second aspect of physical health, water! We all know we need to drink water, we have heard it over and over again. So if we have heard it on repeat why do we still need to be reminded? Why is it so easy to forget?Just as a quick reminder; 64-100 oz of water is optimal for most people. Diet coke and coffee do not count as water.
