Pear Tree – December 2022

Eat Well for the Holidays at Kinnelon Library, Kinnelon, NJ

“The Doctor Of The Future Will No Longer Treat The Human Frame With Drugs, But Rather Will Cure And Prevent Disease With Nutrition.” – Thomas Edison, Inventor And Businessman

The quote by Thomas Edison is so relevant today. When I give my “Eat Well for the Holidays” and “Healthy Pasta Alternatives” lectures at libraries, I’m proud of the attendees who know so much about health and eating right! I’m blessed that these two presentations do so well in libraries. And there are many other things that come into play in the Pear Tree umbrella.

Check out below to see what I can do for YOU and the upcoming lectures!! LIFE IS GOOD!
