Finance minister says $8,000 flight to attend commerce lunch was worth it – DiscoverMooseJaw.com

Saskatchewan’s finance minister said it was worth spending nearly $8,000 on a private plane to attend a chamber of commerce lunch days after she tabled a budget that contained tax hikes.

Donna Harpauer says the price tag for the March 25 flight from Regina to North Battleford, Sask., and back was high, but it’s the cost of doing business.

“I think being in other communities to present the budget … is important and there is a cost to doing it,” she said Tuesday.

Harpauer said she took the flight with her chief of staff because she would have been too

Is It Time to Cut Back on Alcohol?

December 12, 2022 · 7:00 AM

“Is the room spinning, or is it just me?”

A few months ago I ran across a thoughtful article by Morris van de Camp entitled Love Drinking Less. It’s well worth a read if your alcohol consumption is out of control or heading that way.

Recipe: Peggy’s Indian Cabbage | Diabetic Mediterranean Diet

May 20, 2023 · 8:10 AM

From Peggy at Buttoni’s Low-Carb Recipes:

If you think you don’t like cabbage (like my husband) you have GOT to try this recipe! You’ll swear you don’t eat cabbage!! No cabbage odor or strong taste whatsoever to this dish! It is a delightfully crunchy side dish with grilled Tandoori Chicken or pork chops! I order my nigella seeds (black onion seeds or how about seed) on-line, but you may be lucky to have a spice supplier where you live. I would not recommend omitting them, as you will miss out on a flavor layer

Coconut Orange Breakfast Bars – JennifersKitchen

Gluten-Free, Sugar-Free, Oil-Free Coconut Breakfast Bars

One thing I do not do:

Spend more than 10 minutes in the morning preparing breakfast. When it’s breakfast time, I want to eat – not measure, stir, cook, chop, or bake.

That means that make-ahead breakfasts are a regular part of my meals. Preparing breakfast ahead of time means that either my crockpot or my freezer always has something delicious waiting for me in the morning.

Like these Coconut Orange Breakfast Bars.

Naturally sweet, these Coconut Orange Breakfast Bars are packed with both flavor and nutrition. And they’re freezer-friendly, so you can have a stash in the freezer for

Catch it, Kill it, Bin it… Then What? – RoSPA Workplace Safety Blog

Core messaging during the COVID -19 pandemic has focused on the role each citizen plays in bringing the situation under control. Good hygiene and social distancing have been spoken about widely and it is acknowledged that the latter is the primary risk control measure.

The role of key workers has also been widely discussed, such as the value of NHS staff and care workers, the role of educators and the rapid transition to home schooling. And as I sit here at home thinking about the 27 million households in the UK on lockdown, and the impact on people and their

mental health and wellbeing in the workplace – RoSPA Workplace Safety Blog

More than ever before, mental health is a topic for open discussion in the media, within our social circles and of course at work. Mental health and wellbeing is all about how we think, feel and behave, and is usually caused by a reaction to a difficult life event, which can be caused or made worse by work-related issues. In particular, working in isolation away from managers and colleagues can add stress to a workforce that is already facing a significant amount of pressure.

The scale of the problem

Globally, an estimated 264 million people suffer from depression, one of
