Land of The Pines Connects Youth with Authentic Self Texas Roots Inspire Children’s Book Series Launch and Give Back Mission to Help Animals

Growing up in a town of 2,600, Summer Nilsson learned the art of a good tale in East Texas. For Nilsson, her small-town roots formed a life-long appreciation for animals, kindness and a cup of Sonic ice. “The inspiration for the Loodor Tales book series began with my hometown and my 12-year-old nieces,” Nilsson explained. “As an aunt, my job has always been to listen.

They wanted the information to be presented differently. They needed it to be on their terms.”

Chef reveals his three favorite things to eat when stressed

Comfort foods can be exciting and may even improve your mood

Raise your hand if you’ve ever eaten something unhealthy because you felt stressed. During his trips to the supermarket, Chef Gerard Viverito says he has been shocked to see so many grocery carts overloaded with junk food. “I understand that people are tired and seeking comfort. But tater tots and ice cream won’t help,” he says. “I’ve turned to food to bring me solace. In hindsight, I learned that when you eat poorly, you feel worse so you eat poorly again.
