It's Quaker Heart Health Month!

Heart disease isn't something I necessarily worry about, but it's definitely in the back of my mind.  Hubby has had a few heart-related scares, and heart disease runs in his family.  So instead of nagging him about the extra mayo, extra cheese, and extra butter that he tries to add to everything, I consciously make healthy shopping decisions for my family.  After all, I want my Hubby and my 3 boyz to live long and (heart) healthy lives...right alongside me, the HEART of our family!

Speaking of, please watch this important video with Top Chef Season 5 favorite Fabio Viviani talking about taking care of our hearts (I'm digging his sexay red jammies!):

To promote American Heart Month,Quaker Oats is running an Epic Hot Breakfast sweepstakes! All you have to do is watch the above video (which can be found at www.YouTube.com/Quaker) and then share it on Twitter using the hashtag #QuakerLove between February 14-28.

What can you win?  A Chicago getaway!

15 participants will also receive an "Ultimate Hot Breakfast" prize pack - yum!

Choosing whole grain Quaker Oats is a quick and simple way to provide yourself with the necessary fuel for a healthy heart...and besides, have you ever had Quaker Oats in those chocolately peanut buttery no-bake cookies?

Now those make MY heart happy!

Also, you don't want to miss out on the Quaker Heart Health Twitter party, taking place on Tuesday 2/19 from 8-9 PM EST. The party will be hosted by @ResourcefulMom and @FabioViviani will be the celebrity guest.  The party hashtag is #QuakerHearts!. To RSVP to this Twitter party, click here!
