It might seem strange that November — when millions of Americans gather around the dinner table to show gratitude through lavish Thanksgiving feasts — has recently been dubbed Good Nutrition Month.

purée vegetables, like sweet potatoes, into the cheese sauce. The bright orange color will mask the inclusion, ensuring your little one gets a good share of fiber-rich nutrients while being none the wiser. 3. Get ‘Beefy’ With Your Veggies.
While mindful eating is a habit families know they should practice year-round, once the holiday season kicks into full gear, it becomes much easier to overlook. With colder weather keeping you inside, the cravings for heartier meals and delicious baked goods leave parents struggling to encourage their picky eaters to consume anything nutritious. If you’re finding it more difficult than usual to convince your child to eat their greens, here are some tips to keep in mind! 1. Let ThemHelp.
If your kids are fans of meat-based pasta sauces, meatballs, or sloppy Joes, you can substitute some of the ground beef with finely chopped mushrooms. Since the meaty texture of the tasty fungi is similar to ground beef, it’ll be hard for kids to notice the difference. Riced cauliflower can also be mistaken for tender ground beef when cooked in darker sauces and gravies. While it can be frustrating to negotiate with a picky eater, especially during the holidays, don’t lose hope. Try out these three tasty tips and observe Good Nutrition Month with a little more ease.
If your child has grown out of the toddler stage and is still resistant to eating their vegetables, child psychologists say you should have them help with the cooking process. The excitement and anticipation that comes with getting to prepare the vegetables can encourage kids to try a couple bites during dinnertime. Separation vs. Divorce What’s the Difference in South Carolina? When describing the no-man’s-land between separation and divorce, the movies often get it wrong. How many rom-coms have you seen where one character, in the midst of wooing the leading guy or gal, drops the bomb that they’re in the midst of a divorce — but dating is just fine because they’re separated? In South Carolina, at least, that logic doesn’t add up. Unlike most other states, South Carolina doesn’t recognize “legal separation,” which means even if you and your partner live apart, you’re still considered legally married until your divorce, and dating or sleeping with someone else is off the table. That said, a few legal nuances can make the difference between separation and divorce confusing. While there’s no such thing as legal separation in South Carolina, couples living separate and apart (by the legal definition, which means they also have no intention of “resuming marital relations”) can file something called an Order of Separate Maintenance and Support in family court. While it’s only a temporary order and doesn’t end a marriage, it can help settle some issues for the time being, like child custody, visitation, and support; which spouse will remain in the marital home; who will be responsible for paying the mortgage and other home costs; closing joint accounts; allocating marital debt; transferring titles to personal property; spousal support; and health insurance.
The Order of Separate Maintenance and Support doesn’t cover retirement accounts or final decisions related to alimony — divorce is necessary for that. Still, for a couple not yet ready to commit to a divorce, or a partner seeking support for minor children in the window before a divorce is finalized, an Order of Separate Maintenance and Support can be beneficial. Filing for either an Order of Separate Maintenance and Support or a divorce is a big decision you shouldn’t make without an experienced family law attorney at your side.
