Welcome to the new “A Better Bag of Groceries” blog

Next-chapter

A Better Bag of Groceries, created by NuVal’s former blogger Melissa, has been a staple in this corner of the websphere for more than three years. As the driving force behind it, Melissa took this site from scratch into a destination site that now receives tens of thousands of hits each month. This is all from someone who had never blogged before, and who took this assignment as an experiment to see what NuVal could do in social media. By being honest and helpful

Not everything lasts forever, unfortunately, and Melissa has moved on to NuVal’s sister company. We’re sorry to see her go, and happy for her new opportunity, but most of all, we’re grateful for all her hard work.

However, we’re excited to move on to the blog’s second chapter. We’re still committed to bring you great advice, guidance and recipes, all from the team that is trying to revolutionize the way we think about food, one NuVal Score at a time.

So what to expect in the new blog?  

Instead of having one voice (with the occasional guest) as was done in the past, the blog will now have a number of different bloggers with their own takes on nutrition, exercise, food, recipes, and whatever else we can think of. Our writers will include Elizabeth Anderson, our lead Dietitian. She’ll be sharing with you a lot of information about health and nutrition, and the occasional recipe as well! She’ll also be able to give you some advice from a vegetarian’s standpoint. We will continue the “Keane Observations” series, and we will also hear from others who have been featured here before but will now be a returning feature on the blog (we don’t want to spoil the surprise!)

So, we hope you continue to have fun reading the blog, and join us as we unload an entirely new bag of groceries!

    Hi – It’s Melissa here! Thanks Rob – for that beautiful segue into the next chapter of A Better Bag of Groceries. I want everyone to know that I helped plan the future of the blog, hand-picking the writers who would take over “my baby.” They are all wonderful friends of the blog. Each contributor brings a little bit of “Melissa” to this next chapter. They are moms, dads, fitness experts, athletes, chefs and nutrition experts. I’ll be joining in on the discussion in the comments section as often as I can. And I’ve been asked to guest-post too! I can’t wait to fill you in on my next adventure. Thanks to everyone for all of the amazing comments yesterday. My heart is full!
    Love,
    Melissa
