Whoops, left the comment on the wrong entry. Anyway, I left my blog link here about buying and using a local natural turkey. It’s the last two entries on my blog about ‘bigbird’.

We just got our first CSA share from our farmer this week, and I blogged about the picnic we enjoyed using some of the things we got.

hi Shannon, thanks for your comment on my blog. You know I always love your ‘food for thought’. The biggest difference in my diet lately has been the total elimination of sugar. I do love to bake so I have not been doing much of that these days. I don’t miss it all all. I LOVE not having the craving after eating a meal for something sweet. Taking the place of that sugar is WAY more veggies. (organic). Some fruit but not a ton and more nuts and seeds. I have cut back on diary but not totally eliminated it. Now, when I do eat meat – it is only pastured meat. Grains – yes (let me think about that soaking and sprouting again – I know I should) Eggs, yes! that is why we have chickens now. I am struggling with chicken. It is weird for me to eat it since we got the chickens. although I saw a recipe picture the other day and it had chicken. It looked good. I can’t call myself anything right now. I have always said I eat a whole foods diet. Now, more than ever I really am though. I feel like this is “my diet – my plan”.

I don’t know how you do it without grains. that would take a lot of will power for me. I do applaud your efforts. And, I think it is totally healthy to not eat grains and to eat grains.

great minds think a like : )

I do need to learn more about your supplements and such.

Ugh — typo.

That was supposed to read “Hope that meets the guidelines”, not “how…”

Hi Shannon,
I linked up my 5 favorite vegan recipes…how that meets the guidelines.

For me, eating (mostly) vegan is my first step to getting to my Food Roots. Now –thanks to you– I’m starting to pay attention to WHERE my produce comes from.

We’ve started our seedlings for our vegetable garden, but this is something we’ve always done. A homegrown tomato always tastes better!
