About that raw milk . . .

Raw Milk Sign

This is a post I hoped I’d never have to write. And honestly, I will admit that I considered not writing it. But I know that I have to. I owe it to you, after all I’ve written on this subject, to be completely honest about what has happened, so that you can make an [...]

Food Safety VS Nourishment

pay the farmer now or pay the doctor later

I’ve been thinking about this a lot lately, and it occurred to me that there are two completely different philosophies when it comes to food. Of course there are those who don’t think much about food at all, which I find rather sad. Yesterday I listened to this presentation by Joel Salatin called Dancing With [...]

Green Smoothie Recipe {Gluten Free}

Green-Smoothie

One of the hardest things about eating gluten free is finding something besides eggs to eat for breakfast. I love eggs as much as anyone can possibly love eggs, but even I don’t want to eat them every. single. morning. Besides, some days I want to eat them for lunch! (Love me some egg salad.) [...]

Food for Thought :: Can We Eat To Starve Cancer?

I rarely post videos because personally I don’t usually take the time to watch them. But this one is worth your 20 minutes. It gets really good about halfway through. Stick with him. Trust me.

breakfast cereals

Most “real foodies” — a term I loathe, but it gets my point across succinctly, and let’s face it, succinct is not my strong suit — avoid boxed breakfast cereals like the plague, and when I hopped on that real food train, I promptly removed breakfast cereals from our pantry as well. It didn’t take [...]

Breakfast Woes

This post is for all of you who hate me when I tell you what my kids eat for dinner. Mushrooms, check! Spinach, check! Brussels sprouts, check! Kale, check! Onions, check! Meat, veggies, soup, potatoes, rice… you name it, they eat it. Not to say that all 3 kids eat everything, but they all have [...]

{Top Ten} Reasons to Shop the Farmers’ Market

shopping at the farmers' market

Just because it’s fall doesn’t mean Farmers’ Market Days are over. Most farmers’ markets are open well into fall and some even have winter hours. Fall is harvest time! There is still plenty of local bounty to behold, so make sure to make a Farmers’ Market trip part of your weekly schedule. My family loves [...]

10 Tips for Shopping the Farmers’ Market

The Early Bird Gets the Worm Strawberries Saturday morning I got up bright and early to go to the farmers’ market. I knew the first crop of this season’s local strawberries was in, and I didn’t want them to get sold out before I got there. They are open from 9 to 1, and I [...]

The Real Food I Buy and Where I Buy It

simple food for spring

At first I was just going to link to Stephanie’s post, The Nitty-Gritty on The Real Food I Buy and Where I Buy It, in my Saturday Links and Shout Outs post, but then I thought, why not write my own? It is always interesting to me what other “real foodies” (I hate that term, [...]
