You Are What You Eat

             YOU ARE WHAT YOU EAT!

Lately, I have been obsessed with the thought of eating much healthier.  But not in a strictly low-fat kind of way, but in a non-processed food kind of way.  If I had all the time in the world (and no job!) I would make everything we eat from scratch.  I get such a HUGE sense of satisfaction from knowing what kind of ingrediants are going into my body.  And I love to cook and bake. 

So I have been taking baby steps in my diet.  I have switched some foods over to organic.  These are mostly eggs and milk.  I try to concentrate more on getting local produce rather than organic produce if I can.  It hasn’t been as great of an expense hike as I thought it would be.  So it has been pretty painless thus far. 

And this weekend… I venture into the world of breads!  I will let you know how it goes.  I am trying my hand at making my own tortiallas and pita breads!  They are so awful in this corner of the world so I am going to start making my own.  Oh and cookies for my small group, since I am in charge of snack.  Snickerdoodles I am thinking – soooo good. 

 

PS – Alita, bible study went great.  That is the small group I am making cookies for – they are a lovely group of girls! 

As for the rest of you, I know you are reading, I see you! : )  Feel free to comment about what else I should take on in my future culinary adventures!
