Food For Thought

I am so aware of what goes into our food these days and have made a very conscious effort to go back to real food. I have worked to eliminate preservatives, artificial colors, artificial flavors, artificial sweeteners, pesticides...also not purchasing 'food like substances' (items that resemble food but are engineered from corn and other above listed no-nos).

It hasn't been easy. Many think of me as a 'Food Nazi' and I can often at time be a fun killer as I check labels to special treat Grandma tries to offer the kids. As I move more and more in the direct of wholesome goodness...I am starting feel the benefits - how I feel, how the kids behave, how energized we are...just feel better and healthier.

I have also noticed, the food itself is trying to let me know that I am doing the right thing.

Our farm fresh organic eggs - smiled back at me!!

The Organic Heavy Whipping Cream made a heart shape as I prepared Valentine's breakfast.

All Natural, Healthy, Organic...As it was intended.

This was a great way to show how much I really do love my children

Sitting down to dinner with these two healthy and happy kids is a great reward too!!!
