So Good,.. |
No relationship worth having is "give, give, give..." There has got to be some sort of reciprocity. Such is the case with a friend of mine. I help her garden, and she helps me get back on track with my eating. Wow! I never met a real raw food specialist before!

Anyhow, lets take it back about 2 years. I owned the webpage GoodStewards.net, a site where I would give healthy eating tips and have people sign up for tours at local markets and health food stores. I did 80% of my shopping at the farmers market, I knew the nutrition facts on a plethora of items, and neither of my children had eaten "baby food." I cooked healthy balanced meals, and wood put a portion in the food processor for my babies. I even made all of my household cleaners, creams and lotions.

Kale Salad with Avacado Lime Dressing. Thanks NK for the recipe! |
What happened? Glad you asked. Life happened. the teacher salary has
been in the same place for the last 7 years. Not what we planned at all.
So I went back to work. Now we eat whats most convenient. The kids have
a pallet for processed foods and so does the hubby. I buy natural
cleaners. No Goodstewards.net. Someone bought it (and wants to sell it
for a small fortune). I might make it to the farmers market every other
month,.. SHAME!
I would like to give a shout out to all working moms who work
hard to balance home, kids, and hubby (also to those without a hubby) be
strong girl, God's grace is sufficient,...trust Him). I must also
acknowledge the At-Home-Moms! That was some of the hardest work I had
ever done (and loved!).
So, I'm Womanning up! I'm doing the best I can to make sure my family is eating right, and fighting against the (typical) USA trained pallets to enjoy healthy foods.
I would love some healthier recipes!
