April 20, 2012

I think it is time! I am still working on being more mindful in the daily celebration of my meals, and what better way than to pay more attention to the seasons and the bounty of produce the one upon us now signals.

Yes, I think it is privilege. I have access to quality, whole food ingredients. I have access to a kitchen of my own in which to cook. I have acess to knowledge about making healthy eating choices. These are all advantages that enable to me to succeed in the challenge of eating #Unprocessed for the month of October.

I went to Caumsett State Park and hiked five miles, through tall grasses, around forests densely packed with tulip trees, honeysuckle, and wild rose, into the muddy salt marsh, along the rocky beach, up to the highest cliff, past a grand estate mansion, […]
