Grocery Trip

Well, lots learned this week! I went to 2 health food stores this week. I compared prices, and bought what I needed. I have decided to ease into the whole foods by just restocking what I need as organic/natural products. I just can't see myself throwing out all the food that I have(even though I know it is not great for me). Funny thing was that I noticed some of the items in the health food store were also at Wal-Mart and the Dollar Store. So, now I just have to decide where to get what. I may be making three trips to the store for a while, but I will get there. I did purchase some elderberry juice. This is suppose to have healing properties for flu-like symptoms. So, I added it to my "Pharmacy". We had a wonderful salad and barbque chicken for dinner last night - and it felt good to know that it was all free-range, organic foods:)

Till later......

Here we go! The start of a new begining!

OK, so, here we go - I have been reading a lot on natural/whole foods. I want to eat right, and healthy. I have been on a mission for some time to get the junk out of our household, and now I am determined. We have already made the switch to honey rather than processed sugar. For many reasons, but you body digests honey much easier and motabilizes the honey much better than processed sugar. I am searching for grass fed beef and free range chickens now. I think I have a source for raw milk and organic fruits and vegetables, but we will see how that pans out. So, from this point on, I am going to be accountable for the JUNK that goes not only into my body, but also by family's! I am starting with the foods we take in first, then will move to household products along the way(those are easier to change - no feedback from the family:)
