Going Organic

I love the idea of eating organic...I feel good about eating and I feel great about feeding my family. We tend to eat a certain way already, given O man's allergies. There's not a lot of processed food that you can buy that is dairy, soy, egg, and nut free, so we eat a lot of simple foods.

One of the best things about life in the military is meeting some really amazing women (and men). One of those women is about to publish a book, with the same title as her website, Deliciously Organic. I can't say enough good things about her blog...I really love it. I confessed to her that I felt like I was cyber-stalking her...low on the cool points scale, but she has really helped me to change the way we eat. Her advice to me (and it totally makes sense) is to make small changes every week. My latest small change is to slowly cut out high fructose corn syrup from our diet. Tim really loves bagels in the morning, so I made a batch the other day. They were GREAT, but completely made from white bread flour. So, I'm going to make a different recipe from a mix of white/wheat flour. I'll post the results : )
