However, despite believing that the foods that God created for people to eat had to be better for people than the foods man created himself, for either time or money reasons I have not always fed myself or my family according to my beliefs. Bad Mom.
Now I am home and have more time to cook and less money to eat out. I have been learning to cook new things from scratch and started wondering how to research what my gut tells me. I have started by looking at other blogs for ideas and recipes.
I’ve learned to make chicken and beef broth, yogurt, egg noodles, bread and tortillas. I have even made bagels, cakes, pretzels, cinnamon rolls, croissants, graham crackers, and copy cat “wheat thins”.
I have started a compost pile.
And I tried to start carrots and lettuce in the garden. Twice. I have a lot of learning to do. And I plan to share my trials, failures, and successes here with you. Hopefully you will tell me what you are doing and trying and why so I can catch up with you.
I know there are a lot of blogs out there where others are sharing on these topics. But here are my favorites so far:
