Enjoying "God's Natural, Organic, Whole Foods, Grown Locally, In Season"
Today (Friday 4/13) I’ll be sharing all my best time-saving tips at a free webinar — Traditional Food Time Savers. You’ll also hear from Jami @ EatNourishing.com (the free online traditional food recipe sharing site) — she’s sharing how she brings her young children into every kitchen task while keeping things efficient. In this post, I’m going to share five of my best tips, plus invite you to share yours. Come to the webinar so you can hear the rest!
I gave birth to my son Mikah, my third child, at home in 1999. He cried quite a bit, so we wondered if he might be in some kind of pain.

But that seemed unrelated to a noticeable neck weakness. He couldn’t hold his head up straight, nor could he turn it side to side.
I bumped into a vintage ad for margarine this morning, which led me on a hunt to find more. I was struck by how the processed food industry’s main marketing message seems to be that their foods are natural, have wonderful flavor, and are healthy. *cough cough* Some things don’t change, do they? I picked five of my “favorites” to share with you.
Learning to culture my own homemade dairy foods has been one of the most rewarding things I’ve ever done.

“A merry heart does good, like medicine, but a broken spirit dries the bones.” –Proverbs 17:22 What is a merry heart? Certainly it is a heart that’s happy. Happy because things are going well and life is grand? Could be. But most of us do not live that kind of life. We have struggles and challenges. God is clear that during our lives, we will experience our fair share of labors, cares, and tribulations. And still He tells us that a merry heart does us good. Which means it must be possible!
Lots of times we talk about the “how” of real food. How to do this, how to do that. But how often do we consider why? The “why” is often more important than the “how.” It gives us the motivation for all that we do, including how we prepare and eat foods. Here are my top twelve reasons for embracing real food… aka GNOWFGLINS.
Wonder how to get the most nutrition from the real foods you already eat? You're in the right place!
