Been too long since I posted last. I haven't kept up with my blog like I wanted. I'm hoping to change that this year. I recently had my laptop crash and I lost a whole year of photos, videos, files, etc. I was not a happy momma! I can't get those moments back, so I've vowed to get a huge hard drive and start backing up my stuff every week. I never want that to happen again.
There's been some changes in my life recently. People would probably think I've gone crazy! I have completely revamped our lifestyle. We've really changed our way of eating. Gone are the days where I open a box and get dinner out of it. Instead I have developed a real food approach to our eating. I basically cook everything from scratch. I open very few cans of food (most of it is my own canned goods that I put away this summer). You can call me an Amish wannabe lol! We haven't bought a loaf of bread in months. What you say! How do you eat sandwiches? I have a secret! Don't tell anyone, are you ready? I make my own! And I don't mean go to the store and buy a bag of flour and use my bread machine like I used to. NO! I'm talking, grind my own flour, make my dough, knead my dough, let my dough rise, bake my dough and eat some of the best bread in the world stuff.
See I told you I was crazy:)
I know you are wondering, why. Well I realized something this past year. I'm not getting any younger. I feel like I have wasted years and years of my life eating crap. My weight has suffered because of it. My fertility is ruined because of it. I don't want my kids to grow up making all the bad choices I did about food. I want to train them while they are young. There is so much to learn about health and nutrition that we have completely threw by the wayside for the sake of convenience. My children deserve better than me running around feeding them junk because it's easy.
Over the next few weeks I will attempt to show you what our life looks like. From homeschooling, to cooking and living in our little abode. And yes when I say little, I mean 740 sq. ft little!
