This reading has really made me think about what I eat, where my food comes from, what I can do to be better to my body and the environment.
I also realized just how addicted I am to sugar. I eat it. A. lot.
So, I'm giving it up for a bit. I'm on a challenge to eat as naturally as possible. (Which, I am beginning to realize is much more difficult than one would think!)
Posting it here, will mean: 1. I am accountable to you on this new "endeavor" and 2. I'll be writing on a more regular basis! :p
But, in all seriousness. I would highly recommend these books. It's important to know what we're eating. (And what the government agencies aren't telling us.) And if you only have time for one of these books, I'd nominate Food Matters. It's shorter than Omnivore's Dilemma but gives the same information.
It'll be a challenge, I'm sure but I'm up for it. :o)

You read Skinny Bitch! I would love to say 'let's take this journey together,' but I love you and I don't want to do or say anything I may regret in my sugar-less delerium. (you've yet to see that side of me; she's rather ugly) I like you too much! That said, I have confidence that by May, we will feel no guilt for going to the dinner, as the rest of what we eat that weekend will be, you know, *food*.
