The best gift you can give yourself.

It's the season of giving, and I want you to give your SELF something amazing....and that is the gift of ...cooking your own food. Sounds pretty simple and not very exciting, but let's elaborate on this for a minute...
I believe that cooking your own food celebrates self-respect. Making your own meals is very important, especially when you are trying to eat better or become healthier, overall. The "food" available to us in grocery stores these days, is not FOOD at all. It's a packaged food~like product, probably created in a lab (really), by mixing lots of other food~like products and chemicals together(really, seriously). It's NOT food.
When you cook your own food (out of real, whole foods NOT in a package), you have control of what you put into your body. This may not sound like a big deal, but really, it is. The most important thing you can do for yourself now and in the future is to be eating real, clean, organic when possible fresh vegetables and fruit and humanely raised and pastured meats. Yes, it's more expensive, but it is also an investment into your health, and that of your family.
Most of the disease that riddles our society today can be prevented from eating a healthy diet, comprised of foods that are in the perimeter of the grocery store. You've heard this before....it's true. If you need help making the change into a more healthful, REAL food diet, please contact me. I would be happy to help you, it's my passion, after all. :)  Shop for your own real food, cook it yourself, then truly appreciate the meal you create. Your body will love you for it and you will feel so much better! Merry Christmas to yourself!!!
