Thanks deary! I don't know how to cook much, and I'm in college so I dont has as many cookware and whatnot. I am trying to accumulate stuff. my next goal is to get a juicer.

what about the soy and gmo scare?

i've never been a hamburger person! lol. I do like fries but i bake them or fry in healthy organic oils like penut oil or almond oil. don't eat them as much.I have been FAST FOOD FREE since Christmas, and going strong! I watched Super Size me and it made me more determined to never break my vow, ever.

I need a good source of unpasteurized butter.

Heather, do I EVER understand the longing thing!

I've learned, with time, to distinguish between that longing and craving. If a craving goes on for days and I can't figure out what in that food that my body is wanting, I go get it.

The emotional ties to foods can become overwhelming at times. Giving in to those and seeing how you feel the next day is convincing in and of itself that it's bad for you.

Craving Chinese? Cook your own and KNOW there's no MSG in there. Cook it from organic sources, read the labels of soy sauce or nama shoyu that doesn't have MSG, "natural flavors", "spices", "yeast-this-that-or-the-other"

Transitioning into a holistic lifestyle, BETTER CHOICES is important. Here's one example:
trying to get off beef?
have a crazy craving for a hamburger?
why not instead of a burger and fries, make a hamburger steak, baked potato (use goat butter, plain organic yogurt, feta or some goat cheese) and a huge organic salad.
