I’m new to this whole bread-making thing. Although my childhood was filled with good homemade foods, bread was not really one of the things that came out of our oven. The bread I do remember making was generally sweet (like banana bread or something) and wasn’t a regular thing...

I thought today I could just share a few of the things that I follow or have caught my eye lately- there are so many awesome people out there doing unique and interesting things in the food world.

First- this awesome video on pickling. This video is a great introduction...

I often hear that people don’t think they can cook- or that they don’t think they can cook much from scratch. They associate homemade and nourishing foods with a great deal of hassle and prep and money. Now I won’t lie and say that it’s always easier. I definitely...

My last food post was about raw milk. I wrote that post in part to spread awareness about it, but also in part because it’s a food item that is currently in danger. In the past month there were several members of my raw milk cooperative that got sick....

You’ll have to forgive my late posting- I was at a birth all Tuesday into Wednesday morning, so I was zonked and didn’t remember. Even if I had, I likely wouldn’t have had the mental energy to write it. So, here it is, fresh and ready.

So I thought I’d post a little about what it is we actually eat around here, although it changes so much all the time (seasonally, my mood, etc) that I’m not sure how representative it’ll be. I plan to do this "week in food" every so often to see...

Okay, so I was going to do a week in food, but I got sick and lost all my energy. We also got treated to dinner a few times, plus ate too big and too late a lunch on one of the days (resulting in eating potato wedges with...

I LOVE KOMBUCHA! Kombucha was really my first introduction to the world of bacteria/yeast-enhanced foods (unless you count yogurt), and it certainly opened my eyes. I first tried the stuff at a friend’s mother’s house. This woman introduced us to the world of Weston A. Price, which kind...

I’m finding that cultured food is really the way to go- and if you don’t have any in your diet, you’re really missing out. They are full of beneficial micro-organisms that do everything from neutralizing anti-nutrients to making food more digestible and vitamins more available. Plus, they inoculate your system with...
