In reply to Karen Stultz. So agree with you, Karen, especially about that the added time to shop (studying labels takes time!) gets shorter over time. Sticking to the perimeter aisles and only venturing down the interior ones (with most shelves stuffed with overly processed "fake" foods helps a lot. Thanks for reminding me about your new vertical garden planter. Sounds like things are growing well.

In reply to Chef Dennis. It definitely helps in my life having a loving spouse who is interested in good food and eating well as I am.

Hi Kat,
Very well said…when we start taking back our control of what we eat, make good choices “For Me” rather than feeling deprived, because someone else said we can’t eat something “ever again” is not the way to create a healthy living lifestyle. As Chef Dennis said, it takes a bit more time in the store…but that is just initially. After one discovers where the “good” foods are located and what they are, shopping does not take any longer. Even better from your own on your deck, or patio. We have a vertical garden, on our deck, that we enjoy the vegetables and herbs from almost every night, and we know what went into it 🙂

I couldn’t have said it any better Kat. Be conscious. Be aware. Choose wisely. The thing I’ve found to be true is when you are more aware when you shop it does take more time in the store. But trust me it is well worth the time. The extra minutes you spent shopping could add years to your life. Keep up the good work Kat.
