Fast forward thirty years and I am in a new world. Gone are the casseroles filled with cream of mushroom soup because I am lactose intolerant. Canned vegetables have been replaced with my CSA (Community Support Agriculture) shares. Forget Hamburger Helper because my husband and I are on a quest to completely eliminate processed foods from our diet. Do I totally know what I am doing? I wish.
Julia Child once said: “The only real stumbling block is fear of failure. In cooking you’ve got to have a what-the-hell attitude.” Julia and I agree on this. What’s the worst that could happen? Dinner doesn’t turn out and you order Chinese: Steamed vegetables with brown sauce on the side, no rice and steamed dumplings for the really bad days (not that we order that often or anything).
On the blog I hope to share with you our journey towards whole foods, clean eating, and learning how to cook. Be prepared to see mistakes, learn a little about healthy eating, and maybe not feel so bad when something goes wrong in your own kitchen. As my mother says, “It happens. Get over it. Have some toast.”
