Earth-shattering, right?
But really, have you seen this article? Or this one?
Basically, my plan will involve eating grain fed meats/poultry, as much organic or local produce and dairy as possible, and making as much of as our food as we can. I don't really ever need to buy a bread product again (especially with the sourdough starter we've acquired)! Jamund loves telling people that "Everything you can buy, you can make—except breakfast cereal, really." But actually, if we're talking rice or wheat cereal, that's what the Vita Mix is for!
Putting this plan into action will obviously require a bit more funding than goes into our current groceries, but it's really worth it—especially if you believe all the news and research that attributes some cancers and other issues (ADHD, etc.) to diet, pesticides, etc.
My thoughts: go with Winder Farms for our weekly necessities (milk, eggs, produce)—delivered right to our door once a week (eliminating frequent grocery store trips!) and visit our not-so-but-sort-of local Sunflower Farmers Market or Costco for monthly items or other things Winder Farms doesn't carry or charges a lot for (read: must continue to fuel my addiction to delicious all natural Greek yogurt, get most likely cheaper grain fed meat...)
We'll give it a try and see how it goes!
Hopefully it will prevent weekly trips to Wal-Mart for groceries (seeing as our town is lacking in quality grocery stores)... but when I do need to go to Wal-Mart for medications, etc., I would love to avoid using the car (it's only about 2 miles away) in favor of this (once Simon is old enough to sit in it):
Sigh. Maybe I can save up gas money to be able to afford one someday. Click here to see other colors from Madsen Cycles.
