Thanks for leaving a comment. It's a constant struggle not to spread gossip even when we are sorry for the plight of the people whose stories we spread.

I fail miserably in this area. But you have certainly given me food for thought. Hopefully next time a hear some gossip I will be able to stop and ask myself your second question.
Cheers

I'm eating Divine 70% Dark Chocolate w/Raspberries. It's fair trade certified, and the ingredients are as follows:
cocoa mass, sugar, cocoa butter, freeze dried raspberry granules, soya lecithin, natural raspberry flavor, vanilla

It's YUMMY (and I've convinced myself it is my duty to eat it in order to support fair trade organizations..ha)

Great article. Really like the customizable tshirt. Pretty funny running around with a tshirt that your loved one designed! The other ideas are great too but I simply like the tshirts best.

A good PB&J never hurt anyone - just make it "from scratch."
And carbs - who doesn't love them? I think you hit it the nail on the head
when you said - "respect for food and ourselves." Thanks for commenting.

What a great post. I need this reminder as I have been slack lately on the eating front. I am such an emotional eater but at the same time I have a vegetable garden and love my vegetables and fruit too. Its the carbs I do not control so well. Ah well, I wonder if most kids know that food does not come in plastic or packets. That worries me more than anything. Still, the world is focused on it and that can only be a good thing. And your salad sounded devine - right up my alley, even though the P&J sandwich sounded good too....all it takes is a bit of effort and a respect for food and ourselves. I am constantly working on it.

Yes, you can save the water and give it to your plants. You MUST try steel cut oat - yum yum! And, put a paper towel in with your stored lettuce and buy yourself just a bit more time in the frige.

That was a fun post! Thanks! I just really, plain, old LIKED reading that.

A chocolatier in every neighborhood would be grand!
Reading packages is scary. I drink water or home-brewed tea 80% of the time but was out the other day and grabbed a bottle of green tea. Had paid for it before I looked at it. There were four separate ingredients just for flavor-enhancement. I didn't in up drinking any of the bottle.
Thanks for leaving a comment.

Its all kind of scary hey? We need to look but I hate turning the packet over sometimes. In fact if we could live without packet or tinned anything we would be very healthy.
