My darlings, for a week, I've been focusing more on my eating habits, or rather, what types of food I'm actually consuming. I'm trying to go as organic as possible, with as much fresh ingredients as possible.
Of course, I've had a couple of sweets. Today, I munches on a few droplets of bittersweet chocolate chips and in the past several days, I've had Luna bars, but all in all, my diet consists of fruits, vegetables, the occasional seafood (like delicious mussels in a butter-white wine-garlic sauce), and never ever any red meat (and lots and lots of Greek yogurt).
I think it's so amazing to eat healthily. In the 21st century, Americans don't pay attention as much to what ingredient they are really digesting; they don't really know the beauty in fresh, leafy spinach or gleaming blackberries, and it's almost disheartening.
Additionally, they don't seem to understand the impact of portion control or the power of the homemade. Can you imagine the preservatives in pop tarts? Or frozen dinners? I can't fathom how these items can be designed for human consumption.
Maybe I'll craft something from my kitchen tomorrow, just to show how amazing home food can be!
