Glad to see you back. And yes, slow and steady makes for lasting change. :)

I’ve been dipping my toe back into the blogging world ever so slowly…just LOVED your post (I missed you, by the way…) and I am looking forward to reading the book. I just finished a book on Living Foods…in the last two years my diet has been going WAY down hill…and my husband and I have just taken a good look at our eating habits and are saying “Oy. SO not good.” and are trying to make some changes. What you said about making slow changes is good. I think that’s how habits are made. Transition one thing at a time maybe?
Anyway…enjoyed the post very much!

I admit my heart just cheered reading this. I am so freaked out by all the plastic in the grocery stores. I shit you not, I don’t even GO anymore. On the rare occasions we do, we avoid the middle sections so I really have been out of touch with the CRAP they’re selling our children. THE exception for me is Trader Joe’s.

Links I think you will love me for:

There was an interview with the author on democracynow.org yesterday. The author describes amazing, unheard of fruit from all over the world, with various implications to US businesses, etc.

I’m keeping B&N in business lately.

It’s so funny you should post about this. Mom #2 and I have been having this VERY SAME conversation the past few weeks. I’m so glad we homeschool too. It makes me feel like I can do it. Ordinarily I would just give it a thought and then go back to the norm, but having already shaken myself away from the system one time, I’m convinced that I can really do this.

Keep us posted on your journey, and I’ll keep you posted on mine. We’ll be RegularAdoptedSisterGirls ;-) .

This book will keep you up late at night. Even after you’re done reading it. :)

And kitten — HI GIRL!!!!! Where’ve you been lately? :)
