Confessions of a Junkie

Posted by Heather |

So, here it goes.  I'll admit it.  I've long loved my Brown-sugar Cinnamon Pop-tarts, my Eggo Waffles, and my Frosted Mini Wheats for breakfast; my "healthy" Lean Pockets, my turkey sandwiches (on White Wonder Bread), and my Cheetos for lunch; my Oreo cookies, Ramen Noodles, and grilled cheese sandwiches for dinner.  Is that so bad?


I didn't think so, at least until recently.  I figured if the package said it was low fat or was something that looked healthy, that it was OK to eat.  Maybe I was wrong...

I think that redefining the way I look at food, and especially convenience food will hopefully make a lifelong change for the better.  I can do this!  We can do this! Eating a more traditional, and natural diet will be hard at first, but I hope to form some new and improved eating habits along the way.  I hope you'll join us for the adventure!

Confessions of a Foodie

Posted by Nicole |

My name is Nicole and I am a foodie. I love food, I love cooking food, I love the smell of food. You get the picture. I particularly enjoy cooking with fresh produce and trying new recipes. I try to make meals for my family from scratch and love baking anything and everything. I have a massive sweet tooth and that is partly what lead me to this blog and the upcoming challenge. I need to kick the refined sugar habit! There I've said it (*sigh of relief)! I know it it isn't good for me and I also know the habits I have are forming the way my husband and children feel about and consume food. So with them, my teeth and my health in mind I am commiting to changing the way I think about food, the way I buy and prepare my food and all the while still enjoy the inate pleasure of eating.

My friend Heather and I will attempt to pave the way of what can be an intimidating road of politically incorrect information and old - but - new methods of cooking. We hope you will follow along with us as we start a season of change!
