I decided on Saturday that I was going to eat "real food." Actually I started thinking about it a few weeks ago, and a few years ago (before Jack) I did eat that way. I have slowly been moving back to a less processed diet. However, even I am annoyed at my new hippy ways. I really dislike people who preach about their healthy lifestyle being better than my sugar recipes.
I spent ALL day Saturday cooking, baking, juicing, and making a HUGE mess. Jim helped tackle the project and the mess. We ran the dishwasher 3 times on Saturday, it needed a 4th go around, but we were too exhausted to empty any more dishes. Sweet Lilly took pictures to document my mess (the rest were deleted).
The kitchen finally arrived at clean status Monday morning. A lot of the food I made ended up in the trash because it was disgusting.
Last week I made whole wheat pancakes, crackers, and whole wheat tortillas, all a HUGE success. Even Jack ate them all. I will continue to make those regularly, only because there were delicious, not because they are super healthy. If you are like me and despise whole wheat and crave delicious nutritionally void white flour, I found that a white 100% whole wheat flour exists.
Anyway, that is my new focus now, I am pretty annoyed with myself and my hippy ways. Here are some cute pictures of Jack on the trampoline to soften the hippy ways. (Clothes from the gap washed in Tide detergent which has lots of chemicals. See, I am really not a whole lot of hippy.)

I am proud of your hippy ways and your attempts to feed my grandchildren nutritiously. Is Jack's hairdo a result of trampoline contact?
yes, he kept rolling away from me when I tried to get him off, so I went in the house and got the camera.
I like your hippy ways, I wish I could eat some of that delicious food you're making! Instead, I will eat some oreos.
