Hi there, peeps. Are you eating your veggies? I just found this cool food rule, though it’s really nothing new. But, here it is:
Eat more S.O.U.L. food: Seasonal, Organic, Unprocessed, and Locally grown! Why? Greater nutritional value. Uncontaminated by pesticides and harmful chemicals. Grown without genetically modified organisms. Grown locally to reduce sprays across state lines (I didn’t know this happened anyway!). Fresher because it isn’t spending days being transported on a truck.
This isn’t always easy, but when you can, it’s the way to go! The picture is of an amazing wrap (with strawberries, avocado, and feta) I had at a place called Roots that no longer has their actual restaurant, but apparently goes to the farmers markets now. The two women who run it make delicious, healthy food!
That wrap looks great - that's something I would order on a menu. I traveled to Wisconsin this summer and the people there call themselves "localvores". Buy and eat only local grown foods, most raised chickens, the Piggly Wiggly the only market around for staples. Makes me rethink my life style.

ReplyDeleteLove your description of "bloom where you are planted", I've thought of that phase several times since reading that on your blog.
May I just say: yum! Is that the place in O.B.? Bummer that they're not there anymore...
ReplyDeleteThat looks SO GOOD!
ReplyDeleteStrawberries AND avocados,holy cow!
Thats like two of my favorite things.
Isn't that the place you and I had our last lunch before I moved to Japan-land? I bought my SD artwork there and the food was so DELISH! I hope I get to move back to SD one day! Miss you!
