and so we begin


Okay, I'm back again. Bread takes too long and I am too tired and I should probably do laundry instead (but I won't!). As the queen of procrastination, I present to you photographic evidence of my Whole Foods shopping trip this afternoon!

This is part 1...

Note the "Cranberry 100% Juice" that I bought and NOT "100% Cranberry Juice"! :)

Oh, and that Land O' Lakes is whole spreadable butter - ingredients: sweet cream and olive oil and salt.

And I am not exactly sure why I bought Tofu...When I got back from Japan, I vowed to eat 'more Asian' (oh yeah, prepared to be assaulted with that too!) and there was a lot of Tofu in Japan...and there are some Tofu recipes in my new cookbooks. And Tofu is a plant sourced protein...we shall see! I want to be clear that I am not going vegetarian here - I cannot give up chicken - like at all! I am ever so excited because after seeing Food Inc and deciding to never eat mass, factory farmed chicken ever again (without an idea of where to get real-farmed chicken) I met the guy from Wadson's Farms - which is an Organic Farm in Bermuda - an Organic Farm in Bermuda that is getting into Organic Meats thank you very much! I have to wait til Saturday to get my CHICKEN and I have to have protein until then (one can only eat so many beans, nuts, and eggs (which are free-range local eggs btw)) so, I had to try the Tofu thing.

Ok...so the cereal has some stuff in the ingredients that I cannot pronounce...

And yay- I bought yeast...I am going to try my hand at baking bread! I have never made real bread before - I am too excited!


More Whole Food madness...oh, I guess I should highlight the grew-out-of-the-ground foods otherwise known as vegetables...on the far right see the can of soup - Amy's brand has some really great foods (especially the frozen foods, like organic PIZZA). AND the family that started Amy's still owns and operates Amy's - and I can pronounce everything on the ingredient lists!The goal here is to make most of my food for myself. But, I had to get something to eat in the meantime :)


Bananas that grew in the tree in my backyard (can't get any better than that! Wish I could grow ALL my food!)
