Half way through our first year!

Wow!

Six more months to completely unprocessed eating.  It is possible!

Here are the foods we still have left to remove from our diets:

August: soy foods – probably should have eliminated this earlier, but I still do like to have an occasional tofurkey sandwich.

September: breads/rolls/etc.  - we usually make most of our own already, so this should be an easy one

October: canned foods and pasta – there are too many preservatives used in those canned tomatoes I still buy.  Hopefully we’ll get enough tomatoes from our garden that I’ll be able to can my own!

November: experiments with beer making – this is just a fun one because we’ll officially be unprocessed in our eating.

December: cheese experiments – another fun month.  I’ve always wanted to try making our own cheese but this is not something we plan to make ourselves in the future.

You’ll notice that I’ve left July off of this list.  That’s because July’s challenge will be learning how to eat well while traveling.  It is always more difficult to eat well when you are not at home.  Stay tuned for tips!  (That is if I survive 15 hours in a car with the twins.  ;) )
