Rice and Broccoli for the Princess

Okay, last night we had rice and broccoli. Didn't go over well with me or D...princess liked it though! Going shopping later today because we are out of EVERYTHING! So I will be getting coupons together at some point...I'll post on here which ones I used and how much money I saved.

Vegetarian

Today I want to let you know what got me started on being vegetarian/vegan. Don't have a lot of time, but here goes.

My best friend loaned me a book. The China Study: The Most Comprehensive Study of Nutrition Ever Conducted and the Startling Implications for Diet, Weight Loss and Long-term Health. Shew what a mouthful!

Anyway, this book explains, in very understandable terms, how a plant-based diet is EXTREMELY healthy for you!

Tell you more later. I have to go to work.

My First Post on My First Blog!

Okay, I'm new to blogging. But I would like to help other people, and in the process, help myself. I have two children aged 2 1/2 years (my precious little girl; let's call her Princess) and 6 months (my equally precious little boy; we'll call him Little Man). I have a wonderful husband whom I love very much. Let's call him D.
I'm trying to eat healthier and am currently on a vegetarian/vegan kick. We'll see how long that lasts. Especially since D is a hunter/fisherman.
Princess is currently on a 'leave-a-stinky-mess-in-my-room-on-a-regular-basis' kick. Among other things. Hopefully she'll get through her terrible two's as fast as possible.
I'm still nursing Little Man, so he's a little clingy. And teething. Heaven help us!
My aim here is to write about things I'm doing to make my life - and my family's life - more healthy in food, cleaning products, and everything in general. Hopefully I can learn a lot in the process and help other people learn as well.
