Healthy Mission

During the past week, I was on a bit of a mission.  It started trying to look for ways to help our 2 year old sleep better.  The past few weeks his nose has been getting quite stuffy in the middle of the night , which is waking him  up 3-6 times a night.  He also has little red bumps all over his upper arms and thighs, and on his cheeks.  Exzema??  So I was trying to figure out if allergies could be the cause.  I had been doing some random reading on the internet a few weeks ago, and one site had recommended a book, " Gut and Psychology Syndrome" (or something with a title similar to that).  I had decided to try and get in on Kindle, but it is not available in that version.  Recommendations list associated with that book had a cookbook that followed the principles discussed.  But that too, was no available on Kindle.  I came across another book that seemed to discuss similar things.

I read this book in about 2-3 days (which I don't typically do).  It has inspired me to attempt to make our foods more natural and free from so many toxins, get back to the way people and cultures ate even as short a time ago as my grandparents, but even prior to that.  I want to get raw milk, have gotten raw honey, have already gotten the healthy chicken and made my own chicken stock, and have plans to make more chicken stock, beef stock, cream, butter, cream cheese, and possibly yoguurt.  The book was so interesting, and such a simple thought to step back and prepare things as they once were before processed foods and before our lives became so hurried.

I know it will take me awhile to get quicker at preparing these foods, and I will have to make the effort to really prepare these foods as we should.  I am lucky to have a husband who is game for trying my new ventures, but I am truly hoping to keep my family healthy and full of energy.  Here is to our healthy journey!
