About

Several years ago, I had some health problems that were not going away. I talked to someone who told me about visiting a master herbalist. So, I visited with a master herbalist, who, in addition to herbs, suggested that I change my diet. He told me to take out all white flour, white sugar, eat less meat and take out dairy. I sat there, after talking to him, thinking. How in the world am I going to do this? What am I going to eat? I had no clue where to go or what to do to feed myself and my husband. However, having a tendency to jump in head first without thinking too much about creating a plan, I ended up pretty much starving myself and my husband. That was our first experience with going mostly vegan. We failed ... not completely though. Over the next few years we learned a lot. We also met a lot of people along the way who have given us helpful tips to make the transition a little bit easier. I also have to say that the internet has been helpful in finding recipes and ideas of things I can eat and ways I can substitute. This blog is to hopefully share with you our journey into a more healthy lifestyle. I hope that it is also helpful to those who are looking to make some changes to their diet. This blog will provide tips, but mostly recipes of things we are eating and experimenting with so that you don't feel like you can't eat anything. It's to help you be successful. Please share your successes with any of the recipes or anything that you have done to improve upon the recipes provided. I would love to hear about it and so would others who pass through. Thanks for reading!
