Food Matters - You Are What You Eat
Oh, Let's All Just Rejoice
The Food We Eat
My friend, Stephanie who blogs at Keeper of the Home has another great video on her blog. I just had to post it here.
This video reveals the reality of the food you eat - so, check this out! I'd love to know your thoughts!
This is exactly why we're gardening and more!

Busy Hands
In case you've noticed, I've not blogged much lately. In case you wonder why - it's because my hands are busy on random and necessary home front projects. Some projects left undone a year ago. I know. I know. Shoulda, woulda, coulda - it's just life sometimes.
It's amazing just how much one woman can acomplish within her home when she isn't on the computer! Amazing.
Yesterday, I spent about five hours in my garden. Gardens are lovely, but need a boat load of tending - in order for there to be fruit, things must be pruned, pinched, guided, given extra water and good nutrients. Kinda like children and training them.
In and out of those outside hours I also made the BEST - I'm talking the BEST ever lemon poppy seed muffins. One little four year old wants to have a tea party and I thought I'd make scones - until I found this recipe (another post).
I also made amazing apple crisp, and started a batch of home made whole wheat bread with a new recipe that I'm loving (another post).
All this to say, is that I'll be in and out of blogging as I'm realizing how far more productive I can be with my time by keeping my hands busy - not on the lap top.
What about you?

Sunday Afternoon - Celebrating 20 Little Things
When life tries to suck me into its crazies I find that pondering the little life things encourage me, inspire me and is really such good feminine soul therapy.
So, in case you're in a funk because of the economy, the swine flu, sickness, sadness or anything else, here's my Sunday Afternoon: Celebrating 20 Little Things that just might put a smile on your face. I'd love to know your 20 Little Things that you celebrate!
1. Watching the sweat on my husband's brow as he works hard in our garden - for me.
2. Little ones in my midst - the spontaneity of a granddaughter who want to have a tea party with the old china in the china cabinet. So, I do.
3. Flowers and eating them.
4. A cool gentle breeze - reminds me that God's in control, midst it all.
5. A great cup of coffee! And a double joy is sharing it with my husband.
6. My bed. I love my bed and I especially love to snuggle with my husband in my bed!
7. Mornings. I love mornings. It's new, it's fresh and God's mercy is right there for the grabbing.
8. Kissing babies lips off. Yup. I do.
9. The Beach. The beach - I Love WATER!!!!!!
10. Family and friends. When I think of their faces I see the how invaluable they are to me.
11. The spared life of my brother Rick.
12. Gardening. Gardening so makes me happy.
13. A girl's lunch at Arcadia Farms and breakfast at Wild Flower.
14. Listening to grandchildren talk about life.
15. The legacy from which I've come.
16. Thinking about my parent's Love Story and remembering their faces.
17. Being a blessing to others and thinking about how to give to others.
18. Staring at my husband. I love to watch him without him knowing I'm doing that.
19. Creating, inspiring and influencing others.
20. Yellow. I love yellow and I love blue.
