Happy Friday Everyone! Now that I have officially launched the new Sweet Potatoes and Social Change Facebook page, I have decided to start a new reoccurring Friday post entitles Friday Facebook Recap. Each week, this will give little snippets of all the great info getting posted on the Facebook page in an effort to encourage people to check out the page and get connected with more great resources on healthy eating, homesteading, and environmental sustainability. Here are some of this week’s highlights:
- A great article about a young couple in the pacific northwest who got married and decided to start a farm in the woods… favorite quote, “I Blame the Chickens”.
- A great visual on the damage being done to our planet by plastic shopping bags
- A collection of awesome bread-free sandwich ideas
- A free e-book on paleo freezer meals
- An article entitled, “31 of my favorite uses for coconut oil”
- A great article by my personal hero Shannon Hayes on enjoying the moment even if that moment is making tomato sauce at midnight here is my favorite quote: “And in the midst of pureeing all those tomatoes, craving the rest that comes with winter, I had one of those “ah ha” moments. The sun had set, Saoirse was lying on the couch doing her math, Ula was hanging upside down from one of the living room chairs, the door to the screen porch was open, and the sound of the crickets was coming into the kitchen. And my “ah ha” was that this is my life. This is what I wanted. There is no sense wishing the task were completed, because these are the delicious moments I will recall long into my future.”
