easy wood projects
I’ve been getting more exercise, nothing drastic like hitting a gym, just subtle stuff such as multiple long walks each day , I’m guessing I manage about five miles per day maybe a tad more, I’m doing this for my personal health, I’m starting to feel better and am starting to have more energy and starting to be able to breathe deeper, still haven’t managed to lose much weight, of course I’m not really trying to lose weight … yet, but I have shed 2 pounds , I am 223 pounds now (I’m tall so I carry the weight well), when I do decide to get serious about losing weight I won’t be dieting, just exercise and eating well , nothing more, our village has a small fitness center, so when I decide too join , I will, I am deciding what kind of exercise I want and where to put that weight, do I just lose the pounds? or do I hit the weights and turn it into muscle? I’ll sort that out when I decide too.
Last night before I went to bed I went through the pantry,cupboards,fridge and freezer and took out all the processed foods, instead of throwing them out, I boxed everything and took it to the food bank this morning in the city before I went to pick up my wife.
Now I didn’t go insane and get rid of everything, my wife and son love their ice cream, and I require sugar in my coffee, and of course Milk, have to keep the Milk , I will rephrase it by saying about 95% of all the processed foods went to the food bank this morning.
Now I am not going to turn into a Health Nut or a Organic Foods only Nazi, I will keep some processed stuff around as treats and such, Organic produce is just Bullshit by the way, half the organic produce you buy in food stores are in fact just regular produce with an organics label on it, Notice how “Organics” costs more than regular produce? …it should be cheaper, think about it, here’s the cold hard fact: organics… grown from seed pesticide and chemical free (supposedly) picked and shipped fresh …. should be cheaper because no chemicals were used hence less expense to grow… so why then are you paying more? and don’t think for an instant your organics is not Genetically Modified ! it is, if it wasn’t they’d be dumping a shit ton of chemicals on them to keep them insect and disease free. You have been duped by the advertisers who played on your fears, so you gladly pay more for an organic apple that is in no way different than a commercial apple, wash the commercial apple for 30 seconds and you have the same damn apple as the organics, both Genetically Modified , both chemical free.
So anyway, I don’t buy organics , it’s just a big money grab that isn’t necessary, I just buy regular produce and wash it before use. BTW unless your seeds say Heirloom everything you grew in your garden is genetically modified as well. Carrots for example are NOT orange….. they made them orange to make them more appealing, people like color in their foods, no carrots are naturally white.
Speaking of produce, our front gardens are producing quite nicely , I have been picking 4 varieties of tomatoes almost daily, yellow bells, beef steak, heirloom, and cherry , I harvest around 2 pounds each daily and there is still plenty on the vines , our beets are really huge this year , oh and for the record , you can eat the beet tops as well (the leafy green stuff) they have a pleasant taste, I planted purple carrots this year and they are almost ready for harvest, and our corn is also about ready, as I said in a previous post , our main garden was flooded out and destroyed due to excess rain this year, so our harvest is going to be small , around 200 pounds of produce, down from our usual 6 to 800 pound harvest so I will have to make up the short fall at the grocery stores ( we can,preserve and freeze most everything) .
I will continue to buy beef pork and poultry from the Hutterites (Like the Amish, only modern,they use machines and have electricity phones etc and live in colonies), we have a colony just 7 miles south of us, sometimes I buy produce from them, I mean where else can you get a 50 pound sack of potatoes for 8 bucks?? I usually but 100 pounds at a time when my gardens fail.
I will continue to hunt deer, elk moose rabbit duck and goose to supplement our meat (cuts the grocery meat bill by 98%) and I will continue to fish, which means I only have to buy shrimps and salmon and oysters , I can catch the fresh water fishes on my own. (there are no salmons in Saskatchewan, that’s a coastal fish)
But I cut out the processed and manufactured foods, did you know cheese whiz is just one molecule away from being plastic? nasty huh?
here’s why I’ve always eaten Butter :
butterI already know how to make most condiments such as mayonnaise ,ketchup, BBQ sauce, I use powdered Mustard (just add water) relish etc, all easy peasy to make, home made eggnog , ice cream, peanut butter etc. I can even churn my own butter but choose to buy it because it’s quicker lol
I’m just cutting down on the chemically made foods, hydrogenated stuff , just look at that word a moment HYDROGEN…ated , extra sugars and words none of us can pronounce are all off my new food list.
I’m doing this because A: it’s healthy, B: something gave my wife Cancer and if it’s not environmental then it has to be chemical , and where would she ingest chemicals?… in processed foods, Now I am NOT saying that she definitely for 100% certainty got cancer from processed foods, but then again , I’m not saying she didn’t either… who knows? and cutting out processed foods and making healthier food choices can only be beneficial to everyone who eats it, and no it doesn’t mean more expensive, just means wash your food before you prepare it .
So That’s it for tonight, hopefully this post gave you something to ponder.
Remember folks, express your love often, never take tomorrow for granted and be kind to others.
