Hello, Sunshine.

This week eating local has felt…. non-existent?

Not sure why. Partly it has become habit. Since I have shifted to buying all of my produce at the market, it doesn’t feel so different anymore. It’s also partly because I’ve been busy and eaten at a friend’s house & restaurants several nights this week, so I haven’t felt as connected to my own food. (Also I undershot it a bit at the market and am running low on salad stuff and food in general…so meals have been very boring.)

It’s still great though! I’ve been eating lots of squash, zucchini, salads, fresh veggie juice, carrots, broccoli, apples, pears, and smoothies. I didn’t prepare anything fancy or unique thus far this week.

I can feel a difference in my body from eating more of the “condiment” stuff, like chocolate and cookies, compared to last week when most of the things I consumed were fresh. Always a good connection to observe Stress just seems to put a damper in all of the plans, but I think I’ve maintained my goals and stuck to one 95% local meal per day. Yes, still usually a smoothie.
