Making kombucha for the first time was like a revelation. I felt like a master of the universe, but in this case it was just a gallon-sized jar of fermented tea. There were some things about the process that were a little bit gross — like handling the SCOBY for the first time, or filtering…
3 Reasons I Love Teaching Kids About Real Food
Teaching is fun — particularly when I’m teaching a subject I’m passionate about. I love creating a lesson, digging up resources to share with students, and thinking up questions to help foster discussion. I even love the often tedious work of making videos and editing audio files. But the real reason I love teaching kids…
Fight Back Friday January 7th
I hope you all had a wonderful holiday! I’ve been in the middle of a move for the past week and have not had the internet except in borrowed fits and and spurts. You all have been very patient with my lack of posting and replies to emails! Welcome back yet again to another Fight…
WINNER: Sausage Sampler PLUS COUPON
Thank you to everyone who entered last week’s giveaway for a sampler of all grass-fed beef sausages from U.S. Wellness Meats. More than 400 of you entered, plus there were an additional 200+ extra entries! So, if you didn’t win, don’t feel too bad. This was a HUGE contest. Apparently you folks are as addicted to sausage as I am.
GIVEAWAY: The BEST Eco-Friendly Mop EVER! $107 value
Admit it. You need to mop daily, but are too lazy to do it. Okay, so maybe I’m not describing YOU, but I’m definitely describing ME. With kids and pet traffic, kitchen spills, and a fetish about clean floors, I really do feel like I need to mop daily. But I also can’t stand dragging out my mop bucket and filling it with hot water, can’t stand mopping with an inefficient mop that feels like it’s just pushing dirt around, can’t stand going over sticky spots repeatedly until they’re clean, yet also can’t stand using some poisonous toxic cleaner like PineSol to make such spots come up easily.
GIVEAWAY Winner & 15% Off Coupon
First, let me say THANK YOU to all the people who participated in this giveaway! And next, I want to thank Holly Hickman, the wonderful lady whose research gave life to the Healthy Eats Here! restaurant guide. Without her generosity, this Valentine’s Day giveaway wouldn’t have happened.
Now, the moment you’ve all been waiting for: the WINNER!

How to Make Sauerkraut & Other Fermented Vegetables
Ever wondered how to make sauerkraut? It sounds so intimidating, doesn’t it? So scary. So hard. At least until you’ve made it once. Then you realize how ridiculously easy it is and wonder why you never did it before! It doesn’t take that much time, particularly if you let a food processor do your chopping….
