A Balanced Diet

I’m enjoying an unusual bowl of cereal! Uncle Sam’s cereal (the original, you know the one with the whole flax seeds and the “ironed out” steamed wheat berries?) garnished with a small portion of Lucky Charms. You’d be surprised how good that is! (and my husband is so delighted I’m finally working on that box of Uncle Sam’s that no one else in my family will touch.)

I like to call this a balanced diet…I don’t eat all fake foods, but I enjoy some. I don’t eat all organic foods, but I enjoy some. The example with arguably the most irony of my balanced diet cuisine? I bag a lunch, right? Well, I was in one of my organic, highly nutritive kicks, and I was even home-sprouting organic sprouts in my kitchen.

I made my (delicious!) sandwich with whole wheat bread, organic leafy sprouts, commercially prepared yellow mustard, and that mystery meat we like to call bologna! My coworkers got rather the raised eyebrow/chuckle out of it. My lunch bag was rounded off by a baggie of raw carrots and a candy bar.

Balance. I’m all about it! (ha ha)

(peace, all!)
