Sprouting Seeds...

oo sorry didn't realize this one would be on its side...
this book, God's Way to ultimate health.... i bought when my mum was so sick...and now that i actually read it (i gleened a few bold printed things for my mum and then set off to do other things...) i dearly wish i had gone whole hog with her and followed it...
i have been debating the last couple days if i could actually do this diet...without immediate motivation (ie..diagnosis of cancer for ex) just to do it as a preventative thing....as a way to live as healthily as possible NOW...to even thwart a possible scary diagnosis one day..
i hear all the time about big decisions, people say "it is a small price to pay for....."
and i kept thinking that today...
"it is a small price to pay to eat extravagantly healthily now so i can hopefully be fit for a LONG time"
but when i really really think about it...it is BIG price to pay...
to eat almost all raw food (85%) to give up all dairy, meat, sugar, salt....eggs!
for those of you who know me well or even a little! you know i LOVE food...i love to talk about it, share recipes and most of all EAT it!
but then i think of being with my kids for years and years...
i think of seeing my grandchildren...something my mum never got to do...
i think of growing old with josh...
and i think...what wouldn't i do?

anyway...so i am still contemplating...
and along that path, i am experimenting with different foods....
sprouting grains and beans and nuts today...
well, i started yesterday and the amaranth is sprouted and tastes yummy!
you can't really see it in the photo but you can tell it now fills up the whole jar
more on the "how" in a bit, jack and i are going to read a bit!
