I really, really believe that is a healthy way to cook.

Sorry. I missed the point. I hope you all share with me some of the new information.
I laugh when I am at the check out and they will ask...what is this? And it will be parsnips or kohlrabi or turnips or something else we have always eaten. I think cooking healthily is quickly going away and most people are living on fast food and packaged snacks. One thing I know I do now that I didn't used to do is eat less meat, fish, protein and more fruits and vegetables. The reason that I said that about organically grown is that it is hard to tell if they have had pesticides on them and the preservatives that are on some fresh produce smell like the stuff we used to smell in disection lab.
I wish we could grow more stuff here.
I know that I am going to try to have a lemon and an orange tree for sure. I hate paying IN FLORIDA so much for those fruits. Two dollars for three lemons? That is a crime!
