First of all, we are on the program! www.EatLocalOneYear.com
I woke up yesterday, January 1, 2009, and felt like I would love a cup of coffee. No such luck; coffee is not one of our 3 exceptions!
We have only decided on 2 of our exceptions for January; brown rice and pinto beans.
On the morning of the 1st, Joanne said, would you like some rice cereal? For us, this usually means freshly cooked brown rice with rice milk and cinnamon and fruit. But, not in 2009. The rice milk has multiple ingredients that are not local, nor are on our exception list. Cinnamon is not one of our exceptions. So, for the first time, we have fresh brown rice, butter (local - Rockview Farms in Downey), salt, and sliced oranges. Wow, was it great!!!!!!! Try it!
Today we made fresh carrot, celery, apple juice and had some beans, rice and avocado.
No question, we need to stay ahead with our food planning and prep.
364 days to go, and loving it!
