Day 4

Breakfast - Eggs and asparagus
Lunch - Sauteed Veggies
Supper - Spinach and Romaine Salad

Great day today in the locavore world.  My friend Ashley, who takes her daughter to Sing and Sprout at Mercy Church on Tuesday mornings, and, along with her husband Aaron, is an expert on all things local and edible, delivered to me today chives, rhubarb, oatmeal, and honey!  It takes good community to be a locavore and I have great community.

I am also about to receive some great things including a sourdough bread starter from my friend Tara.  God has truly blessed me with some great people who care about eating in a sustainable way.

This morning I spent time in a pastor peer group where I found out about a cookbook called "Simply in Season" a cookbook put out by a Mennonite publisher about cooking and eating seasonally.  I am thankful to be part of a denomination that cares about such things.  I plan on heading down to 10,000 villages tomorrow and picking up a copy.  From what I heard today it is part cookbook and part devotional.  I am quite excited for the devotional piece because I truly felt led by God to attempt this journey.

As I read through the cookbook and attempt to cook, which could be interesting, I will share the recipes I attempt.

I had someone inquire about the possibility of starting a book club reading through books like Animal, Vegetable, Miracle by Barbara Kingsolver and In Defense of Food by Michael Pollan  etc.  

Any interest in that?
