Our family also is a firm believer in whole, real foods & practices of the Nourishing Traditions book. Before we added our third child in January 2008, I was full swing with NT practices. Being very sick that pregnancy & not wanting to cook got me off track a bit. We are a far cry from where we were, but personality wise...I had also gotten pretty obsessive and strict with my eating. I remember being paralyzed staring at the menu one night when I was out to eat with girlfriends...def no grass fed meat on the menu, but nothing organic either! It took me 45 minutes to figure out what to eat that night ;) Anyway...all that to say, now that I am back to cooking I have found a happy medium for our family. We strive for as much organic and local food as possible. We keep processed food out of the house. I grind my own organic grain with my WonderMill & 100% whole wheat & organic bread, muffins, pancakes etc. No white flour and sugar here. We try to eat mostly fruit, veggies, protein and healthy organic whole grains (brown rice, quinoa, etc). We definitely believe in the NT principles and healthy fats, but aren't into the organ meats or fermented foods. I do believe they are so good for you, but it's just not an area we can get into. All that to say...I just followed you on twitter, hope to join in on Real Food Wednesdays as time permits, and wanted to thank you for all your hard work getting out the correct nutritional info!! I'm sure your blog is a big part of why I can tell over the last few years NT principles are starting to become more mainstream. Thanks again!! Kelly,

About your yogurt, it depends on if it smells "bad" or not. If it doesn't smell right and you're not sure, don't use it. But a soured or fermented smell is good. :) And yes, I do consultations, info is above. Thanks for asking and I hope to hear more comments from you in the future now that you've gotten your feet wet! Kelly Jen,

I have a blog address but never really quite figured out how to get it out there, and as time went on and my schedule got busier I stopped it all together. I think its great what you do, I have always wanted to get the word out more about real food to neighbors, schools, moms group etc. Do you give free consultations with people., what a great way to make money if your able. Anyway I just thought I would say Hi, I dont normally respond back to blogs, this is actually my first time. You struck a cord, especially when you mentioned you are a Christian, I cant wait to read about your journey with Christ. I am a new believer, grew up in a Catholic school but as I got older became very interested in other religions. God has led me back to Him.. Maybe its a process , good food, brings you closer to The Truth...well just a thought anyway. ") Thanks for the tips, quick question...my raw yogurt smells like yeast...its a little old can I still use it straight or are there any other uses for it once its reached this age..? Jen Albrittion is great isnt she...she has helped me so much with the formula making process!!! Hi Kelly.,
