Today it is raining and cold...everyone has been wishing for Spring, Sunshine, and Spring Flowers and I am with everyone and all over that. However I cherish days like today windy, rainy, and cold and I have an excuse to stay inside and drink coconut green lattes and think of something to bake. I review the health blogs and healthy: gluten free, vegetarian, dairy free, and soy free. I do not decide on something gluten free, I decide god believes in balance and moderation and choose to make Focaccia Bread. Even though I like to read health blogs, interested in being healthy it is plagued with confusion and contradictions. Mostly overwhelming. I am not skinny person, sometimes slothful, but still desire to be healthy. With all the contradictions out their I have decided to listen to my body to what makes me feel good, that means eating variety of things and recognizing certain foods make my body and soul feel good. So I know longer eat pasta and bread every day because it does not make me feel good but rather have when my body has need for it. I feel are bodies tell us what they need if we really listen, it is not just from emotion but what nurtures it. Like a green goddess smoothie makes my body feel good in the morning. I do digress from the Focaccia bread which I made with whole wheat flour and some white flour, yeast, tons of garlic, chives , cilantro, salt and pepper, topped with thinly slice tomatoes, salt and pepper, parsley, some aged Parmesan,drizzled with olive oil. So eat in balance soothe your soul and listen to your body. have slice of Focaccia Bread now and again. I wish for you today the smell of rustic bread baking and a warm cup of your favorite tea.
Hugs Lisa
