I too have found myself looking at what goes out of other shoppers' carts and then judging them for what they are eating.<BR/><BR/>Maybe the tables should be turned on me for a moment where they are judging me; to remind me that I AM NOT PERFECT. <BR/><BR/>Thanks for this post and gentle reminder that my decision to eat clean, whole food is my choice and that others have the right to eat what they choose as well.

Just a ten minute walk from here, there are several farms that sell their produce on the side of the road, infront of their properties. It's wonderful.<BR/>As for milk...I switched to organic milk immediately after I saw this documentary on what REALLY goes into our milk...was so gross! Now I've gone off milk completely and use other alternatives.<BR/>I'm one that has made small changes over time...but these changes are like a domino effect, that just keeps inspiring me to do more.<BR/>:)Jaimehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/04803308252202460126noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7131844.post-32291586964327028902008-08-03T19:05:00.000+02:002008-08-03T19:05:00.000+02:00I was listening to the radio and they were intervi...I was listening to the radio and they were interviewing an 'image consultant'. I figured this must be a PR type person employed by celebrity types. Turned out to be someone who helped you choose clothes in the department store in town! As wife, mother and 'chief cook and bottle-washer' I guess I qualify for the title of Domestic Consultant! Oh, and I did your meme!Tillyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/15665464372841227874noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7131844.post-59937570814717446942008-08-03T17:07:00.000+02:002008-08-03T17:07:00.000+02:00:):)...Okay, first...I did that meme...and second,...:):)...Okay, first...I did that meme...and second,as I sit here drinking my organic, Free Trade coffee I am more than glad that you don't have the blogging blahs anymore. I have totally enjoyed this post. I am one of those tree-hugging organic mamas too!<BR/><BR/>My frustration does come from the fact that where we live our choices are very limited. In our little town we have a very small grocery store that doesn't carry organic anything.So...if you drive to the next city (15 mins.)I'm totally taking my chances that they will have what I need. Sometimes they have organic milk...sometimes they don't. They used to carry lots of organic fruits...now they don't. So you brought up a good point at being at the mercy of the store buyers. Why aren't they bringing in organic apples anymore? <BR/>My only other option is to contend with traffic, and an hours drive to the BIG city to go the large organic food mart. I've done it, but it's just not practical.<BR/><BR/>It's this time of year that I am very thankful for my garden. Raspberries...peas...carrots...lettuce...yum. <BR/><BR/>I think now I'll go and ponder what kind of 'expert' I can be...<BR/><BR/>Have a great day!enchantedartisthttps://www.blogger.com/profile/14313891229819372088noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7131844.post-42709059960766212432008-08-03T16:49:00.000+02:002008-08-03T16:49:00.000+02:00I agree one hundred percent.

Both on your ideas about food and consultants.<BR/><BR/>We have some horrible developmental consultants over here who specialise in coming up with "sustainable" projects for poor communities. <BR/><BR/>If I did not have to spend the next couple of days finishing off an essay, I would be ranting on my blog about it right now.helehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/00500335410678018061noreply@blogger.com
