It’s almost strawberry season and I really could not be happier about that.
We just got in our first round of local strawberries and they are INCREDIBLE. I buy them by the gallon and eat them the same way.

I love this idea! Earthfare is showing great initiative to reduce waste. I believe huge retailers should follow suit, such as one of the biggest users of plastic, WAL-MART!
So glad you like it! We’re pretty excited, too. :)

2 years ago • 55 notesOne week down! So far, it hasn’t been too shocking to my system, although I have been tempted a few times. I’ve found that, when I want to eat meat (especially fast food), it helps me to stop and consider where the meat came from, how it was treated, what it was injected with, how quickly it grew to full size (I’m especially creeped out by the growth hormones), and how I’ll feel after I eat it. Usually the cravings go away pretty fast ;)
The toughest test actually came yesterday. Part of my job at Earth Fare is cooking up DELICIOUS food every weekend - this weekend was Piedmontese Filet Mignon. From Montana Ranch, the cows are “Authentically Natural” - so no antibiotics, no GROWTH HORMONES, vegetarian feed, family ranched…essentially, all the things I would have used to guilt myself out of caving were moot. I managed to stay strong, though, because I really want to learn something from the Try It Diet.
I am having trouble being creative and cooking good veggie meals for myself. I’m ashamed to tell you guys that I actually ate bread and butter for dinner the other night (when I told my boss, she laughed at me and told me how sad that was. Whatever. It was tasty, too!). So I picked up a copy of The New Moosewood Cookbook…well, actually, I picked up TWO copies. Keep watching the blog for an announcement on how you (yes, you!) could win my 2nd copy.
Did any of you reading sign the Veg Pledge? How’s it going for you?

In case you ever consider going about your day without appreciating all that’s around you…don’t. We live in a beautiful world (yeah we do yeah we do).
