What are we eating?

After seeing Mr. Pollad clip in Oprah, I realized that what he says about the food that we eat is absolutely true. I remember when I came to the USA I bought a cake. The cake was good; it was really moist and lasted days. Then I read the ingredients. There were more that fifteen or twenty of what they called ingredients. At the end of the list I found out what I was looking for: butter, eggs, sugar and flour. This was my first and last cake!!!!! Although I would love to simplify my life buying ready to eat food, I simply can't. I love whole food. Unbleached flour, brown sugar, organic eggs, butter and milk make the best cake ever. My Dr. who is an homeopathic doctor always tells me to stay away of highly enriched and processed food, and I try to follow his advise.
To be honest I like oreo cookies, pizza and doughnuts, but I bought the Oreos at Whole Food market, I make my own pizza and with the doughnuts, well.... nobody is perfect.

Spring Break???

I wish I had a spring break. Since my two sons and I different spring break dates, we could not have a real vacation. My husband has been working in the studio finishing a project that he has to deliver very soon. My older son had classes and his break started last Friday, but he has to compose for his senior recital so his also buried in his studio. I organized my house a little bit, and studied chemistry for next week mid term. I really don't like chemistry, but I have no other choice but take it. On the other hand, the weather has been fantastic and I have enjoyed long walks with my dog Max. Hopefully during summer we will be able to enjoy a well deserved vacation somewhere outside Florida.
