I think it is something about the weather getting nicer that draws me to eating better. Lately I have been trying very hard to only eat real food. By "real" I mean an actual carrot, broccoli, banana... you get the idea. I want to eat something natural. Today I put a banana in the blender with milk and a little honey and that was breakfast! All natural. Nothing out of a box or can. I have carrot sticks for snacks, rice (not the minute kind)... I just want to eat things that aren't processed. So today I had a nice articoke as a snack. I love love love artichokes! If you've never cooked one here is a good website with info: Click here
I cook mine and dip them in melted butter and lemon juice. I don't really like the way the ones soaked in oil taste that are in jars.
So that is what is new with me. I am just trying to eat better.
I also have the honey bear print up at etsy now.

Good on you X:-)
Love the hunny bear X:-)
I so agree with you. I was offered some over processed pocky sticks this morning and I think I gagged. So believe in listening to what your body needs to eat rather than 'wants' to eat. The artichoke sounds divine.
Wow, I had no idea how to eat artichoke - I would like to give a try one day. Thank you for sharing!
Woah! I saw the picture of the artichoke and thought YUMMM! I love them just like that with the butter, lemon, and salt. I also had a recipe with them steamed like that and then cold with a lemon cream dipping sauce--fantastic! Have a great day!
Hi Tascha,
aren´t artichokes great?
And they do not even tast good, they look like a piece of art aswell.
Enjoy your natural foof.

Very tasty if you mix strawberries, banana and milk also:)
Yum...I also adore artichokes cooked and dipped in melted butter whilst still piping hot!
Artichokes are also beautiful as a centre piece filled with a t-light.very pretty!
I think that's a great idea to eat all natural foods...
Have a wonderful day...atleast it's not raining like yesterday!

Bonjour Tascha! Yes! It must be something special is in the air! I too have been on a healthier than healthy way of eating! I try to replace lunch of supper with a salad, and that is 7 days a week. And I do feel much better for it! I too love artichokes! And you know what? I grew them in the garden last year and on 3 plants I harvested 16 buds! Your painting is so sweet! Have a great week!

Good girl. Me too.. whole foods taste so much better.
did you see this? Etsy's coming your way: http://www.etsy.com/storque/etsy-news/o-canada-meet-with-etsy-admin-3791/
catch you later!
That is great that you are eating healthier. We all need to do that. I love your latest painting. Have a great day.
this is wonderful! I love artichokes as well :) Same with the butter and lemon mmmm... I have started to do the whole smoothie for breakfast too, some flax and yogurt in it is great!
Love the little print!
Cheers!
Real food is real nutrition. And ... I LOVE artichokes! :D
I love this, it is soooo cute
Tascha!
The funny thing is you're eating healthier with the artichoke but ruin it by adding all the saturated fat from the butter!
But.......
I would've added the butter too so I'm one to talk!
Oh, and the bear print....adorable as always.
