Day 2 - Eating at Home Challenge


I'm off work again today, so eating at home should be a breeze, right?  Maybe, maybe not.  I have this urge to run out and get a soda, which is a whole other topic revolving around a sugar addiction.

Breakfast was a success, and I stuck to the meal plan!  Amazing, I know.  I ate 2 pastured eggs with cheese and orange juice.  I even took my vitamins.

Did you know that I visited a new farm this weekend?  The farm I used to buy pork, beef, chicken, milk, cheese and eggs from recently closed to the public.  Since then, I've been researching places to buy from locally.  The farm that seemed the most similar is a bit of a hike.


Yet, the drive was pretty easy.  And, if you know me, you know I love a great drive through the country.  While at the farm, I picked up some eggs, real milk, and raw milk grass-fed cheddar cheese.  But, I think I was the most excited to pet the calves!  I really miss my grandparent's farm that I frequented growing up.

I'm hoping this milk lives up to my expectations.  I always get a little bit nervous getting food items from a new farm.  But, I should trust the reviews and information I have researched.  Off to have a glass of milk!
