Welcome!

...to a new blog with a new idea.

"We feed ourselves, not to please our senses, but to show our Lord that we want to work for Him and with Him."

~Mother Teresa

I don't need to explain the importance of healthy eating. It's something we all acknowledge with the nod of our head whether or not we acknowledge it with the fork in our mouth. Eating is a problem on so many ends of the spectrum that it is impossible to address all the ways that people disrespect thier bodies and so much more when it comes to food. This is not going to be a blog about "body image" or dieting or calories or even restriction. This will be my journey of unearthing what it means to literally eat to the glory of God. You don't have to be a Christian to benefit from what I will be discovering but I hope that as I continue to learn what it means to surrender every part of my life to "true spirituality" that Christians, in particular, will have extra incentive to learn along with me.

Every Tuesday I will be adding some sort of healthy eating tip, recipe, or idea to the site. I will try to keep practicality as well as financial and timing constraints in mind as I post. I myself have a fairly small food budget and don't have time to cook all day. With those constraints it is especially easy to sell out to food that does little for your body besides stop the noise in your belly.

This will be good to hold me accountable as I learn what it means to help in providing what my family (as small as it may be at the moment) needs. It will also keep me writing on a deadline, something which I would like to practice. I hope it will be beneficial to you as we discover what "a healthy dose of..." really is.
