I just got back from a walk to the local farmers market. My friend and I love to walk on Saturday mornings and this morning she had a limited time to walk so we went to the farmers market to talk while we shopped. Today they had great looking berries. I picked up some veggies to finish up a three bean soup we are making today and a loaf of fresh baked bread. When I got home I was browsing the web and found an article by CNN correspondent Sean Callebs who has just finished an assignment where he lived on the equivalence of food stamps for a week. The thing he missed most was his diet soda. Amazing after a month without it he lost his taste for the diet drink and felt he may have lost a few pounds and felt pretty good. Cooking meals at home takes some thought and planning. I did have to soak the beans last night and get a few fresh ingredients but the three bean soup should be good for a couple of meals. A child of the 60's I did not eat in a sit down restaurant until I was a senior in high school. The only fast food I had was an occasional White Castle Hamburger. Maybe this generation needs to learn how to cook.
