Muckboots n' Aprons: Easy Leafy Green Eating

Ever Lived Someplace You Didn't Like?

"Thus says the LORD of hosts, the God of Israel, to all the exiles whom I have sent into exile from Jerusalem to Babylon. Build houses and live in them; plant gardens and eat their produce. Take wives and have sons and daughters; take wives for your sons, and give your daughters in marriage, that they may bear sons and daughters; multiply there, and do not seek decrease. But seek the welfare of the city where I have sent you into exile, and pray to the LORD on it's behalf, for in its welfare you will find your welfare."
Jeremiah 29: 4-7

Aren't we exiles on the earth? Maybe we are exiles in our daily life, the physical, mental, or spiritual place we are living presently...

Easy Leafy Green Eating

I have found a wonderful way to get delicious, easy salads in my day. Fall is a busy time, so it's easier to forget about building yummy salads and grabbing something easy for lunches on the go instead that may not be so good for me.

These 5 0z. pre-washed salads from Earthbound Farm are organic,so good, and so easy. My new favorite is the Fresh Herb Salad. I( don't do iceburg lettuce! It's hard to digest and has little or no nutritive value. )

I added homegrown tomatoes and baby squash, pecans, feta cheese, and my favorite homemade dressing, and I had a feast for dinner. The remaining salad in the container will be made similar, minus the dressing, which I will carry seperately, and now I have a lovely salad-on-the-go. I'll just add the dressing right before I'm ready to eat. No tempation for fast food- and the container is so handy.
