Well how embarrassed am I? I have come on to put up a blog as I feel that I should and realise it has been since Halloween since I last put up a post! That was 3 months ago! I feel terrible. Where did the time go?
I have been enjoying the summer school holidays and spending lots of time with the kids around the home. We are slowly continuing our renovations working on bedroom number 3. We also set a little project of creating a new vegetable patch from scratch using found objects around our very overgrown garden and through Gumtree. We joined the Diggers Club and have been to Heronswood here on the Peninsula a couple of times as well to learn how to grow heirloom vegetables. So why else have I not been posting on my website? Well these include but not limited to my recent addiction to the instant nature of Facebook. It is so easy to just grab an iPad, take a shot and upload to Facebook in a matter of seconds to the 250+ people who see my feeds. If you would like to see our Facebook page please go to Cut the Chemicals Cookbook and see what has been so distracting there. Also I have been busy Pinning lots of ideas on our Pinterest Page, I absolutely love this resource and think it's a great tool for collecting lots of ideas about living the additive free lifestyle. If you know of anything that I should Pin for others let me know. I'd be happy to do so. Also I think I have had a little bit of writers block of late. I've been trying to think of long, highly detailed and informative posts that can teach you many things, but I think that I am really over thinking things. I think what you would want to read are little tidbits here and there that give good advice on eating foods that really do put us in a better place mentally and physically. So that is what I am going to endeavor to do, blog little, but blog often! Rebecca :)

Rebecca Taylor I am super excited to let you all know that I am now a guest blogger for a website called Button Baby. I will be writing regular posts about eating additive and preservative free foods and my first post is now live for you all to read ... so please do!
My first post is all about baby food so if this is an area that you are concerned about please head on over to Button Baby and learn all about why some baby foods are better than others.
If you have my book, you'll note that a lot of recipes for kids snacks avoid using dried fruit. This is because a preservative is used in the drying process to avoid the fruit going mouldy. I confess I do however use coconut often in my biscuits as I do love that flavour. When I run out of my current stocks I will be buying my next source of coconut from a lady who lives around the corner from me who sells dried fruits and coconut that are preservative free - yippee! Lu's website is below, so if like me you would like to have chemical free dried fruit check out her site: Six S Organics - Organic and Preservative Free Foods our food, cleaning, and body care products are organic, chemical free, and fair trade. Do you love this blog? Here at Cut the Chemicals we would love you to refer us to others so that they can also learn what you have learnt. Furthermore you can keep up to date with our blog by adding us to a watch list like Bloglovin'. Follow the link below for further information.
These two comedians made a spoof ad to tell you exactly what ingredients are in chicken nuggets sold at McDonald's Restaurants. It would be hilarious if it wasn't so scary! |
