preparing for the summer with peru in my heart

Even more so because it is snowing here in Santa Fe on May 13th, I am excited for this upcoming summer because it will be the first summer that Your Freshest Food delivers fresh produce from beginning to end. It's great to think that within a matter of a few weeks I'll be eating tree ripe peaches, and vine ripe tomatoes. Thank you Texas.

On our return from Peru my sister and I were discussing what we had learned from the, "River People," of the Amazon. We were joking that so many people continually look for the 1 key to healthy life, the same healthy life that the River People take for granted. We had observed the differences from the lifestyle there and here in the US and saw that it isn't about 1 key, but an entire key chain full of keys.

Protein and health bars were the things we were mostly laughing about, "since when is a healthy life preserved inside of a package, that is stored inside of a box, and sold in a store, where the actual food contents could be thousands of miles away from where they originated?"  and then continue, "does sleep come in a package as well?" It went on for over an hour while enjoying the scenery in the Andean Plateau that is on the border between the Andes Mountains and the rainforest.

At an increasing rate, this discussion we had is becoming less of a joke and more of an, "oh my word, we are living as mutant humans," type of feeling. There are many people that really believe that their healthy life is in a box, or in that a larger check that will equal to be a better life (and less sleep). At Your Freshest Food we don't only believe in fresh food, we believe in a good life that doesn't end after several chemo treatments, or an asthma attack (what ultimately took my Grandma), or decades of having low energy. We believe in a healthy life style all around, and Your Freshest Food is only restoring fresh food to people; only one of several habits that need mending before health is restored.

I have began a rewarding challenge for myself which is, before I eat each meal or snack,  I ask myself if that food would be available in the Amazon Rainforest, where chronic disease is almost non-existent. Almost nothing in a typical American diet would be available there. What an awakening.
