Hi. I am the Rebellious Pastor’s Wife, and I have a regular blog that deals with my ramblings about life, politics, theology, kids, homeschooling, etc. All the other stuff that matters to me. But this is my blog about food, health, gardening, Nourishing Traditions type stuff. It seemed like, at least this point in time, that I needed a special place for that.
Currently, I am 39 years old with two kids. I am about 90 lbs. overweight with Metabolic Syndrome/PCOS , Celiac Disease, and thyroid issues. I am developing a devoted interest in traditional foods such as grassfed meat and raw milk; fermented healthy things like kombucha and kefir; coconut oil; and a more wise approach to foods than have been part of the 20th and 21st century. I don’t buy into the current trends or panics over fats, carbs, synthetic foods, etc. I am wanting to lean on foods that have been used by humankind for millenia to keep balance. While we live in a fallen world, I tend to think God knows more about what we should eat than chemists do.
After realizing that it was Celiac that has been giving me the digestive problems, since I also am dealing with insulin resistance, I’ve decided on a Paleo approach to eating, so you’ll see a lot of that here, too
