Evidence of a Changing Kitchen

I’m making little changes. Just step into my kitchen, and you’ll see!

An empty, glass bottle of organic juice is soaking in hot, soapy water. I plan to remove the label and use it as a water bottle.

A glass pitcher of water sits on the counter. We pour our water in here from the Brita pitcher immediately after filtering, to prevent the plastic from leeching into the water.

2 bunches of organic bananas! I wanted to make sure we had more than enough. I’ll probably use some of them to make banana bread.

Let’s peek in my fridge! There’s some homemade chicken broth chilling – couldn’t let those free range chicken bones go to waste!

A gallon of organic milk and a glass jug of organic, unfiltered apple juice sit beside the broth, as well as an almond butter jar that is being re-used to store leftover soup.

On the bottom shelf, you can see the organic butter that I bought yesterday.

On the table sit two ripe, organic tangelos, waiting to be eaten. Beside them, paper bags full of organic oranges and apples sit ripening.

I have a long way to go, but it’s heartening to see the changes happening. When I notice these little differences, it warms my heart to realize that I am taking steps toward taking better care of my family and myself.
