Notes I took on my cellphone whereas studying:

– Make train sporadic and enjoyable; actually problem your self

– Discover a higher water supply. Now we have reverse osmosis right here on the home, but it surely hasn’t been serviced because the first time we lived right here. So we haven’t been utilizing it. I’ve been filling the big water jugs from Complete Meals. Although I’m looking for a greater possibility (glass bottles, an awesome filter like Berkey, or perhaps a supply service). If in case you have any concepts, please let me know!

As a non-vegan who loves vegan meals, I’m enthusiastic about attempting among the new recipes in Superlife. They’re all vibrantly coloured and filled with veggies.
