I have a friend who only eats all natural food.  As I watched her make this transition recently my eyes were OpENed!  I wish I could sit here and type about my deep conviction about hydrogenated oils and processed sugars……but that would be a lie.  I have nothing against ingredients that I can’t pronounce.  I have learned something though:  I have been a Victim of marketing!  It honestly never occurred to me that the things I buy in a bottle could be whipped up in a matter of minutes.

Up until recently I thought nothing of paying $2.50 for a loaf of whole wheat bread…..I have been making it for less than $.50/loaf!  I used to spend $1.75 on a bottle of Hershey’s syrup…I can make it BETTER for $.45!!  Pizza crust is nothing more than flour, water and oil….who knew? 

I know that most of you are thinking that I am a hippie or something, but I have been shocked at how easy this stuff is to make.  With the punching of a few keys I can find a Recipe for ANYTHING.  It does take a little time, but not nearly as much as I would have thought.  5 minutes for homemade cream of chicken soup and 20 for homemade hamburger buns!  Seriously…..

Don’t be surprised if I decide to share some of my new-found recipes in the days to come!
