Welcome To My Blog


I'm a country girl at heart but have, from time to time, transplanted myself into various cities around the world. I enjoy both for different reasons but it's obvious that you can't take the 'country' out of the girl :) I hope you enjoy your visit here. If you'd like to leave comments, please feel free.

Grow Your Own Sprouts

As some of my readers will know I am into eating as healthy as possible to give myself as much energy as I can and to feel as good as possible at any time and at any age. I love to eat as much of my food as possible in its RAW state or as close to it as I can get it. Since I was a child growing up on 5 acres I and my family have eaten well, often making our own bread, growing our own vegetables, making compost and recycling as much as possible in all areas. It probably came from the era that my parents grew up in (post war) not so much as an effort to reduce our carbon footprint on the planet. We often went through bouts of growing sprouts and making our own muesli etc etc. I've heard various people say they don't have much luck with growing sprouts so here is the fullest, most detailed article and step by step instructions to growing them successfully. Karen Knowler is a leader in UK in the raw network and is a person I have learnt heaps from over the years.

Here is the address for the info.
