So I watched an interesting documentary last night Food Beware: A French Organic Revolution and I realized the importance of making things from scratch. These days, everything seems to come in a container already packaged for us, with who knows what ingredients and chemicals added for the sake of preservation. And though my family has been into organic foods for a couple years now, there are several things we were accustomed to buying already made. Some products are probably impossible for us to make ourselves, such as keeping chicken or fish--meats in general. But others, such as breads, jams, and vegetables, are certainly something that can be taken care of at home or locally.
