Decided to have wheat sprouts for breakfast. Wondered how they'd be pureed. So I did and poured it in a bowl. It was like milk. So I added more sprouts and some blueberries and waa laa - breakfast. Now I know if I want a bit of milky liquid - liquify sprouts. Interesting learning.
We had the opportunity to eat out and I just didn't even want to. Driving by one of our old favorite places to eat, I thought about what I felt like every time I ate there. I'm proud of us for resisting. I soooooo want the health that is available to me if I will eat the whole foods.
Interesting that when one eats whole foods, we can sustain ourselves at four to five times increase in more power, energy, vitality and life on about one-third the quantity of our current food. We are eating less already.
I feel like I've been at the left swing of a pendulum and have progressed and come to what I thought was the middle. It wasn't quite right there so I'm now at the right swing of this large pendulum. I think I have to be here to learn.
"All grain is ordained for the use of man,...to be the staff of life....
All grain is good for the food of man;...--
Nevertheless, wheat for man...."
Doctrine and Covenants 89: 14, 16-17 (Known as the Word of Wisdom)
Our Blog Names
While playing around, we happened upon names that mean wheat. We kind of liked them so we adopted them as our blog names. We'll be signing our blogs with our "wheat" names.
Gwenith - Welch (female) is Honeybee
Basak - Turkish (female) is Grandma
Zea - Latin (female) is Walkers

OUR QUEST
Basak: My quest is to understand and know why the Lord said, "Nevertheless, wheat for man". I want to know how to prepare and use it in the Lord's ways and thus, it will taste good and our families will want to eat it. I want to know why the word "nevertheless" was used, how much we need and why. My quest is to know it all.
Gwenith: Several months ago, the thought came to me. How will we eat in the Millennium? That sounds funny, I know, but what I mean when I say that is, 'What is a higher law of health and nutrition and how can I eat that way using my food storage?' This is what I am working on.
Zea: My quest... to learn and live the word of wisdom so that me and my family will be blessed to live a healthy life. In this process I've ended up having several "sub" quests, such as learning more about grains, herbs, what things in our diet and life are created by "evil and conspiring men", and needless to say one subject leads to another. Right now I'm trying to put the knowledge I've gathered so far (while still gathering more) into practice for me and my family... not an easy task when you have a picky eater!
And as we pursue our quests, we desire to help others.

A LITTLE ABOUT US
I'm Basak (Grandma). I'm married to a wonderful husband who spoils me and puts up with all my kitchen lab work and in my working to serve others. We have four wonderful children and they have blessed us with sixteen grandchildren. I always seem to be learning something new and I love it.
I met Gwenith a few years ago and she's become a very dear friend. We found we were kindred sisters in the preparedness world. We now live miles apart and yet, the kindred has never dwindled. When we talk, we find we always seem to be going down the same road in the thought process - a miracle in itself.
I'm Gwenith (Honeybee). I have a wonderful husband and two boys who are my jewels. I have known since serving a proselyting/welfare mission years ago that the Lord wanted me to be involved in the 'Provident Living' side of things.
The last several years have been an amazing learning adventure and I thank the Lord for allowing me to be an instrument in His hands in any way. Thank goodness I have a friend to share this adventure with -- Basak. Though Basak seems my peer, not my elder, I lean heavily on her wisdom, experience and most of all her strong spirituality. She is an example to me. My efforts to becoming closer to the Lord have benefited from watching her. Thank you, friend!
