I came to the same conclusion years ago that what we put in our mouths is not just for our eating pleasure, but to benefit our daily overall health...when Edward was diagnosed w/ Juvenile Diabetes, we paid even more attention, as we were suddenly counting every carb that passed his lips. As for Grandma's Spaghetti, there is no question that it is NOT a healthy food by any stretch, but for my Mother's sake, that's what she wanted. Mom will be 85 in January so given all of her health issues (years and years of smoking have taken a huge toll...she only 'really' stopped about 5 years ago), a couple of meals of her favorite food was the best medicine. I will most definitely have a look/see @ the books you've mentioned and if I start making my own yogurt, we can compare notes!!!<BR/><BR/>Thank you for your comment as I know it comes from a place of love and concern....we must continue this most interesting conversation...love love love...Amy Lilley Designshttps://www.blogger.com/profile/10907512787759970646noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2163278516803757057.post-10432623441465833402008-10-24T20:54:00.000-06:002008-10-24T20:54:00.000-06:00Amy, I love the dish. Gorgeous piece of art!As to ...Amy, I love the dish. Gorgeous piece of art!<BR/><BR/>As to the recipe, well I might have loved it at one time, but our meals have taken a huge change since I read "Nutrition and Physical Degeneration" by Weston A. Price DDS and then, subsequently, the cookbook "Nourishing Traditions" by Sally Fallon. <BR/><BR/>After Mom died from cancer, I questioned the reason why SO many people are sick, and I've come to the conclusion that we need to nourish our bodies with whole foods the way our ancestors did. It's a long journey of changes but it is almost freeing to finally eat butter again! We make broth that simmers for days to get all the minerals out of the marrow, and I soak our daily oatmeal in filtered water and whey overnight before cooking it. I even make my own yogurt, whey and cream cheese (by-product of making whey).<BR/><BR/>Wow - long comment here. Sorry, but I thought you might be interested in the concept of preparing meals without any processed foods.<BR/><BR/>So very glad to read about your mom. Will chat soon!<BR/>ChristyAnonymoushttps://www.blogger.com/profile/06093072752917893214noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2163278516803757057.post-4972219837367682392008-10-24T08:18:00.000-06:002008-10-24T08:18:00.000-06:00Kim, just took a look @ TAD..WOW...thank you...rea...Kim, just took a look @ TAD..WOW...thank you...really different from the others...hmmmmm...you too have a wonderful (hopefully warmer) weekend!!!<BR/><BR/>Ms. Muse, I would come and make it for you myself ANYTIME!!!!<BR/><BR/>shantanudus...yes, lots and lots of cheese...it's fabulous!!!<BR/><BR/>and so it is Nancy, delicious....<BR/><BR/>capybara, you should make it...it's pretty straight forward!!..clean up that keyboard...lol!!!Amy Lilley Designshttps://www.blogger.com/profile/10907512787759970646noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2163278516803757057.post-28516629125395964362008-10-24T07:33:00.000-06:002008-10-24T07:33:00.000-06:00That recipe has got me drooling all over my keyboa...That recipe has got me drooling all over my keyboard.
