Hi Jill. This week I post our egg-cellence challenge as our third in the series. We are giving away 4 dz eggs to the winner.
I also wrote about my feelings about drinking raw milk after my farmer was found to have campy in the milk.
And I posted two recipes: Ceviche and Coconut Seafood Medley.
Enjoy!
Thanks again for hosting.
I’ve linked up Cheesy Kefir Drop Biscuits and Crock Pot Mexican Soup. They pair well together!

Thanks for hosting Fat Tuesday. My post this week shows what a fat cap is. Today, because of the demonization of saturated fat, many people have never even seen a fat cap. Grassfed fat is great, nutrient-dense, with CLA and the proper ratio of omega-3 to omega-6.
What Is a Fat Cap? This Is a Fat Cap!
Today I’m sharing my LAST WEEK on the GAPS Challenge post, and I can’t believe it’s almost over!
I’m also sharing my coveted Italian dressing recipe, which always is a crowd-pleaser and gets people begging for the recipe. It’s pretty awesome! I made it part of my latest REAL FOOD 101 where I also talk about making a basic vinaigrette. Two for one!

Thanks for hosting, Jill. Today I linked up a post titled “Getting Started with Home Canning” – http://www.commonsensehome.com/getting-started-with-home-canning/
Home food preservation is a great way to stretch your food dollar and preserve local food for use year round.
I know a lot of people are intimidated by canning. but it’s really not that hard. I hope folks will stop by, take a look and give it a try.
Hey Jill

Aww man, I’m sorry. This was my first time linking up here so I must’ve messed it up. My link is the one titled “Samantha” and what it should say is “GF-SF-Grain Free, Apple Cinna-Mini Muffins.”
