You Might Be Crunchy If…

…if when you are out of deoderant, you head to the kitchen pantry:-)

…if you get excited when your farmer has chicken feet!
I didn’t realize just how crunchy I am, but I am definitely one crunchy mama! lol

…if you have ever filled your ice cube trays with pureed liver

…if your kids think water kefir is soda

…if the first thing you do when someone says “I don’t feel well” is make some more stock

…if you call your best friend and brag about how much gel you got from your latest batch of stock

…if you replaced your dentist with fermented cold liver oil, high vitamin butter oil, raw milk, and fluoride-free toothpaste

…if you make your own “toothpaste”

…if you take chicken liver pate to a party

Oh god…I am so crunchy!!

I just bought quinoa seeds to add to my garden…and yes these will require me to make a homemade hulling machine. Luckily the boyfriend volunteered (what!?) to make some sort of contraption for it!

PS. France do you have raw milk? or know where to purchase it? It is illegal in Canada, no? Although I thought Saltspring had some… I know you can get raw cheese but I want raw milk…..throw me an e-mail if you find a source!

You might be crunchy if… You drink homemade pineneedle tea everyday.

You might be crunchy if… you beg your friends to pick all the dandelion greens and pansies out of their yards, and give them to you.

You might be crunchy if… you point at evey single food item and name what it’ll do to your health.

You might be crunchy if… you get really angry because you think you forgot to buy a bottle of raw, un-flavored kombucha to start your own brew, and then realized you did.

Yeah. I’m definitely crunchy…

You might be crunchy if…

-you turn everything over and read the label before even considering the purchase.

-you preach the poisons of GMO so often people at work start calling you the “health nut”

-your refrigerator is full of dozens of fermented foods, all in canning jars of course

-you plan your meals at least a week in advance so you have time to soak, sprout, grind, ferment etc.

-you would rather spend an hour making homemade potato chips deep fried in lard, than have a manicure

-you buy your clothes at a thrift store so you have more money to spend on your bulk herb order

-Your yearly bulk herb order weighs more than 50 pounds!

-you buy coconut oil by the 5 pound barrel

-your children all sleep with a 50 lb bag of wheat under their beds, because you have run out of storage room

-your 4 year old turns up her nose when offered a sucker, because it was too sweet

-When someone says that raw milk is dangerous you actually come close to getting in a physical altercation.

-you asked the waiter last night if the salmon was wild-caught.

-if stranded on a deserted island, you could survive by eating your deoderant, hair conditioner, or homemade cleaning products.

-you only guy 5-10 items at a big chain grocery store. And none of them are edible (garbage bags, light bulbs etc).

-you would rather have a grain grinder than an iPhone.

-A free beef heart actually makes you excited. Free and Beef Heart, what could be better than that?!

——I’m crunchier than I thought. I am guilty of every one of the 20 in your list, and every one suggested in the comments….oh dear.
