Hi Sarah,
Love your blog! We just had it on our blogroll last month. Our post is a review of a new book that advocates that women stop being afraid of saturated fats and that they are in fact essential for our well-being.
Here’s to a great 2012!

Sarah, hope you have a very Happy New Year! For Christmas dinner, we had a traditional goose. The goose was rich and satisfying, with crisp skin. My post is about how I used the whole goose. This included using nutrient-dense innards in my stuffing and saving the glorious goose fat.

Hi and thanks for hosting!
This week our 11 year old son made us so proud. He went on the radio and explained how he stays safe from gluten cross-contamination, which makes him very sick! Over the past year he has healed so much, it’s amazing.

Thanks for hosting. I tried out a new recipe and added in brown rice instead of white, along with maple syrup instead of sugar in the sushi rice. Even though it was my first time rolling sushi, it still looked pretty decent, and the kids scarfed it down for a healthy New Year’s Eve appetizer.

Hey, thanks for the post.Really looking forward to read more. Great.
Hi Sarah, just finished watching a video showing how to render pork.
The other lady mentioned where she had gotten her pastured fed fat, but i was not able to hear the name. Would it be possible for you to tell me where she gets her fat. I am having a hard time finding any. I want to make sure it is from pastured pigs.
Thanks for you help
Monica
