Eat your broth at every meal!

Broth broth, the more you eat the better you feel
So, eat your broth at every meal...

Ahhh the GAPS diet. Apparently heals all things in your body.

Its very similar to the SCD diet "specific carbohydrate diet" which is quite similar to what I already did to begin with BUT it includes fruits and honey. The GAPS diet just incorporates broth and fermented veggies or kefir at every meal.

So... I need lots of broth.

Lance went on his first Turkey hunt last weekend. From what I've heard it was an AWESOME time. He and my nephew Ryan shot their first turkey's ! Woot woot. He told me stories of them ducking and crawling through the woods, driving the truck all through the mountains, and munching on "Ferris bars" (our rendition of Cliff bars but better because they are Ferris bars). Thank you so much, dad, for showing Lance how REAL MEN have a good time ;-)

I don't know how to rotate it and I want to go to bed... so turn your head. :-) 

If you have trouble with the head turn, don't worry, more pics to come when I get them from dad. I'll try to make them rightside up :-)

So, here's for the great part. Since I eat broth 3x a day I requested the turkey bones.

I know, I'm the queen of strange requests...

Anyway, we had the "pleasure" of butchering our first turkey. Oh yes, my friends, my husband will do anything to make me happy. He brought home that turkey completely intact (except for the head - phew, thank you for that)

AND... just like that wasn't enough. He's friend Randy gave us his turkey too.. meat and all.

What a nice guy.

So, I made about 8 gallons of broth. That's right, my friends 8 gallons. No freezing that stuff either. Nope, this girl will drink all of it because I'm that cool and determined to get my body to heal naturally.

Here is what I have left .. that's about 4/5 gallons there and 1/2 gal in our other fridge....

Which means... yes... i have already drank (drunk, dranked.. ugh whatever) 3 gallons this week.

Don't be jealous. 

So, if you are ever tempted to pull out some bouillon cubes (i.e. artificial crappo that will do nothing for your gut health) or a can of chicken noodle soup (don't even get me started on how NOT good that is for you). Do me (and your gut) a favor and consider making yourself some broth.

...and for your viewing pleasure... 

A violet smile. Oh and she rolled over yesterday too! She's getting so big :-)
