The Prince's Speech: On the Future of Food

Have you foodies heard of the book “On the Future Of Food” by Prince Charles? I just read this article from the Huff Post about it (which also reminded me that I need to put “Omnivore’s Dilemma” back on the top of my to-read list when I have a chance) and I am intrigued!

I’ve recently concluded that my life seems to be lacking passion (or at least things I feel really strongly about), so I’m going to start to fix that by being passionate about my health. I’ve been dramatically increasing my trips to the gym and tackling food intake is right up there, too.

In fact, I was inspired by a good girlfriend of mine to keep a daily food journal, so I’ve been documenting what I consume for the past 3 weeks in this cute little notebook I found on a shopping trip. (Of course it says “Life is short, eat dessert first.” Hey! It’s all in moderation, eh?) I’m not being so strict as to track calories, but it definitely makes me think twice about eating something if I know I have to write it down later.

I’m thinking I may want to grab a couple of these books listed above for further inspiration/motivation, too. What are some of your favorite books and/or tricks to eat healthy, ladies? Love, Nik
