I work on a farm. I take care of pigs, chickens and cows. I like fresh eggs that come directly from a farm. I have three kids. Two of my kids are not in high school and one of them is a high school freshman. I've been to college. I liked going to college. I did not go to community college. I studied philosophy. I am passionate about my profession. I empathize with others.
I have 2 small dogs. I like to eat eggs. I'm on my high school track team. I participate in track and field. It is my last year of high school. I plan to go to college. I get good grades. My parents did not attend college. I am the first in my family to go to college. I want to be a nurse. I like to help people. I plan on working in an emergency room after graduation. I have no college educated family members.
My chickens have been laying eggs with very orange yolks lately, you would love them. That is so cool! Do they taste better than regular eggs with yellow yolks? I'm not sure, but maybe I'll do a taste comparison. My kids love the color, though. And any way I can get my kids to eat eggs is a good thing. My mom says I hated eggs as a kid, too. She had to mix them into my other foods without me knowing to get me to eat them. What kind of foods do your kids like? Pretty much anything, but I try to give them foods that they can recognize. We're not vegans, so it's pretty easy to make meals for them. I try to stay away from too much processed foods, too. I'm not a health nut, but I want my kids to eat a variety of foods. What about you? What do you like to eat? Well, I really like steak but lately I have trying to do a vegan diet so I've been eating a lot of raw vegetables. Hopefully healthy eating will help me get that track scholarship!  Yes, healthy eating is good for a healthy body. But don't forget, you need your protein. You're still growing and you need your strength. Obviously you can get your protein from a vegan diet, but it can be quite restrictive. Sorry, that's the mom in me coming out! Ha! That's exactly what my mom said when I told her I was going vegan. You moms are all alike, lol. I have been trying to eat a lot of nuts a few times a day to make sure I get enough protein. Do you have any other suggestions for vegan protein?  Yes, we're all alike! HaHa! Well, there's tofu of course. There are lots of ways to prepare it. And all those plant based meat products are good, too. Or so I've heard. I've never actually tried it, though. You can always take supplements, but I would go for natural sources of protein myself. That's a great idea! I will look up some tofu recipes today. You seem to know a lot about nutrition. Did you take any classes in that field when you were in college? Or is it just something you learn from growing food yourself? No no classes. It's just something you learn on your own when you have kids. Plus being on a farm makes you look at nutrition a lot. You have to make sure your animals are healthy or else you go out of business! Well you really know your foods, so I bet you raise great quality meat. Do you every sell your meats to individuals? I'd love to buy some (as soon as I'm done being vegan, that is.)
