Farmer's Market.

 Now that Scarlett is eating pretty much whatever we eat, our eating habits have changed. They have improved, actually. I can tell you that I have a major sweet tooth. I love chocolate, sweets and pastries. Before Ty came into my life, my meals consisted of a lot of frozen meals, sandwiches and cereal. Ty loves to cook. He has broadened my taste in food. But it was really Scarlett that got us to take a serious look at what we were eating. Since then, I've always tried to feed her organic food. Not because it's the new trend, as it seems. It was because I grew up eating out of a garden. Fresh and healthy with no pesticides.
We have started buying organic as much as possible. Doing this, literally makes our grocery bill go up a $100 a trip. This is where the farmer's market comes in. What an amazing place to buy fresh, local & inexpensive food. We took a trip there this weekend with Ty's sister, who came to stay with us this weekend. 
Me: Jardin Skirt: J Crew, Polka Dot Blouse: Thrifted, Braided Belt: Karmaloop
Scarlett: Printed Dress: H&M, Jean Vest: Old Navy, Sandals: TJ Maxx, Stuffed Animal: A mini sock monkey, which she has named, 'Number 9'.

  18. I definitely try to buy organic as much as possible, too - it makes our grocery bill kind of ridiculous, but I feel so much better about what I eat that way.

    You look waaaay cuter than I do when I go to the farmer's market! I love your polka dot top.
