We are infinite spiritual beings inhabiting a finite human host. Captain your own destiny and eat life
before life eats you! The greatest tragedy in life is not death, it is what we let die inside ourselves
while still alive. Recognizing the human being in all people to promote a sustainable peace!

of my flours, yeast and a number of the other baking products that I use regularly are purchased
locally from Bobs Red Mill. As an investigative journalist, consumer advocate and your fellow
