Alliterations

I have been reading a lot of blogs about interior decorating, restoring vintage furniture, and DIY decorating. Amidst all the different preferred brands of paint, sand paper, and the constant battle between Lowe’s and Home Depot, they all agree on one thing: start with a plan. You can’t just say ‘I want to decorate my home’ and start buying random stuff, you have to have a plan. You have to get some inspiration, do some research, choose color schemes, decide what furniture you actually need; otherwise you end up with a bunch of great stuff that is completely non-functional…

Is interior decorating really any different than eating raw food? No! (Haha actually prolly they’re way different, but whatever, just pretend)

When starting a new diet/lifestyle, you can’t just say ‘I want to eat healthy’ and suddenly you’re started. You have to have a plan. A color scheme. A foundation for your food choices. When my mom had cancer, she spent hours and hours reading about wheatgrass, sprouts, raw food, the Macrobiotic diet, Gerson therapy, and countless other books/articles about health and alternative medicine. She spent MORE hours reading the scriptures, looking for things that Heavenly Father wants us to know about food. The one she read most often was Doctrine and Covenants Section 89, called ‘The Word of Wisdom’.

When looking for ways to start, I decided my mom was a pretty good source, so that's where I started too. This is my foundation for food, my word of wisdom, my body's basic building block of.....I honestly can't think of another good 'b' word....I'm sure you get the idea. I thought of one: Beauty! My body's basic building block of beauty! HA!

The moral of the post is:  Choose your foundation and roll with it!
