day 4

This was probably my hardest "challenge" so far. While the idea really appeals to me and I occasionally go to farmer's markets, I tend to buy most of my food and ingredients from the market since it is sometimes closer and easier. There were three things I ate yesterday that were grown locally. One was an apple and the other two were a cucumber and a tomato that were in a salad I made. I decided to set my limits to food grown within 100 miles because that seems very doable. I was a vegetarian for two weeks about a year ago and got very sick because I wasn't getting enough protein so I didn't want to try that out again, especially when my immune system is very low right now since I just got over cold. There were really no hard food aspects since everything was very easy to obtain through my local farmer's market but at first it was a challenge since I didn't realize how much of my food was bought from the market but I know realize that everything is very easy to buy locally.
