Eat locally

“You can’t predict what you’re eating at a restaurant, but when you make it yourself, you can. Plus, it tastes better. Growing up, I ate meat and potatoes—vegetables were always on one side of the plate. But now I eat more of them because they’re loaded with fibre and water content. Charlotte and I are vegetarian-centric, but we have fish, chicken and lean red meat, too. And you know, it’s the little things: Charlotte knows that in the morning, I’m not going to take time to chop up strawberries and put them on my cereal. So sometimes when I get up, I’ll find that she has cut up a bowl of strawberries for me. It’s hilarious!”
