I grew up in Lancaster County, Pennsylvania — plain country, Amish neighbors, a garden out back, and a mother who never bought anything she could make herself.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eI didn't write this book because someone asked me to. I wrote it because I went through something hard, and these recipes are what got me through it.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eIn my late fifties, my digestive system fell apart. I won't go into all the details, but I spent two years in and out of doctors' offices, trying medications that made things worse, and feeling like my body had turned against me. Conventional medicine didn't have much to offer me. What it offered, I didn't want.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eSo I went back to what I knew. I started paying attention to what I was eating — really paying attention. I cut out refined sugar. I stopped buying processed flour. I started using bananas and dates to sweeten things, avocado for richness, oats for substance. I didn't follow a program. I just cooked the way my mother taught me, but smarter.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eWithin six months, I felt better than I had in years.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eThese recipes are what I actually make.
