Pat - A Bread Affair

I was at the Kits market last weekend and met Pat, owner of A Bread Affair, who showed me his 100-mile-bread. The blueberry hazelnut loaf uses all local, organic ingredients, except for the salt which comes from Unity Saskatchewan. there is something wholesome and grounding about this local bread; it keeps me connected to the source, makes me more conscious. I’m no saint when it comes to buying only local food, but I applaud Pat and his bread!

When I lived at the Ashram we took the 100 mile diet to the extreme, tried to eat only food that we grew, available in the surrounding forest, or out of the lake. We held an event called 128 meter diet, which is the distance from the garden gate to the Ashram kitchen. We spent the whole day gathering food and preparing the meal and took two hours to eat consciously. See the video of that day.
