Happy Birthday America
and it is the Hodgepodge.
Joyce asks the questions.
We answer the questions.
1. What does freedom mean to you?
This
is a difficult question for me to answer, because I could take it in so
many directions. I have decided to take it regarding food.
Freedom to me means you have the right to decided what is best for you and your family.
I will share an example of how I look at freedom...
If you want to drink raw milk, you should be able to drink raw milk.
I already know what some people will say to me, "Carla, drinking raw milk has risks. People can get sick."
My answer to this is, "How can you have freedom without risks."
I was raised on drinking raw milk.
2. How will you celebrate Independence Day this year? If you live
outside the USA answer this question as it relates to your own country's
patriotic holiday, wherever that may land on the calendar.
We will be celebrating America's birthday as a family in August. This Independence Day our family is going in different directions.
