But even just flipping through I can already tell this is a book for the heart. On France, I must say it was life changing to visit. I have never felt so connected with a place, for a variety of personal reasons, and for the obvious beauty. The milk question is a good one; They eat a lot of cheese of course, much of which is unpasteurized (and lo and behold - they are fine!), but I honestly am not sure on milk itself. Milk is a huge subject for me right now, which I'll be exploring here on AlmostFit very soon. Sally Fallon's book is having the same effect on us. We have just signed up for a course with a local woman who teaches how to eat whole foods and locally farmed products on very little money - from the looks of it her method involves a lot of homemade foods rather than packaged store bought, and so forth. We're really excited to take her course -- I'll report back on that too! @DG: Joie de Vivre really is excellent, though I have been too busy in the last few weeks to really get into it.

I'm going to check out those books on French cuisine that you mentioned. There's something about France that absolutely captivates me! I'm dying to learn more about their cooking. It's so great that you've actually been there! I was wondering, do they drink much milk there? Sally Fallon's book, "Nourishing Traditions" is an excellent one indeed. That book was responsible for turning my life around nutritionally. Ever since then my passion for seeking out real food has grown tremendously. Thanks for the suggestions.

I am currently glued to Nina Planck's book - it is simply incredible, the things that we eat without realizing what's been put into the foods we all accept as "healthy enough". It truly is fascinating! @Andrew: Don’t do it…even the knowledge of it can drop your metabolism… :)
