Hey folks, this is Abel James and thanks so much for joining us on the show where we talk about real food and real results.

How do you feed your family when you're as poor as a church mouse? To help celebrate the holidays,

today we have a very special throwback episode for you with my grandmother, Nan.

When I first started this show almost 13 years ago, I bought a cheap little video camera and interviewed Nan at her house because she's pretty much my favorite person in the universe.

And as many of you know, Nan's wisdom is ever present in our work, and especially

my book, The Wild Diet. But who is Nan anyway? Well, Marion Bascom, affectionately known as Nan,

was a nurse, a second lieutenant in the U.S. Army, and a city girl who married my grandfather

Horace, a dairy farmer, and took on the challenges of tending to a

dairy farm, organic garden, and homestead while raising seven children. After living the good life

for almost a century, Nan passed away a few years ago at the age of 97. And I'm very happy to be

able to share some for wisdom with you here today.

We can all benefit from listening to a few words from the elders these days.

Get ready to smile.

You're going to love this one.

Now, before we get to the interview, just a quick word, if you're looking for more recipes

to round out your holidays and New Year, check out the Ultimate Wild Cookbook bundle.

If you love desserts as much as I do, you won't be able to get through the holidays

without indulging in a little bit of pie, cookies, cakes, and muffins, and you can make them

all wild with real food when you use the hundreds of recipes in the Ultimate Wild Cookbook

bundle.

These desserts are gluten-free, low sugar, and primarily grain-free and dairy-free as well.

But before you indulge in dessert, check out the hundreds of delicious real-food recipes for breakfast, lunch, dinner, as well as sides.
