Wilderness, horses, hats, and big-old trucks...Sounds like my sort of place! I'm keen to to get to Canada as I said before. It'll happen, no doubt, and it's those more remote, or less-populated areas I will have high on the list of where to go. I had an uncle that lived in Toronto, my dad's brother, but I just never got there for some reason. It's a long way from Australia.
I'm fortunate that I manage my sugar levels with diet although I take pills too. I still eat sugars, but sparingly. As you say, it's so hard not to when everything is sugars or carbohydrates these days. It sounds like you're on the right track with natural eating and self-prep. Why aren't you my neighbour...I'd mow your lawn for a few take-away packs of some of that tasty food! Wash your truck too. Lol.
Those fancy teas sound ok, do they come with scones, strawberry jam and cream? Lol
