In the Name of the Father,
Fwd: Cute little story
This is a text my husband just sent me from home while I am in the hospital with Morgan treating her pneumonia and he has the others.
Right after we got back from the car ride, Manny started askin for "Melman" so me n Mace thought he meant that stupid giraffe on Madagascar n was about to look it up online, but he kept saying "no,no, i want Melman" so r next guess was mail and started 2 go to mailbox but he said "Melman daddy, i show u" so he walks me downstairs, has me open the fridge and starts pointing at the watermelon! otherwise known as Melman... then he proceeded to eat about 3 full bowls of it.
So sweet!

In the Name of the Father,
The Son, and the Holy Spirit Amen.
Manny loves his candle and prayer time and he is working on blessing himself properly. It's so sweet. That's his little hand but it looks so big on the picture.

Review- Way Better Chips
Yeah, these are just delicious. Oh. And they are gluten free to boot. They are made with sprouted flax, chia seed, quinoa, radish seed and broccoli seed. I tore into them before I took the pict. Sorry.

Recipe Keeper/Binder Idea
still having problems flipping pictures, sorry |
-I can just print a recipe I like, slip it into the protective cover and NOT loose it.
-I can sit at my kitchen table, on my couch, in my bed and leaf through it and pull out recipes I am going to use which is so much more convenient than marking pages and writing things down. I'm thinking of starting a weekly, maybe biweekly, menu binder with recipes that I have pulled to be really organized.
-the protective sheets keep them clean-I'm a very good, but messy baker
-I can take the recipe and by using a magnet, stick it up on my stove hood so that it is easy to follow and this also helps keep me from dropping butter and flour on it. Just make sure your flame cant reach it. I usually only cook on one side of my stove for some reason so I keep it on the other side. I also use a magnet to stick them to the fridge if I am using both sides of my stove.
-Your binder/binders can grow with your collection and interest
-I love pictures with my recipes so when I print them I print the picture or now that I am getting a little more computer friendly I make documents with my own recipes or modify recipes and add the pictures myself
-when a friend likes a recipe of yours its easy to take out of your binder and photocopy for them- I don't believe in hoarding a great recipe- you must share!

Classic
Manny, who is 2 1/2 , just walked up to Mason (6) and said "I'm sorry, I love you." And we were all like "aw". And then Manny says, "Let's go run and fight."
I had to write it down cause thats just one of those cute moments you get with little ones who are just really learning to talk and get out what they want. Manny was apologizing for something then letting Mason know he wanted to play. They run all around the living room and play "fight". Its so cute to see them playing now and to see how different boys play after having 3 girls.

Peanutbutter Cake with Chocolate Icing
Ingredients
Combine butter, water and peanut butter in saucepan and bring to boil. Pour over flour mixture. Add milk, vanilla and eggs. Mix. Pour in large cookie sheet or jelly roll pan. Bake at 400F degrees for 20 minutes. This cake was very good. The original recipe is HERE at the http://tastykitchen.com/ I halved the recipe above just to try it out and I baked it in a parchment lined 9x9 square Pamper Chef stoneware pan. I also didn't make the peanutbutter icing it calls for but a homemade chocolate buttercream icing instead. |

Keeping Busy
Manny took a few trains to play with today. He's been behaving pretty well at Liturgy. He loves his "Jesus Bread" so he tries very hard to behave for it and to light a candle afterwards.
1st Kombucha Brew
I let it brew for 10 days and it is quite vinegary- if that's a word ;). It's very hot here, temps have been near 100 and we don't have whole house air so this next brew I'm going to go for a shorter brewing time. But it is good and a new mother grew on top.
This first brew I did with Lipton tea bags and white sugar. The next one I'm doing with one regular black tea bag and nearly one tablespoon of Red Rooibos tea. I also used organic sugar this time as well.
I am flavoring this first brew with organic peach and organic red raspberry for atleast 2 days. I'll post how it turns out.

Little Apple Handpies
I made these today to try pie crust with sprouted flour. The one on the right is sprouted and the left is unbleached white. The sprouted was a bit harder to work with but came out pretty yummy. The dough is just stiffer and not as soft but I plan on trying the white wheat sprouted flour soon and I think I will like the results a bit better.
