Progress

I'm inching towards healthy again. One sign is being interested in food again. This caught my eye:

Imagine a flavorful, rich, creamy substitute for the butter we can't have anymore, without the transfats, odd chemical ingredients or incipient blandness. I'll definitely be playing with this in recipes over the winter.

What flavor are interested in whipping up?

Still down with medical issues

Sorry for the extended delay. I'm still knocked out fighting a bug or two.

Delay of Cooking

Sorry for this is a small hiatus, my CVID is taking precedence with a knock-me down. A precursor of flu & cold season.

In the mean time, I'll be reading cookbooks looking for recipes to try with Lundberg's new rice couscous http://blueskyworld.wordpress.com/2010/08/31/lundberg-giveaway/#comment-8457 and Lucini's Cinque e' Cinque garbanzo crepes http://shop.lucini.com/Cinque-e-Cinque--NEW/c/Lucini@Cinque. For a beautiful post about the Lucini products visit Gluten Free Girl and the Chef, that is where I read about the intriguing European treats: http://glutenfreegirl.blogspot.com/2010/08/lucini-gluten-free-chickpea-frittata.html

Before you know it I'll be up and cooking again. If possible go buy lavender blooms at Penzey's, we'll celebrate with lavender martinis or lavender lemonade.
