The squash are growing like mad right now with all this rain we've had. I just pulled 24 muffins out of the oven and put in two loaves. That oughtta keep all the cowboys and Sally Mae happy for, oh, the rest of today anyway. ;) I made a big double batch of this already doubled recipe today.

Can you come over next Saturday and show me? 'Cuz I'd really like to learn that one. And the messin' with the recipe thing? You would have a seizure if you read this recipe the way it was given to me 15+ years ago. All white flour, not even any oats, white sugar (just heaps of it). So rich, so processed. I've already done lots to it, and the kids just say it's better (read yummier) each time I make it! :D Hi Kristen,

I'd only use whole wheat flour that was sprouted first to neutralize the phytic acid in the grain, but that's the only thing I'd want to change (and that's saying a lot, b/c I mess with recipes ALL THE TIME).

I haven't done any sprouting, since it takes so long, but I soak all of my breakfast cereal in whey or vinegar and water overnight, and am trying to get into the habit of soaking things like pancakes, biscuits, and pie dough. It just takes a little forethought, something I'm still working on! I suppose it is rather intimidating. : ) I haven’t made a ton of things from it, but it’s a really good resource.

Just wanted to encourage you in your no-sugar, no-refined-flour, etc., new way of eating! (I call it a "way of eating," since "diet" sounds so temporary!) :D My family always ate pretty well, but made a pretty major switch after my youngest sister was born 2 years ago (there's a 19 year gap between us!). She was born with Down syndrome, and we wanted to give her every advantage possible. After you've become comfortable with the whole wheat flour way of doing things, you might look into the soaked/sprouted whole grains way! It's just another step in that direction. Passionate Homemaking, which you mentioned in one of your posts, has some really good information about it! The book Nourishing Traditions, by Sally Fallon, has been wonderful for our family! (If you can overlook some of the new-agey mumbo jumbo that seems to just go along with the whole "healthy eating movement.") :D Just wanted to encourage you! I love eating well, and love studying ways to make the food I make for my family even healthier! Blessings, Lauren Z Yay!

I go away for a few days and you post and post and post. I have squash planned for my garden. We are expanding our vegetable horizons. Your muffin recipe will be worth trying. I've been reading Eat This & Live by Don Colbert. You all are definately eating right! I'm going to move us in that direction by small implements. Sugar is being cut down and whole wheat is coming too. More fruits and veges and if I can raw milk and farm eggs. Our goverment approved industrial food system is killing us. <abbr><em>Cyndi Lewis’s last blog post..<a href="http://modernchristianhomestead.blogspot.com/2009/05/subversive-in-me.html" rel="nofollow">The Subversive In Me...</a></abbr></em> Good grief woman… I go away for a few days and you post and post and post.
