Oops, guess it’s been three months. What happened? Homeschooling 
We are in a routine now though and I keep thinking it’d be nice to start this blog back up…why not start now
What we’ve been up to. Still trying to find my way around traditional foods. I think it is safe to say I have cooking down. I can modify recipes, I can make broth, my freezer is full of produce and my fridge is full of fermented foods. Baking….yeah, um, let’s just say that my old love of baking and my desire to bake traditionally are really butting heads and the end products are no where near tasty. HELP! Any and all advice welcome.
I did find this recipe somewhere, not even sure if it follows traditional guidelines but I serve it with a glass of raw milk and call it close if not on:
Easy Peanut Butter Cookies
- 1/2 c Peanut Butter (natural (peanuts and salt) of course)
- 1/2 c finely ground Rapadura
- 2 eggs, beaten
Combine until well mixed. Drop by Tablespoon-fulls onto cookie sheets and bake at 350 for 10-12 minutes being careful not to overbake.
My girls really like these and they are easy enough that they can make them pretty much on their own.
The holidays are upon us and our tree is up, the lights outside twinkling in the snow, Christmas is coming. What on earth am I going to offer my family in place of the sugar laden stuff we will encounter for weeks on end? I am glad to have the above cookies under my belt, I’ve found a hot cocoa recipe that I’m still thinking needs something (butter?), but what about the cakes, candies, desserts? What should I have my parents fill the girls’ stockings with (food=love…they own a restaurant)? Here I say not only is advice welcome, but PLEASE send advice my way!
In exchange I promise to start blogging again on a regular basis. As in, every few days you will find a post from me. I promise to start blogging what we’ve been eating the past few days, even if we’ve slipped and it’s embarrassing to admit. I promise to post recipes my family loves for you to try. I also promise that I still have a lot to learn!
