When you bake for your family.

I have never baked muffins. I do make healthy protein bars for my hubby but this am I made Max muffins and he loved them. I used a gluten and wheat free baking mix. Then is subsituted apple sauce for eggs and used some extra oil. I added blueberries, vanilla and cinnamon. I baked at 400 for 18 minutes and they were good for the first batch. Now I am going to experiment using different ingredients and then I can have the perfect muffin.

Scott and I are doing a wheat, gluten, soy, dairy and sugar FREE diet for the next 30 days. I have been on this for 2 weeks and lost 7 pounds but I messed up this weekend at two family holiday parties. Damn parties. Damn yummy food. But whatever I will just start over tomorrow.

I knwo you must think we eat nothing but we eat all of the time. I am experimenting with making scott bars with millet instead of oats and they turned out pretty good. It actually makes it fun to see what you can make and what you can substitute. Ah living the life with food intolernaces. Thank God I married somebody who has food stuff like me because if not-that person would be annoyed with the way we eat. One day I will post a day ijn the life of food for Rachel, Scott, Max and princess pug Esther.

I think I need to explain myself better. I have noticed that girls are more outgoing in classes or play groups. And when I say outgoing I mean that they try and get binkys or kiss or pull the boys down for a hug and snuggle or wave aka swat their hands in the air trying to touch the boys faces. I am sure this is not across the board for all girls because some girls do not go to day care and some girls are not like this for a varies number of reasons. But what I do observe is that boys will just sit there and play but the girls are so interested in coming over and getting some attention from the boys. Personally I do not see much changing as we get older.
