Damn Alarm Bird
I was too busy yesterday to post these so here they are in the now.
The Mediterranean Sun-dried Tomato Almond Bread.
The gross Mediterranean Sun-dried Tomato Almond Bread.
Here is yet more groceries... sigh. I spend way too much money at the grocery store.
But keep in mind that some of this was for a special occasion (dinner party) and some is pantry stock and will last a couple weeks to a month.
The baby spinach, beans and pine nuts (good god they're expensive!) were for the meal I made last night (Italian Rice and Beans x 4)!
Everyone loved it though and I got birthday presents in exchange so it was all good.
The Hemp seed oil was hellaexpensive too but it should last a month or so.
And I finally found raw buckwheat groats!
And now the piece de resistance...
OMG DON'T THEY LOOK DELICIOUS!?!
Yes? Too bad they were awful. I overmixed the batter and the cupcakes sank. And with all that SUGAR and FAT on top of them it just got ridiculous. There was way more icing than cupcake :(
Oh well. We had fun trying to eat them anyway. But UGH, just looking at them is making my teeth and head hurt all over again. Its amazing that not eating refined sugar for just a few days is enough to let you feel what sugar really does to the way you feel. Well not eating sugar for a few days and then eating like 6 tbsp in one cupcake ;P
