Beautiful poem, Hardly! Along with that box of chocolates, send some flowers, too. If you send ones that are already dried, you won't have to worry about them wilting :)
PLEASE keep asking questions, cause I'm reading and learning too!
Store-bought kombucha - any clue where it would be in the higher end grocery store? (Got one of those - the aforementioned Kroger - 45 min away, but the health food store is 1.5+ hrs away :/) Look in the organic section, I'm...
pssst - AL!!! I don't think they want to hear about our lowly 8 degree drop in temp. 'Specially when that means the temps are in the 50's instead of the 60's! :lau
Don't hate us because we live in the sunny south! :cool:
Okay, so it's not exactly survival food, and it's definitely not health food, but my peanut butter M&M's are definitely comfort food ;) ('Course, if you take them away, it might be dangerous for your health - just saying :lau )
But I finally braved it out and looked at the ingredients. No...

Reason I'm asking is the bag of lentils actually says it...

I had maybe 2/3 cup sour creamish consistency kefir and added about another 2/3 - 3/4 cup of straight kefir (buttermilkish consistency) - for a total of approx 1-1/2 cup
Used...
So, since my beans have been soaked 24 hrs, and now gone overnight in the crock pot on low, and are still, ummm, crunchy is a good word, I should add a pinch of baking soda?
And how much/little whey do I use? The bag said to use 8 cups of water, and I had abt 1/2 cup of whey, so I used that +...
I love my in-laws - all of them, the whole family! I'm glad to be only about 3 hrs away. It's the one I'm still legally married to I can't stand :sigh: But I'll shut up now before I hijack the thread ;)
