Gleanings of Wheat

Now that Halloween is dying down you've got a choice to make - toss the pumpkin you carved or eat it! If you opt for the latter then here's a recipe for you! PUMPKIN PIE To make a failproof piecrust, use a pastry cutter or a fork to cut together 1/2 cup of margarine, butter, rendered lard, or vegetable shortening, 2 cups of whole wheat flour, and 1/4 teaspoon of salt ... until the mixture forms pea-sized balls. Now, in a small bowl, combine I large egg, I tablespoon of vinegar (plain or cider), and 3 tablespoons of cold water. Add this to the flour mixture, a little at a time, until the dough holds the form of a ball. (If needed, add more cold water, but do so a drop at a time.), Finally, divide the dough into two balls, roll each one out on a breadboard or wax paper that you've dusted with flour, and use them to line two 9 " pie plates. To prepare the filling, mix 4 well-beaten eggs, 3 cups of pumpkin puree, 1/2 cup of honey, 1/2 cup of molasses, I teaspoon eac

I came across this earlier today and thought it was a great way to save some money on your Halloween stuff. Simply mix 3 tbsp cornstarch and 1 tbsp flour together. Stir in 3/4 cup light corn syrup and 1/4 cup water and mix until smooth. Divide mixture into several paper cups and use food coloring to tint. Use a paint brush or cotton swab to apply; wash off later with water.

Paul, a servant of God...according to the faith of God's elect (Titus 1:1) - He is a servant of God, serving his brethren of the faith according to their faith. If they did not have faith he could not serve them as God has called him to serve. Paul, a servant of God...acknowleding of the truth which is after godliness; In hope of eternal life, which God, that cannot lie, promised before the world began (Titus 1:1-2) - He is a servant because of the transforming power and hope of the Truth. He rests in the hope and promises of the infallible God that cannot lie. Being confident of the Truth he goes forth to serve according to the commandment he received (vs 3). REFLECTIONS ON PAUL'S MINISTRY: His faith is a faith that permiates his life, his faith is a faith that compells him to exhort and encourage others in their walk. Of the 13 books he authored of the New Testament we know he wrote 4 of them to individual people he cared for and 9 of them are written to churches he est

I've been meaning to find more recipes that are people with food allergies friendly, and since I'm in the mood for my fish tacos I thought I'd start with tortillas. I got this one from here, and it looks like the site has a lot of other recipes too. (makes 8 tortillas that are gluten free and casein free) 2 c. Gluten Free All-Purpose Flour Mix 1 1/2 tsp. xanthan gum 2 tsp. sugar 1 tsp. salt 1 c. warm water 1. Add the dry ingredients to a large mixing bowl and mix the ingredients thoroughly. (I do this with my hand) 2. Add the cup of warm water to the bowl and mix the dry goods into the water with your hand. Just squish it all up until all of the dry ingredients are no longer dry. And then keep mixing a minute longer because it’s fun and we should all be pretend we’re kids once in a blue moon. =) 3. Separate the dough into 8 pieces and roll each piece into a ball. Place all but one of the dough balls back into the bowl and cover with plastic wrap until you’re

Apparently I haven't posted the fish taco recipe?! Forgive my oversight.

Italian Seasoning Melt butter in pan. Add ketchup, vinegar, salt, mustard and Italian Seasoning. Bring to a boil. Pour over chicken in baking dish. Usually use 4 to 6 chicken breasts for this. I use boneless but my mom always used the chicken with the bone in. Bake at 400* for an hour. (that is most likely when using chicken with the bone. I use boneless and average between 45 to 50 min. for this.) Just check.

And she puts recipes on her blog!!!! I'm so excited!!!! I promise my exclamation isn't stuck. Caprese "Sandwich" -olive oil -one pressed or chopped garlic clove (more if you really like garlic) -pocket-less pitas (or you can use any kind of flatbread) -tomato -fresh basil -one ball of fresh mozzarella cut in half -shredded Parmesan cheese or Romano or both First, preheat the oven to 350 degrees Fahrenheit. While you are waiting for the oven to heat up, put 1-2 tablespoons of olive oil into a small dish. Crush or chop one clove of garlic (or more if you like garlic) into the olive oil. Let it sit for a few minutes for the oil to absorb the garlic flavor. (This step could be skipped, especially if you are like me and are ravenously hungry while trying to prepare this and also want to try and fit in eating it in between nursing and naps.) Spread olive oil over a pocket-less pita. Sprinkle pita with as much or as little Parmesan and/or Romano cheese

Earlier this week my daughter started running a fever in the middle of the night, being the wonderful mother that I am, I would never dream of hiding the meds in some pudding. Nor would I ever eat ALL the left over pudding, thus forcing me to make another batch up for her. Twice . This weekend while my kids were visiting their uncle (who is on leave from Afganistan) I certainly did not go out to eat after church with two families who had all their kids in tow. Furthermore, I was not ridiculously excited when I found out that we were going to Old Country Buffet and that OCB now had a slushie machine. I certainly would never eat a ton of food and then stuff myself even more simply b/c the cake on the dessert bar looked amazing. Additionally, I did not toy with the idea of going back to get a mousse that looked really good despite the fact that I was ready to burst. After eating I did not volunteer to walk the two boys over to guitar center so that the three of us wouldn
