Mid Week Check in & a recipie!

Wednesday, April 7, 2010
Hey y'all, just here to write a quickie.  Havent had much going on around here since easter.  My food eating/excersizing hasnt really picked up-still have a head cold and hacking away every few minutes-yeah...!  So on my two biggie goals that I have been wanting/needing to work on, I sorta have. I have been working on preliminary stuff, organizing my digiscrap files, and just general computer decluttering. I have been on the look out for really good cook out graphics that would work.  I still have to filter through my scanned photos and decide wich ones to use for the book, and I have to scan more photos. I am going to sneak over there late this week and grab another paper size box. My mom will be out of town and my dad wont know better - he isnt as anal about the photos as my mom is!! lol!!

On a different front I baked/cooked something new! lol! I made whole wheat flatbread like things.  I altered a recipie that called for whole wheat and white flour.  I put in regular whole wheat flour and whole wheat pastry flour (finer ground) and water of course. It was good, a little tedious.  Also they were a bit bland, would possible add spices or garlic or something next time. but they are good sammie flatbreads. 
Recipie is
-1.5C Whole wheat pastry flour
-1.5C Regular whole wheat flour
-pinch of salt
-1.25C water

Add water to flour and salt mixture.  Mix with a spoon or spatula until loosly combined. then use your hands to combine thoroughly.  Knead dough for a few minutes. Cut dou into 16 equal peices. Form each peice into a ball, then flatten by rolling or with your hands.  should be a thing round when done rolling/forming.  Place one at a time in a heated skillet on high  heat.  Once in pan peirce a few times with fork. Keep in pan for a few minutes per side.  They should appear light brown with specks of brown /black when done. Flip and cook for a few more minutes.  Do this with all peices. Enjoy!!

So yesterday I had a PB and banana sammie on the flatbread.  I like em. I entended to make them for a chicken taco like thing, but we ended up going out last night so later this week we will make em! thats it for today!!

Today I am thankful that I am learning how to eat good foods for really a first time in my life.  I have been on ww-but i always resorted to processed foods that were within points that i could eat.  Now I am really reading labels and seeing if the light version is really better than the regular version.
