Great goals! Since I work I am on the computer all day so I get tired of looking at it. That is why I don't have a regular post on Friday and Saturday. If I didn't have it for work, I might have the opposite problem.
ReplyDeleteHa!! Your sink looks like mine right now.
ReplyDeleteOoooh! Please let us know how the vegan, gluten-free pancakes turn out. I'm always on the hunt for a good gluten-free pancake recipe. And if its vegan, even better!
ReplyDeleteFor flour-free vegan pancakes - try googling vegan almond flour pancakes. There are many recipes out there. :) I'm sure there are also versions using rolled oats if you allow that in your diet. :)
ReplyDelete3 ingredient banana pancakes from glutenfreefix.com : 2 over ripe bananas, 2 eggs, 1/2 cup almond butter or peanut butter
ReplyDeleteOh, I apologize. I didn't see that you said Vegan.
ReplyDeleteSo I have a question.. I have been doing bodypump for four months and am builidng up my weights. I don't want to get bulky looking how much do you lift for your muscle groups? Thanks for your time.

Hi there, I found your blog from the Mama's Write website. I'm so glad I stumbled on here too. I feel like God has been working on me about being more intentional about planning out my day so seeing your post was confirmation of what I've been seeing. Hope to meet you at the conference.
ReplyDeleteHave you tried using Coconut Flour? I have just recently started to cut out wheat & other flours (I am eating a mostly Paleo diet) and I'm having a lot of fun with it! I've made excellent coconut flour waffles (somehow seems to work better than pancakes which seem to break easily). I'm using this recipe here: http://www.nomeatnom.com/2012/04/coconut-flour-waffles.html You can substitute the eggs with 1 Tbs ground flaxseed mixed with 3 Tbs of water (per egg). Applesauce can also sub for eggs, but you'll need to experiment :-)
