Getting Back to Normal, Whole-some foods and Iron Chef
February 16th, 2006 , by adminJust wanted to let you all know that we're doing fine now. The little ones are back to normal, just a bit more hungry than usual (my 3 yo has regained the weight he lost and the baby has gained much more). So they're keeping me busy cooking, eating, and feeding.
I've been watching a bit more TV while walking with the baby and nursing. Food TV is my default channel, and a funny idea occured to me after watching many episodes of Iron Chef. It would be hilarious if the secret ingredient was some sort of junk food, like Fruit Loops, Pop Tarts, Wheat Thins or even condensed soup. I bet the chefs would fall over! Would make a fun April Fools episode. Real foods are really the way to go. I may never eat foi gras or urchin roe, but hey, at least it's whole. Seeing processed foods advertised as "wholesome" makes me really wonder when the "whole" in wholesome lost all meaning.
I'll write more when I get caught up with life again. Valentines was nice, I made my son and husband an apple pie (gluten-free of course). It was good, but not as good as the one I made for Christmas because I ran out of rice flour and had to substitute. It's still as good as most any apple pie you'll find.
