In my kitchen today... and a few more GAPS articles

Certainly NOT everyday can look like this.... but today is Jason's day off and he and the boys are working on my raised beds!! So I spent a little extra time in the kitchen today....


First up- KALE CHIPS!! YUMMM-o!





Then-- some chicken liver patte'.


I took the recipe from a booklet "Healthy 4 Life" Dietary Guidelines from the Weston A PRice Foundation. (not the recipe from NT-- I didn't have those ingredients)






Then some CARROT Cake-- from the GAPS Guide book-- no flour-- just cooked carrotts...and some coconut (not flour, shredded).






For breakfast we had Squash cakes-- and they were good-- our family liked THIS recipe the best... (*I didn't have coconut milk, I used goats milk)




**Which by the way reminds me-- I so have NOT been following the proper GAPS diet-- do you know what HUGE thing I was missing????????


MILK-- I have NOT stopped giving my kids goat milk!! Now some would say-- who cares-- but milk is one of our SORE SPOTS I am hoping to HEAL thru this diet-- so starting TOMORROW-- we will only be doing 24 hour cultured goats milk. (once I culture some today). I can't beleive I totally didn't even THINK about those sippy cups of goats milk I have been handing out every monring. LOL






We fried the cakes in Beef Tallow- YUMMMMY







I love this blog, I just found it. Her before/afer pics (GAPS) are amazing!! Hse was MUCH more careful on her dinner out than I was yesterday!!

Laine's Letters

3 Years, it has been 3 years since I have updated this blog. Hoping to continue to journal our happenings. First I wanted to leave a link for Laine's Letters. Oh my these letters have been SOOOOO  encouraging to me like NOTHING else. She inspired me to spend my morning with the Lord, waiting on Him, listening to Him. She inspired me to love my husband and put him right after the Lord She inspired me to raise and love and train my children in many areas And lastly she even touched on keeping my home, to bring honor to the Lord. I want to come back (SOON) and print these off and put them in a binder for each of my daughters.   Hoping that one day these letters will inspired them as well. Laine's Letters archives

Immigrant 1880-1914 food budget

Image
So we went on a mini field trip this weekend to the Johnstown Flood Museum and then to the Heritage Center -- "Through Immigrant Eyes, tells a national story in a local context. It captures the imaginations of visitors through its innovative use of interactive media. Rather than simply looking at artifacts, you'll actually experience the sights, sounds and even the smells of immigrants' daily lives, and come away with a more complete understanding of the sacrifices and achievements of these Americans in the making. As you enter, you'll choose a card with a photo of one of eight immigrant characters, who are fictional composites based on historical facts. You then experience the daily life of that character as you tour the museum. " Well the "foodie" in me-- found a few sights VERY interesting.... the entire center was very interesting.... but-- in 1880-1914 these were some signs we saw.... "It was terribly hard work, and we lived poorly, But we ate ...

Daybook for the week of June 12, 2016 Picture for the week........                                                The birthday boy -  He turned 12 on Saturday-- ( this picture is from Thanksgiving though, I haven't down loaded my phone pictures yet though.  ) Outside my window..... Things are green, and showers today have made my garden very happy I am thinking..... About starting in with some school for the kids next week. About dipping our feet in with some potty training. About the how very deep the spiritual side of adoption is, and how constant. I am thankful for..... ...
