this morning we did all of the above and it has been lovely -- it snowed in the mountains last night an i just can't stop looking at how beautiful it is to see the last hurrah of winter and the showy presentation of spring in the same picture...
two new recipes from this morning...
oatmeal raspberry scones -- we substituted blueberries and tried out bob's red mill gluten free all purpose baking flour instead of regular wheat flour -- just working on adding a little more variety to our diet -- they turned out quite delicious -- the nutmeg was very flavorful -- wondering how much of a change the blueberries vs. raspberries makes...
in addition to the scones we had quick date-apple-cinnamon oatmeal from the kind diet cookbook -- your basic bowl of oatmeal with some add-ins -- dates, apples, walnuts, cinnamon, maple syrup, steel cut oats (not in the original recipe, just a favorite of ours right now) -- just a sprinkle of each -- very tasty, healthy, and filling -- oh, and quick -- super great idea for during the week -- just put it all in a boil, pour the hot/boiling water on top and add a lid -- on the go or eat it up at home ---
did i mention that lulu likes to cook/beg too? -- we had an apple catching contest at the end of the meal -- she one, barely -- bridger was pretty close to beating her, might have too if we hadn't run out of apples...
happy weekending!
