Day One:
Today went well. I was busy making new recipes, trying new things, being excited and trying to keep others excited. I have some who are not all that happy to be on a fast. They need some prodding.
We enjoyed a new treat for breakfast, Skinny Pear Crisp. The pears could afford to be a little more ripe and could have cooked a bit longer. We added peanut butter to the topping, which added some extra yum to the flavor and texture. This is going on the Keep List.
For lunch, I rolled out a recipe for Indian flatbread. I needed some wraps that are made without baking powder or yeast. These turned out great. I've made tortillas before, so I know some of the tricks to keeping them soft and chewy. Another for the Keep List. :) All of the children were excited about these.
We ended the evening with a pasta meal. I didn't realize the only pasta I have in the house were egg noodles. So, that means we cheated on our first day. I was not going to the store for a couple boxes of pasta.
David and I shared a delicious anniversary dessert of Apple nachos. Sliced Granny Smith's drizzled with melted peanut butter and sprinkled with raisins, slivered almonds and cashews. So yum.
No coffee today. I totally CRASHED After lunch. I mean, napped and didn't realize I slept as long as I did.
