  1. And eating cupcakes while your kids are doing schoolwork is a bad thing because.......... :leaving:

     

    Actually I prefer to eat my cupcakes AND surf the net in the other room while waiting for my kids to finish their work - because if I'm in the same room as them they all want to share :drool5:

     

     

     

    This is breakfast people. You don't eat cupcakes for breakfast. You eat frosted muffins

  2.  

    The willingness you have for stretching the boundaries of normal time management is beginning to awe me.

     

     

    Yeah at first I was kinda going with partially crazy but now that I read more I'm sure of it. As a former figure skater and a mother who drug me out of bed every morning at 4 am you HAVE to be a bit nutty to put up with that

     

    OP you sound like a dear.

     

    Next time he pulls that tell him he has to pay you back for your time and your rate is $1000 an hour :lol:

  3. I had to try it once and no one else new there were beans in it. The look on their faces LOL. SO many people like them though and say you can't taste the bean

  4. Not for anything, but if you're spending 4 hours making your own cereal, it's costing you a lot more in time and effort than the "arm and a leg" you'd pay for packaged cold cereal. Your time is worth money, too, and spending 4 hours of it to make some cereal doesn't seem like a money-saver (or a great use of your time) to me.

     

    Sorry to sound so critical, but I'm just not understanding the rationale behind this. :confused:

     

     

     

    That's what I was thinking. And it doesn't look that good either. One recipe called for a mix of flour and water to be baked. Not saying that is what she's making, but ick

  5. Potatoes were definitely one of my downfalls. I do LOVE potatoes. But, it'll be a year in February since I last had one.

    Do you have any trouble getting back to the lchf woe after you've eaten carbs? That's a huge fear of mine, that I wouldn't be able to get back on track because of the cravings that would come back.

     

    Also, this weekend I'm trying several new-to-me cookie recipes in the hopes of finding one or two that would appeal to non-lowcarbers for a cookie exchange. So far, I'm disappointed. I want a really wow recipe and am just not finding what I'm looking for. I did find one recipe that I like a lot, but the cookies are too fragile for an exchange. The original recipe called for wheat flour and I subbed almond four. I'm wondering if subbing coconut flour instead might work.

     

     

     

    No I don't have a problem. I'm about 80/20 with being good vs not. I work out heavy and that keeps things steady for me. I don't have any health problems or food intolerances besides dairy so that probably plays a factor.

     

    That and I'm not LC like some. I eat loads of veggies, some fruit, and I do eat lentils

  6. If you want a punchy color you can't beet BM Aura.

     

    I almost exlusively use Sherwin William's Home Duration in Satin. It is scrubbable and not as shiny as some other satins. The only paint I absolutely can't stand is Lowes Valspar. it is very drippy and runny. It is the messiest paint ever. For boxtore paint Home depots Behr is decent.

     

    SW did color match BM's Jicama for me. It is so exact that I actually spot painted over some nail holes on a wall I had painted with BM in the same color.
