Finally all caught up. Whew!

Now I'm gonna go out and survey the damage of all of the rain and storms we got and clean the coops etc. Ya'll have a great afternoon!

still have 40 mph winds and 60 mph gusts... a couple of dead ash trees have gone down,, now it the half dead box elders would fall... lots easier to cut them up when they fall on their own... they are away from the house and where I would like to put a fence and run poultry out there.

Some kind of yeast extract sludge. I have no idea. I love it.

high in glutamates..... toxic to migraine sufferers. Beware/

Exactly!!! Full fat dairy for the win. I love whole milk yoghurt too. It is the only kind worth eating IMO.

I've been so programmed to buy fat free that when I picked up a full fat greek yogurt I thought I had died and gone to heaven! I had picked it up to make my dog's kongs.... they eat better than I do!

I was just reading https://www.consumerreports.org/yogurt/is-whole-milk-yogurt-a-whole-lot-better/

Feeney’s study, for example, found that people who ate higher-fat dairy products had just as healthy, if not healthier, triglyceride levels than those who ate lower-fat dairy products. Several studies in children have found that eating whole-fat dairy is associated with less weight gain over time than low-fat dairy. One 2013 study involving 10,700 preschoolers found that those who drank low-fat milk were more likely to be overweight or obese than those who drank whole milk.

Still, research doesn’t directly prove that eating yogurt (or any other type of dairy) causes you to be healthier, Kratz says. It could be that people who eat yogurt are healthier to begin with, he says, or that they’re eating yogurt in place of a less healthy snack, such as a jelly donut. For now you should factor any whole-milk yogurt you eat into your daily saturated-fat intake.

why make french toast with powdered sugar on top? same type of thing
When I was a kid, it's a good thing I didn't know about fairy bread...I would have had it every time my parents were busy, quick and easy to make LOL

Powdered sugar is another one of those things that I find icky. It's too sweet and so dry. French toast slathered in butter with just a touch of maple syrup is irresistible!

Full fat dairy all the way! Does non/low fat dairy go through more processing than full fat? If so, I wonder if that would contribute to health benefits (or lack thereof).

You make honey cookies exactly like how you make molasses cookies... only when you get to the molasses part, you realize you don't have any so you improvise and use honey instead
They turned out really good! Lighter and more buttery in flavor than molasses with the same chewy goodness. View attachment 1683098

If you overheat honey, you can turn it into a form that passes extremely well for molasses, both visually and in texture and taste.

Really? Neat. Does baking it count as overheating it or do you need to heat it in a pan at a specific temp for a period of time?
