| Smoothie time |
Today I wanted to post about something that seriously haunts me. To do lists. We all have them. Some are longer than others, some shorter. While many of you are probably excellent at getting your to do list done. I am not. My to do list goes unseen and unchecked for weeks at a time. Projects, grocery lists, meal plans, ideas, exercise routine and reading schedule all stack up until I throw it away and start over.
One of the hardest things for me to do on my list is meal planning. With David and Calvin's intolerance to wheat, gluten, rice and dairy I am very limited in my kitchen and have to be extremely creative. It has been an uphill battle these last two years trying to make the switch from our comfortable, delicious, gluteny food to the dense, dry and at times tasteless gluten free food.
I know there is great gluten free food out there but the fact of the mater is I can't, nor do I want to, spend a zillion dollars on 10 different flours to make one loaf of bread and I don't have the time to be in my kitchen all day and night.
I am trying my best, finding new recipes and praying God would some how make my boring chicken and veggies taste like chicken fried steak and macaroni and cheese. It hasn't happened yet but I wont give up:)
