A Month With The Calls

Chelsea, Spencer, and Piper lived with us for a month while they were in transition between Michigan and London.  It was such a wonderful experience.  We loved having them in our home.  It was fun to see Piper at all times of the day, hearing her babbles, and watching her eat new foods.  She learned to climb stairs while she was here.  She loved it and got fast at it.  We also got to witness her first steps and to see how she got more confident each day.  We miss them, but we know they are having an awesome adventure together in London.

Kamut Flour

Let me introduce you to Kamut brand flour.
Thanks goes to The Food Nanny for distributing it here in Utah and teaching me how to use it. This is an organic white all-purpose flour that is grown in Montana.  It comes from a strain of wheat that traces back to ancient Egypt and has never been genetically modified.  "Kamut" is the ancient Egyptian word for wheat.  It is naturally superior to other all-purpose flour in protein content, antioxidants, vitamins and minerals.  It is prized for its heightened nutrition, ease of digestibilitiy, flavor and texture.
And let me tell you, it is GOOD!  I have never been a bread maker until now.  It is easy to work with, and everything I have made with it is so yummy and turns out great.  Matt can eat it without it bothering his stomach, but he still is careful about not eating too much of it.
I use it in everything that calls for flour... gravy, sauces, cookies, pancakes, pizza dough, muffins, etc., and of course, all breads.
It is a bit more expensive, but I think it is worth it for all the above reasons.  Here are pics of just a few things I have made with it.
