The <em>scleritis<\/em> has not come back and I&#8217;ve been off all meds for over a week! I couldn&#8217;t be more pleased with this experiment. My scale is in the closet, so I can&#8217;t tell you how much I&#8217;ve lost. It was becoming too much of a focal-point fo rme. Something I&#8217;ve had issues with in the past. That is not what this eating plan was all about. Either way, I&#8217;m happy to say: <strong>my immune system has been boosted!<\/strong>\u00a0That&#8217;s what I was after. Go Veggies!<\/span><\/p>\n<p>This week I joined an on-line Gluten-Free cooking school. Mary Frances gives free lessons that come by email, you just sign up. It&#8217;s too easy! So far I&#8217;ve made her muffins, tortillas and cookies. All excellent, especially the muffins which my picky kids ate up. Her website and blog can be found at: glutenfreecookingschool.com<\/p>\n<p>Mary takes all of the mystery out of creating your own all-purpose flour mixture with a simple recipe. Once you mix a bag of this, the sky&#8217;s the limit on baking (which I love to do). Last night as I made tollhouse chocolate chip cookies for the family, and I had my own almond butter\/oatmeal\/chocolate chip balls for myself.<\/p>\n<p>Today while I cooked up a storm for this crew (all things I don&#8217;t eat), I kept my yummy muffins near with a mug of hot tea.\u00a0I&#8217;ve mostly been dual-cooking with just a bit of crossover dishes we all eat. The more daring of my kids will <em>try<\/em> whatever I&#8217;m eating, otherwise it&#8217;s just me enjoying my new recipes.<\/p>\n<p>I love finding something new when I go to the store, like a <em>strange vegetable or fruit<\/em>. Last trip I decided on fennel root which I boiled until soft, ran through the food processor and ate like mashed potatoes- yummy! The time before that I bought parsnips (white carrots) that blended great with other veggies in a chicken broth soup.<\/p>\n<p><span style=\"line-height: 24px;\">The crock pot is a lifesaver in helping \u00a0me get all our dishes ready at the same time. So far so good&#8230; Thank you for all the lovely recipes. <\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"line-height: 24px;\"><strong>ForGlorySake!<\/strong><em> -Anna<\/em><\/span><\/p>\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-large is-resized\"><img data-recalc-dims=\"1\" loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/forglorysake.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/04\/IMG_3371.jpg?resize=640%2C759&#038;ssl=1\" alt=\"\" class=\"wp-image-5069\" width=\"640\" height=\"759\"\/><figcaption>kale, edamame, apple, orange, avocado, coconut, cilantro,and flax <\/figcaption><\/figure>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Hooray!
