the adventures of a girl with yarn and crps


I ordered a few books from my wishlist.

Waking by Matthew Sanford - This is a memoir style narrative that details the author's tragic auto accident that took his father and his sister's lives and left him paparlyzed from the waist down. Mr. Sanford relates his experiences and the yoga practice he developed. I am anxious to get started. If he can survive his physical limitations and tragedies, then maybe there is hope.

Gluten-Free Recipes Conscious Cook by Leslie Cerier - One of my doctors is encouraging me to go gluten-free. even though I eat a lot of other grains than wheat, it has been challenging to remove all of the whear from my diet. This is a nice little book for gluten-free vegetarian cooking with simple recipes to increase the amount of non-wheat grai s into one's diet. Ms. Cerier promotes organic living, but makes no mention of GMOs, especially in the corn section. She also says that food grown underground, like potatoes, do not need to be organic. I disagree. Food grown closer to the ground, food that lays on the ground while growing, or food grown just below the ground should be organic because they are more likely to sit in or near where the pesticides etc fall. Why would one want peanuts or raspberries grown in a puddle of pesticides?

Gluten-Free- Gourmet Bakes Bread Wheat-Free by Bette Hagman - Who doesn't like bread? My husband wanted a bread maker one year because he has to have bread all day everyday. He is pretty good at making a crunchy outside, smooshy inside Italian style loaf. But.....it's not gluten-free.This enormous book includes instructions for both oven baked and bread machine baked gluten-free bread. Two birds...

The Book of Kale by Sharon Hanna - Who doesn't love kale? Ok, so a lot of people don't love kale. Again, that same doctor wants me to eat more kale. Fortunately, I love kale. This book has tons of recipes (surprise! most are gluten-free), pictures, and instructions to grow your own kale!

You're so intuitive, it's like you have a sixth, seventh, and eighth sense. You connect with others freely and easily - and you tend to have many best friends. Warm and caring, it's hard for you to close your heart to anyone. Affection is like air for you - you need to give and receive it to survive.
