Looks like my site is broken…No matter which thing I click on I come back to the home page. Guess it is time to upgrade Wordpress…Been putting it off while doing other things. Perhaps later today or on Monday.

Here is a little better variant on our Pancakes. 2/3 cup Buckwheat flour Put griddle / non-stick pan on burner and turn on Med to Med Hi. Mix dry ingredients with Wisk. Mix liquids: oil, applesauce/Banana, honey, Darifree “Buttermilk”. Pour liquid into the dry and mix thoroughly with wisk until everything is mixed well. The soda and baking powder will start working before done mixing. Pour by 1/3 to 1/4 cup on the griddle. (If the pancakes look too thick add a little more water to the batter in the bowl and mix.) Flip when edges are dry or start to lift off pan. (Adjust heat to get the golden color just right on subsequent pancakes.) Top with pure Maple Syrup or Nuttelex and powdered/icing/castor sugar and enjoy. Variation / Substitutes / Possible Changes that have been tested.
In all of the tragedy surrounding the fires here in Victoria, we have had a small chance to help. Crystal and Karlissa two days ago went to church to help at a memorial service for a mother and her sons. But I just learned of a story from the fires that was quite incredible. I thought I would share it with you. I just saw this article today. In the article it talked about a son hiring a helicopter and sending it to pick up his parents. The son was using Google Earth on his PC to pass the cooridinates to the pilot as the clearing was obscured by smoke. Incredible story. Wow. We love this recipe from Taste of Home magazine. Just substitute Gluten Free Self Rising Flour for the flour (we used Orgran) and prepared Darifree for the milk and it tastes great. Time for a Dairy Free, Casein Free, Soy Free Buttermilk recipe. (Also known as Dairy Free Sour Milk) 1 Cup prepared Vance’s Darifree minus 1 T Add Oil to measuring cup. Add Darifree to 1 cup line. Add the Xantham Gum and Vinegar/Lemon Juice. Wisk/Mix and let sit for 5 minutes then use. (OK Don’t know if the sitting is required but that is what you do for normal milk turned to Sour Milk with vinegar or lemon juice.) Use in recipes calling for Buttermilk or Sour Milk. Ever since we moved to Australia and bought a mini-van (people mover as they call it here) our interier dome light didn’t work when we opened the doors. So when we would pull up and park and open the doors, the van remained dark. If we got in the car at night it would be dark. We could push a button and get light, but it wasn’t quite the same. On Tuesday this week that has changed. The light was fixed as it was under warranty. Now when we open the doors, light instantly bathes the front seats and there is enough residual to illuminate the rear for the kids as well. Also when the back hatch is put up a light now comes on back there too. (unrelated but similar fix) Being able to open the door and get light right away is amazing. After experiencing the light, I wondered how we ever tolerated the darkness. The same goes for our Spiritual lives. So many (up to 97% of Australians by some estimates) are living in the dark spiritually. Jesus IS the light. And His light is available to be shined on any life. Why someone would choose the dark when the light is available, still baffles me, but the truth is that they have never seen the light. So many times we as Christians obscure the light in our lives. We just need to live and let the light shine. As we shine the light then others around us may notice they are in the dark and will want some of the light too. It may not seem like the right thing at first as there are a bunch of things we like to do in the dark which we don’t want others to know about. But again, unless the light shines there is never true healing. Jesus said: “I have come as a light into the world, so that everyone who believes in me should not remain in darkness.” John 12:46 (NET Bible) May the lights at Christmas remind you of the Light that came into this world. I am so excited. I made the best homemade ice cream ever as far as consistency and fairly good for taste. It was Dairy Free, Soy Free, Wheat/Gluten Free and Egg Free. This was actually a better consistency then all of the regular homemade ice cream I have made before and I have made well over 400 litres / 100 gallons in my life I would guess. I will post the recipe soon. I have to experiment just 1-2 more times before posting it. Yes, we voted in the USA elections and sent our Abseentee ballots back to FL. Whether they will ever be opened and counted I have no idea. They only open them if a race is close enough to warrant opening the ballots. Basically if the race is won by 2000 votes and there were only 1000 Absentee ballots then there is no need to open the Absentee ballots. If the candidate is leading by 1000 votes and there are 2000 Absentee ballots they will open as many Absentee ballots until the outcome is decided. Therefore my ballot will only be opened if it is a very close race. Wow, here is a theory with some potentially huge implications for Evolutionary Theory. Why, it impacts our perceived age of the universe. If the universe were to be proved less old than the current thinking about the age of the Earth, that would require a rethink. Basically a new theory has emerged to explain the oddities of needing Dark Matter and stuff. It is that the Earth (whole Solar system) sits in a “cosmic bubble” of less material. This would act like a lense and altering the perceived distance of things. Here is the article from Fox News. The yet to be fully peer-reviewed theory will be published later this month. Link: http://www.foxnews.com/story/0,2933,430943,00.html YEAH we had Pancakes yesterday and they were not only edible but they were good too! Here is the recipe that I used. I will likely tweak a little more as I play with it some more, but it is very similar to our earlier recipe from the USA, but it was the scratch mix of individual flours instead of using any Australian GF Flour blend. Note this makes twice the normal Pancakes of our previous recipe. We did put the Chocolate Chips in most of what we made. The pancakes are on the thin side, but the inside was not wet as in my previous attempts. Needless to say there were NONE left over. 2/3 cup Buckwheat flour Put griddle / non-stick pan on burner and turn on Med to Med Hi. Mix dry ingredients with Wisk. Mix liquids: water, oil, applesauce, honey, Rice Milk. Pour liquid into the dry and mix thoroughly with wisk until everything is mixed well. The soda and baking powder will start working before done mixing. Pour by 1/3 to 1/4 cup on the griddle. Flip when edges are dry or start to lift off pan. Top with pure Maple Syrup or Nuttelex and powdered/icing/castor sugar and enjoy. Variation / Substitutes / Possible Changes that have been tested.
