The cutest cuteness in all the cutenesses. He's got two diplomas under his belt, and he's only 8 months old. He's also a scientist, he studies the mechanics of kennel doors. His current portfolio includes knowing all his paws by numbers, crawl, spin/twist, roll-over in both directions, target, fetch, ... http://urbanmisfit.net/2010/04/12/the-last-two-months/ I just finished a course on Monday, and as a gift to myself I'm taking the month of February off of school. I took two courses between September and now. With moving, and working, house-keeping, and puppy-rearing it's been... well... a crappy sort of existence. So, February is/was going to ... http://urbanmisfit.net/2010/01/31/no-guarantees/ Wow. Well. I just renewed my webhosting for another two years, so I'd better make it worth while this time. 2009  has been the best. 2008 was shitty. I think 2010 will be a slap in the face. Here's to the odd numbered years. In the past year I've - learned how to cook ... http://urbanmisfit.net/2009/12/31/a-year-in-review/ The only difference between these two attempts was that I separated the eggs and beat the egg whites in one, and didn't in the other.

Recipe: Gluten Free Coconut Flour Waffles 2 tbsp coconut oil 3 eggs 1/4 c brown sugar 1 tsp vanilla 2 ... http://urbanmisfit.net/2009/09/13/coconut-flour-waffle-attempt-2-and-3-success/ OK! I have about a million things I want to blog about in the next week and a half covering my travels over the last... 4 or 5 months. First, CAKE! Gluten free cake made out of coconut flour. I downloaded the recipe in a pdf from Picadilly books, but I ... http://urbanmisfit.net/2009/08/20/chocolate-we-can-all-get-behind/ This is an original recipe... meaning I didn't google anything to see why this might not have worked out before I tried it. Ingredients: 2 tbsp butter 3 eggs, separated 1/4 cup honey 1 tsp vanilla 1/4 tsp salt 1/4 tsp baking powder 3 tbsp coconut flour What I did: I melted the butter ... http://urbanmisfit.net/2009/08/15/failed-coconut-flour-waffle-attempt-1/ Life has been slow lately. The opposite of normal. Instead of having no time to blog, I have nothing to say. A few weeks ago we travelled (my) home to attend my little brother's wedding. It was nice to see him happily growing up. I hope he and his new bride ... http://urbanmisfit.net/2009/07/30/on-travels-and-cooking-for-a-wheatard/ Girl friend... Grass fed... French Guiana... Go figure... Gluten free. Yup. Not me, but is the new way of the kitchen. I now have the challenge of trying to prepare meals with food sensitivites.
