Grind your 2 cups of wheatberries (or other grains) in the Dry Grinder until flour cakes and lifts and forms a crater in the middle. This should take about one minute.<br /><br />Pour the water-yeast-honey brew carefully in the "crater", cover the pitcher, and pulse on high once and let stand for one minute. After that, pulse twice and scrape sides about 5 times and forms a ball of dough just off the blades.<br /><br />Put the dough in your breadpan and let rise.. then bake on 350 deg for approximately 40minutes.Lonnie Myronhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/15561801132694437201noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-529857668606907956.post-40412859747317657842008-01-09T10:15:00.000-08:002008-01-09T10:15:00.000-08:00Oh my goodness!

Looking back I'd had symptoms since Aug. 2000, but in January 01 I had double vision. It took them a week to finally diagnose me with a spinal tap. Not fun! I was on meds for 3 or 4 years and finally came off. I still have a ringing in my ear, but that's all. I worry about it coming back from time to time. That's one of the big reasons I want to lose weight and get healthy.VaQueenBeehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/17082051043155848057noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-529857668606907956.post-7915729811676616712007-12-11T20:31:00.000-08:002007-12-11T20:31:00.000-08:00Did I give you the formula for date shakes?

(1:3 ratio of almonds to water) Throw in some pitted dates and frozen bananas and make a shake. Very yummy!Deborahhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/05339873778625811767noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-529857668606907956.post-41686745603892262572007-12-02T14:28:00.000-08:002007-12-02T14:28:00.000-08:00Hey Theresa, sorry it took me a while to read this...Hey Theresa, sorry it took me a while to read this and post. The issue with poisoning concerns is related to fat-soluble vitamins. Too many of them your body can't flush like water-soluble vitamins (like Viatmin C). My hubby works at a Co-op where he has seen a good number of unnaturally orange people. Some people take the stuff for a fake tan. But you can overdose on vitamins and the fat-soluble variety are the ones to be really careful of. Like Beta-Carotene. Ever read Dr. Weil? I'm not an expert but my grandfather was--Dr. George K. Davis-he hammered the vitamin overdose thing into my head-Be Careful of all Vitamins and Their Amounts. Some of the people we know weren't aware they were orange-y as the shift in their skin tone was gradual.<BR/>Kind of freaky. Carrot people.Charlottehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/14619641242164429081noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-529857668606907956.post-1579383161771108082007-11-28T10:35:00.000-08:002007-11-28T10:35:00.000-08:00My mom has a Vita-Mix.

I think she uses a hand full of cabbage, 2 carrots and 1 celery rib and then fills the rest of the blender up with fruit and ice. She also adds some flaxseed oil or other healthy fat, sometimes. I've heard that a little beet can add sweetness and pretty coloring, too, but she hates beets and won't try it! :)Daniellehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/09535096515501962077noreply@blogger.com
