Experiment #3: I used 1 cup einkorn all purpose flour, and 2 cups einkorn whole grain wheat, my home canned applesauce (no other oil/butter), and my homemade yogurt. The only difference I notice, is when my bananas are a bit too ripe. Then the bread is super moist. Overall, delicious and easy grab-n-go breakfast/snack for the family. I think I'll add 1/2 cup more blueberries next time.

Hair Tonic
I have made apple cider vinegar hair rinses in the past, but this is my first time making a "hair tonic" for hair repair and growth.
There are many recipes online, but I used nettle and peppermint essential oil to make mine.

Organic Miso ~ Chickpea Burgers
Miso is a new food to try this year. I just happened to be watching the "Chew" one day (I think I was feeling poorly that day otherwise the TV would never be on). Anyway, they had a guest on making chickpea burgers that used a miso in the sauce. I was intrigued.
I set out to find miso in our stores. With no luck, sent an email to my sister-in-law and brother. I got some tips, and placed my order.

More Checked Off
It's been a "get-r-done" week for me, which feels good.
The weather went from warm to cold. Even so, I let my ladies out and gave their coops a clean sweep. Egg production is still a bit low, but as they get more sunshine I hope to see an increase.

Book ~ Herbal Teas
There have been so many people asking me for tips on teas for bronchitis, coughing, and pneumonia lately. By accident, I found this book (published in 2016).
I just started reading through this book (like I have the time, ha ha!). I borrowed it from the library. There are tea recipes for antispasmodic bronchitis, cough, and more. It's worth a look for those who make teas, tinctures, syrups etc. I learned plantain can be used as an expectorant.
