The feeling you get when your brain finally lets your heart get in its pants.

Me either, Sue, but I was hoping anyway, since I thought he and Meredith might be fun together.

Well not canonically, no, but this is transformative fiction.

vw, it's a modification of a recipe that came with my Kitchenaid--replace a cup of the flour with whole wheat, and the oil with peanut oil. It's much better. Gives it a taste, without overwhelming the topping.

Listening to the first podcast-- I forgot that Kate Walsh (Addison Sheppard) had been in Under the Tuscan Sun with Sandra Oh, even though I've seen it.

Sometimes I trip on how happy we could be.

However, I will set a weekend goal of making some wholewheat pizza dough with peanut oil. It's nummy.

Ah, now that's a thought, especially given that the boy has been warned off the white food, and I wouldn't make a whole pizza just for me. Which is slightly odd, as I have no problem buying a whole pizza (or more!) just for me. Huh.

How white is white? (Oh, and why?) I've never made wholewheat anything with just wholewheat flour--up to half and half, because it's much heavier. So I was wondering what the tipping point would be.

Yeah, I don't know how white is white. It's because he's diabetic and trying to control it with diet, so I assume it's a carb issue, but really, is regular whole wheat bread that much less carb-y than white bread? Not sure.

OK, found a carb counter online, and it looks like a marginal difference if any. [link] Of course, I am neither his doctor nor his mother, so.

Which is good--think of the ethical issues.

That link reminded me I need to make oatmeal bread again too. Maybe not this week, though.

"I can't operate -- that's my son!"

How is this possible?
