For the vanilla gluten-free cupcakes, the flour mixture has tapioca flour, white rice flour, quinoa flour, and a choice of either corn flour or almond flour. The chocolate ones have just the first three flours.

Off-topic discussion. Wanna talk about corsets, duct tape, or physics? This is the place. Detailed discussion of any current-season TV must be whitefonted.
Hugo's does rule!!
I think we're going their for mom's day. Diet be damned!
I'm pretty sure my Whole Foods has quinoa. What I'd really like to find is t'eff, which would give me a shot at trying to make injera at home.
Online teff shopping: [link] . I've also often seen it sold in Ethiopian restaurants.
tommyrot: the NYT weighs in on Steampunk.
I've seen teff at Whole Foods. I've also seen whole quinoa there, but never quinoa flour, though I can't really say I've been looking. For a while, the Watergate Safeway was carrying teff, but I haven't seen it there lately.
Sigh. I miss Hugo's. And I also loved a place called the Upstage Cafe on Wilshire that has long been replaced by a Denny's. It was in the Wiltern and had splendid ometettes.
Any LA-istas remember a place on Melrose in the 80's called "Gasoline Alley"? My gawd I spent more nights at that place...and I was so broke. Their little tiny mochas were $2.75 which is a fortune, but they were so good. And Sharon (the owner) was awesome.
I miss LA a lot sometimes. Can't believe I haven't been back in almost 2 years.
Okay, steampunk does not cover Mad Max-style post-apocalyptic style. I will grant the possibility of post-apocalyptic timing, but it's still a Victorian/Edwardian feel. Not mid-late 20th century.
Nifty that they have all them black folk steampunking it up.
It is that rarity, a phenomenon with the potential to capture a wider audience, offering a genteel and disciplined alternative to both the slack look of hip-hop and the menacing spirit of goth.
Jilli is "menacing"?
Theo - I have some T'eff. I got it at a local Health Food Store - It's Bob's brand. I had zero luck doing injera with it the one time I tried. But I have a different recipe to try out, so I hold hope.
