Text of the page (random words):
two little vegans skip to main skip to sidebar march 6 2009 food blog with no food part 2 don t worry i didn t actually go without food from february 11th until now actually i ended 72 hours after i started i had planned to go longer but a few obstacles stood in my way i ll get to those later first the details in short it wasn t much fun i felt like a zombie except not a scary zombie more like a zombie that s too lazy to get up off the couch to eat some brains because he feels completely worthless that s how tired i was the hunger really wasn t an issue by day 2 i could feed lil o food without a desire to take a bite myself really the big issue for my stopping the fast was the feeling worthless part as for other physical symptoms my urine was pretty odious also i dreaded going to sleep because i would sleep poorly then wake up super early i guess you rest so much during the day that you don t need much sleep which results in supreme boredom so all these factors convinced me to stop on the third day since i really didn t have any motivation to continue i mean i ve been eating a pretty healthy diet for about 2 years that has to help with cleansing somewhat right apparently not enough the big event of the fast was on the morning of the third day i had decided the night before to end the fast in the morning with an apple so i woke up at about 6 00 a m 2 hours earlier than normal and grabbed an apple i like eating apples in slices so i got my knife and cutting board ready gave my first meal a nice sniff then ran to the toilet to vomit up a bunch of green bile ish stuff after three or four bouts of that i turned to the sink and coughed up a bunch of mucus weird huh definitely not pleasant but i did feel better after although this does raise an interesting question i haven t been sick with a mucus producing cough in at least 2 years so how long has that mucus been there it definitely didn t arrive after i started the fast kinda gross to think about what else is stored inside my body i ve heard that your first fast is the worst and from the next one on all those stories about rejuvenation are more true i ll try it again sometime for sure but i ll wait until i feel like being a zombie again posted by m j jones at 11 12 pm 2 comments february 11 2009 food blog with no food i m 28 hours into a water only fast over the next few days i ll do my best to keep the blog updated with my progress i ve heard a few bizarre tid bits about fasting and i hope to add to those in some ways i ll be disappointed if something weird doesn t happen such as my urine turning brown i m really pushing for that one i ll definitely post about that if it happens although a picture probably won t accompany it since we mellow in this household don t want to skew the results ya know for the background info i ve never fasted in my life i may have skipped a few meals here or there but nothing intentional i m a complete novice and i m sure i didn t read up on the subject as much as i should have my initial spur for starting the fast was reading alan tillotson s one earth herbal sourcebook over christmas a truly great book my biggest issue with the book was the inadequate index but as i found last night he provides the entire book online with a search feature awesome anyways there s a tidbit in the book on detox as a spring cleaning type of activity it s not much but you can read it about it here just scroll down to the part on detoxification first i followed his advice and ate only fresh fruit 2 apples a pear 1 1 2 bananas and 1 2 an orange for dinner my breakfast was a homemade granola bar a super secret recipe from the covert cupboard subscription bakery we re opening in kirksville mo a slice of mexican pizza with refried beans enchilada sauce from veganomicon corn onions and peppers and a few apples throughout the day so far the insights are my first night was the most difficult i instinctively wanted to snack although i m not really a big eater i mean i love food but i m 5 3 and only weigh 105 lbs my wife and i split a meal at a restaurant then still bring home leftovers this morning i was hungry but not excruciatingly so it was pretty identical to just feeling hungry that feeling lasted all day but has subsided for the evening it s being replaced by a sensation of emptiness in my stomach almost like it s sinking in on a grosser note i took a laxative last night and tonight in the hopes of clearing out my colon moving on get it also i haven t had a desire to eat a big meal or stuff myself moreso is the desire to eat an apple or granola bar or chips and salsa just a snack my body feels kinda hungry so i think i should eat something then i think oh yeah i m fasting whoops in short the most difficult part isn t the hunger but breaking the habit of eating finally the only physical ailment i ve felt is getting light headed when i stand up this has only started happening in the last few hours about 24 hours into the fast i ve read it goes away after the first day or two and i sincerely hope that it s true it s just blasted inconvenient to feel as though you ll faint anytime you want to go somewhere here s to hoping

round loaves 2 oval loaves from poolish all recipes from bread a baker s book of techniques and recipes by jeffrey hamelman an incredible book to say the least posted by m j jones at 4 52 pm 12 comments labels baguette bread hamelman july 28 2008 long john doughnuts while we were visiting my parents back in illinois we had two full days of cooking and baking in all we handmade cinnamon raisin bagels fajitas with flour tortillas two round loaves of french bread 30ish cinnamon rolls oatmeal raisin cookies grilled pizza zucchini brownies with chocolate mousse and black raspberry topping and finally these long johns looking back at that list even sounds ridiculous to me but i swear we did it the doughnuts were nice and fried not oily on the outside but stayed sweet and doughy on the inside a nice combo but at times seemed undercooked depends on your preference i guess but we loved em within 24 hours four people consumed all 17ish doughnuts i had never deep fried anything in a ridiculous amount of oil and it was a lot easier than i expected as well as took way more oil than i expected in all we used two 48 fl oz jugs of canola oil that amounted to 2 1 2 inches in the huge pot also these take a little chunk of time to make there s a 2 hour refrigeration time and the deep frying keeps you on your toes for at least 20 minutes but it s quite worth it as the picture below proves long john doughnuts 4 c flour 4 t baking powder 3 4 t salt 1 t whole flax seed ground or 2 1 2 t pre ground flaxseed 3 t soymilk 1 4 c apple sauce 1 4 t baking powder 2 t maple syrup 3 4 c sugar 1 2 c soymilk 5 t vegan butter melted chocolate glaze 1 4 c soymilk 1 1 2 c confectioner s sugar 3 5 oz semi sweet baking chocolate or chocolate chips melted directions mix the flour 4 t of baking powder and salt in a medium bowl in a large bowl cream together the ground flaxseed and 3 t of soymilk after it s nice and goopy add in the apple sauce and remaining 1 4 t of baking powder and mix well when it s all combined pour in the sugar and maple syrup and cream it cream it real nice for the finale mix the soymilk and melted butter into the sugary mix when all that s finished slide the flour mixture on over to the sugar bowl and mix until it first becomes a homogeneous mass kinda like pancakes but way thicker no need to overmix it ll still be gooey by no means a typical bread dough mixing is all done so put a dishtowel over the top of the bowl and seal it with a large rubber band or hair tie put the bowl in the fridge for two hours and kick back on the sofa maybe watch some cartoons whatever now that you re good and relaxed it s time to get serious flour your work surface and place a floured sheet of wax or parchment paper to the side be light when handling the dough so it doesn t get overworked if you need to imagine your hands belong the the gentlest masseuse this world has ever known now divide your dough in half and roll out one of the halves on your floured surface to between 1 4 and 1 2 inch thickness in a long flat rectangle about 4 inches wide when it s rolled out evenly cut away the edges of the top and bottom so you have a flat edge and place the scraps to the side this can be uneven so the final cuts will look like a cityscape of sorts now make the individual long johns however wide you d like mine were about 1 1 2 inches wide i think gently lift each piece up and place it on the floured paper you can slide a spatula underneath to transfer too repeat this process with the other half of dough and then put your scraps all together and roll them out and cut whatever scraps result from this final rolling turn into donut holes by rolling on the floured surface or in your hands or if you d prefer just take all the scraps and make em into donut holes time to move to the stove let the cut doughnuts rest and heat up 2 inches or more of oil in a high walled pan or pot the oil needs to be at 375ish i played around with temperatures from 360 to 380 and it didn t seem to make a big difference have some metal tongs or metal slotted spatula nearby for fishing out the doughnuts after cooking as well as a layout of paper towels or dishtowels for absorbing excess oil off the edge after the oil is hot lift the donuts one or two at a time with a slotted metal spatula and slide them into the hot oil after 15 45 seconds they ll plum up and rise to the top after they ve risen turn them and cook for another 20ish and place onto a paper towel goodness you ve done a lot of work but we re not quite finished mix all the ingredients of the frosting together and when the donuts have mostly cooled drizzle or spread the glaze over the top of the doughnuts if drizzling you can probably halve the recipe eat leftover chocolate with a spatula or spoon share posted by m j jones at 2 10 pm 7 comments labels chocolate dessert donut doughnut long johns july 24 2008 granola yup it s just granola no frills here sorry if you wanted one of those snappy titles like old skool granola or cinnamon nutmeg almond granola which would still be fitting but that doesn t mean this granola isn t incredible this is the kind of granola that starts wars over the last bowl the granola that spain would set sail over vast oceans for the granola that sesame street would create a new character the granola monster for granola 1 4 c vegan butter melted 1 1 2 c rolled oats 1 2 t cinnamon 1 4 c almond slices 2 t agave nectar 1 4 t nutmeg pre heat the oven to 250 and combine all the ingredients until everything is evenly distributed spread the mixture in a thin layer over a walled cookie shee t and bake for about an hour stirring halfway through the bake so 30 minutes stir another 3o ish minutes let it cool completely before storing in a closed container congrats you ve made the perfect breakfast cereal posted by m j jones at 7 51 pm 3 comments labels agave nectar almond cereal cinnamon granola nutmeg oats july 11 2008 grilled cookie best idea ever grilled cookie fire up the grill make up your favorite cookie dough put a lightly oiled cast iron skillet on the grill to heat up for a few minutes then pat down the dough it ll be patchy at first but as it heats up the top will smooth out a bit cover the grill and let it go it s generally done when the sides are a deep golden brown the texture is a bit like a cookie bar with a thick bottom crust so far we ve made your general chocolate chip cookie and a peanut butter banana chocolate chip cookie both obviously were incredible posted by m j jones at 3 12 pm
