But I have many others :)Reneehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/04163112177764869671noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-564090935768344835.post-83407432213884994062011-10-21T19:30:29.829-07:002011-10-21T19:30:29.829-07:00I love this idea!

In the last challenge I stopped drinking diet soda and haven't looked back. Looking forward to removing the "white" now! Thank you for starting off slow and teaching us how to do it. In fact, I'd love to see a challenge like that... take all the crap we eat and every week replace one item with something healthy so that it becomes a life style... pop to water, white flour to wheat, sugars, high fructose corn syrup, etc!Amyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/03731055721020016952noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-564090935768344835.post-19150393344753946312011-10-19T16:01:58.281-07:002011-10-19T16:01:58.281-07:00Maybe you already covered this in the last challen...Maybe you already covered this in the last challenge (sorry I was missing!), but another fun tid-bit to know is that spring white wheat makes a lighter flour than hard red wheat. So if you're baking primarily with wheat, look for the bag of White Wheat (Bob's Red Mill sells it, so does Trader Joe's and it's much cheaper). Or you can just buy the spring white wheat and grind it up. I use both, but need more yeast for the red wheat to rise (or baking powder for pancakes). I can share my whole wheat recipes if anyone needs some tried and true ones.Reneehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/04163112177764869671noreply@blogger.com
