So I weighed in this morning and I'm down .2 pounds. This is a far cry from my anticipated 4 pounds. Photo will be coming tonight.
So, my friend gave me an amish friendship bread starter bag of dough (fermented goo actually), and thought my family would enjoy the 10 day process of growing the amish goodness. For more info on this phenomenon, check this out. http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Amish_Friendship_Bread She was right. We did enjoy the whole process. It was fun coming home deciding who would squoosh the bag, and who would pour in the sugar. It was so cute and fun and amishy thinking, 'we're waiting 10 days to bake a couple loaves of bread'. This doesn't happen nowadays. We open the box- add the egg, oil, and water, and you have an instant cake or something. We added chocolate chips to our friendship bread- yum. Having poured so much of myself into this bread, I simply had to try it on Saturday. I had quite a few flex points left, so I happily ate some. OMG...it was so good!!! Now keep in mind that I have not eaten anything resembling chocolate chips, cake, or crumbly cinammony goodness for over two weeks. How could I have forgotten that chocolate is a trigger food for me? I'm sure I ate more than my flex points worth of Amish f#$%'n Friendship Bread.
