It would be perfect for muffins and other quick breads!! The "real" Whole Foods may have it too. Liz, I get it at the whole foods store nearby.

It's not in my grocery store. Is it at the health food stores? I have a muffin recipe I want to substitute wheat flour instead of white flour, and I don't want to mess it up. Just wondering if the pastry flour might be a better choice. So good to hear that you are ENJOYING your meals these days and feeling full. Having changed to whole foods has helped me enjoy food so much more, too. I'm discovering I love sauteed onions and eat a lot of them. Never saw that coming. I also have found new fruits and veggies I like. I love white flesh nectarines, but alas they are out of season now. I have also started enjoying plums.

Finding out what we do, how we do it, WHY we do it is interesting stuff, to me anyways. :-) Glad to hear that your extra attention is paying off; you are eating less, enjoying it more and learning about your body's needs. Definitely worth learning, I'd say! This is huge…I would think you’d be eager to share it. Finding out what we do, how we do it, WHY we do it is interesting stuff, to me anyways. :-)

I probably would eat half of what I put in my mouth if I just focused on eating than reading/blogging, etc. Good points.

I think that's why I drink more Cokes than I think I do which is a lot anyways! I have one sitting by my computer and it's just instinct to reach for it even if I'm not thirsty. Need to get a bottle of water besides here. Maybe I can turn that distraction thing into good :D We rarely eat at home, much less at the table. I need to try this more often -- oh and I need to learn how to cook too :D We'll see how that goes! Glad to hear you're getting your eating habits under control!

It's so tempting just to clean the kitchen while the kids eat breakfast even though I know how important it is to just sit with them for many reasons. I'm even guilty of doing this at lunch and dinner! This post is a good reminder. You could just send some biscuits to Kansas and I could try to sit down and eat them. :) I’m so very guilty of eating wherever is easiest.
