Green Pastures Gummy Fish

Green Pastures Gummy fish will be available this month for shipping. If you have trouble getting your little rugrat to take his Cod Liver oil, this is great news. If you havent been taking Fermented Cod Liver Oil, read more about it here. You have probably seen various gummies in the store for vitamins, Echinacea and fish oil but no one has Fermented Cod Liver Oil gummies and none have this kind of power-packed nutrition! Green Pastures Gummies will have 600mg of FCLO in each of the 45 gummies in a jar. They will be using the Cinnamon Tingle flavor, which is my son's favorite. The fish are about the size of a swedish fish. Jars will retail for $35. Our price will be $30 per tub. Contact us by hitting the email link if you want to order.

How to quick soak dried beans

Dried beans are a wonderful staple for your home, but do require some planning since they need to be soaked. One way to remedy the "I forgot to soak the beans" dilemma is to use the quick soak method. Its very simple...
Take the beans you need and wash them, removing any dirt and pebbles. For every cup of beans you are cooking, use 2 cups of cold water. So, for 3 cups of beans, cover with 6 cups of water. If the pot is so big that the beans are not completely covered, add more water. Do not salt the water, this will slow the cooking process and the beans will be tough. Cover and put on high heat, bringing them to a boil. Boil for 10 minutes, then remove from heat, leaving covered and let them set for at least 1 hour. Drain and then cook as required by the recipe. Easy-Peasy.

My favorite bread pan

I bake bread nearly every day. I have for several years now and recently when I was thinking about things to be thankful for, my bread pan came to mind. Now mind you, it was pretty far down on my thankfulness list, but it was there. Mostly because I have never had a loaf of bread stick in it. Ever. This is quite a feat which I am certain most bread bakers can attest to. Its not like I carefully grease the pan before I bake or keep it remarkably clean. I don't. I spritz it a little with olive oil from my pampered chef sprayer and I pop the dough in. When the loaf comes out. I lay the pan on its side and pull a little on the loaf. Out it comes. Even better, I get a perfect crust every time. I give the pan a quick wash and dry and away it goes until the next day. The best thing about the pan was it wasn't even expensive. The pan costs $8.50 from a wonderful company called Breadbeckers. I had two pans, but a friend liked it so much, that she bought one from me. Maybe I should start selling them...

Less sugar in more cereals

If you read my posts, you know I avoid sugar as much as possible. My youngest rugrat doesn't do well with it at all and since it reduces your immune system, I avoid it even more during cold and flu season. General Mills announced that it is going to reduce the sugar content in 4 of its most popular cereals again. They will all be reduced to single digits, which is great news! Here is their announcement:

General Mills announced this week a commitment to further reduce sugar in cereals advertised to children under 12 to single digit grams of sugar per serving. The company has already been reducing sugar in cereals while increasing key nutrients, such as calcium and vitamin D, and providing whole grain.

They are offering a special coupon for their four "newly revised" cereals: Trix, Reeses Puffs, Cinnamon Toast Crunch and Lucky Charms. Click on the CEREAL LINK

Its good for 25% off one item. If you haven't been in one of these stores before, you should check them out. In addition to an extensive selection of Christian fiction and non-fiction books, they have music, family friend videos and beautiful decor for the home. I did quite a bit of my Christmas shopping there last year and not only did I save there in the store, but they gave me some great coupons to use after the holidays.
