Yes, I really like Mark Sisson's Primal Blueprint! And Elana's Pantry does have great recipes. I like Wellness Mama recipes too. They match our tastes well and tend to turn out nicely:) <br /><br />Blessings on your family these last few days of Advent!!! And happy cooking and baking!

I don't understand the stress of white rice, maybe because one author is Asian? I haven't found so much new information in it, I saw that Mark Sisson wrote the introduction. Do you know him and his blog? His blog (Primal Blueprint) is quite interesting. For grain-free I love to use Elena's Pantry recipes, but I would be happy to receive some new ones. Thanks for offering.

And, in general, we are not eating as many starches as they allow. There is excellent research on the health benefits of it for various different issues. It is very interesting. Are you interested in any easy grain free treat and cookie recipes? I can send some your way if so...Deacon Patrickhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/01826386402925060912noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-287923374500556606.post-59830582437267575052013-12-16T09:38:15.739-05:002013-12-16T09:38:15.739-05:00These photos are so beautiful and inspiring.

Das freut mich aber, daß diese Bilder guten Anklang finden. <br /><br />Ach je, der Arme!! So viele Sorgen auf einmal. Nierensteine müssen schlimm sein, mein Onkel hatte mal einen und auch Peters Pfarrer. Dem haben sie gesagt, er dürfe keinen Kaffee mehr trinken, weil Kaffee Nierensteine nur schlimmer machen würde! Inzwischen kann man Nierensteine doch auch zertrümmern und muß nicht mehr operieren. So wird das hier gemacht. Ich hoffe, daß alles gimpflich abläuft. Wir werden Deinen Mann in unsere Weihnachtsnovena, die morgen beginnt, mit aufnehmen. <br /><br />Übrigens ist ein Päckchen von Dir angekommen, ich nehme an für Weihnachten? Wir haben leider noch gar nichts auf den Weg gebracht. Dieses Jahr werden unsere Grüße und Gaben wohl Neujahrsgrüße und- gaben werden. <br /><br />Eine dicke Umarmung an alle!

Und natürlich auch all die anderen Luciakinder, auch mit dem Lied auf Schwedisch!<br />Die Reportage hat mir auch sehr gut gefallen, sehr stimmungsvoll und sprachenreich! Hier in unserer Gegend feiern wir allerdings nicht an Heiligabend sondern am 25. Aber wie es in der Reportage gesagt wurde, stimmt auch, einfach eher in der Ostschweiz.CCETSIhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/15585626744661236247noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-287923374500556606.post-57617692073980741042013-12-15T11:52:25.970-05:002013-12-15T11:52:25.970-05:00Auf diese Bilder habe ich mich schon gefreut hier ...Auf diese Bilder habe ich mich schon gefreut hier auf dem Blog: alle Jahre wieder... Diesmal scheint die Stimmung wirklich ganz besonders gewesen zu sein. Flora sieht wie ein Engelchen aus!<br /><br />Wir haben leider ein ziemlich turbulentes und unweihnachtliches Wochenende hinter uns (und wohl noch eine anstrengende Woche vor uns) - mein Mann hatte plötzlich sehr schmerzhafte Nierenkoliken, musste rasch ins Krankenhaus zur Erstversorgung, kam dann wieder nach Hause und muss in den nächsten Tagen noch weitere Untersuchungen im Krankenhaus machen. Am Anfang waren wir sehr besorgt, bis zum Glück feststand, dass es sich "nur" um einen wandernden Nierenstein handelt. Wir hatten ja bisher mit solchen Dingen keine Erfahrung. Nun hoffen wir, dass alles möglichst schmerzfrei weiter- und gut zu Ende geht, vor allem dass es keinen chirurgischen Eingriff braucht. Inzwischen wirken auf jeden Fall die Schmerzmittel und das ist auch schon eine große Erleichterung.<br />Auf diesen großen Schrecken hinauf hat es mir umso mehr gut getan, diese stimmungsvollen Bilder anzusehen!Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-287923374500556606.post-7936056123293884592013-12-15T01:48:15.067-05:002013-12-15T01:48:15.067-05:00Eva,
