I ran a super-stressful but informal training this morning, met with my boss’s boss’s boss’s assistant over a transition in upper management that will mean that I have an upcoming project that will mean a very large amount of work that will need to be completed in a very short amount of time, was given some deadlines on stuff which always stresses me out, and then had a post-mortem with IT on a recent project that’s now complete.  I feel like I’m done for the day.  I’d like to just sit here and read at my desk for the rest of the day, if that’s all right with everyone.

 

Almost all of the men mentioned in “Piano Man” are referred to by name but the one woman is just “the waitress”

#how does one become a real estate novelist

That’s actually a really good question I never considered.

It’s evidently demanding enough that you never have time for a wife.

And I’m pretty sure the Navy has a mandatory retirement age.

And why does the microphone smell like a beer? Does Billy Joel sing like the people of Pawnee drink from water fountains?

Yes, BUT she practices politics while the businessmen are getting stoned because they’re lonely.  I still say it’s a win for her.

Can I get a 16 year old white girl to put aluminum foil and some toilet bowl cleaner in a bottle please at their school?  It’s for science.  I’d like to observe the reactions of the adults at your school.

 

I think that Oregonians think that if they walk around in shorts and tank tops they can somehow will it into being warmer than the 57 it actually is.

QUINOA FLOUR IS YOUR FRIEND
Do you heat-process yours?

 

blech, garbanzo bean flower? Ugh, no thanks.
Each main GF mix provider uses their own basic blend as a base for all their mixes.  Bob’s Red Mill uses garbanzo bean flour, which is a thick, dense, and hearty flour, but I don’t like the grainyness and aftertaste it gives baked goods. 
Betty Crocker uses a rice flour blend.  Arrowhead Mills a rice flour, potato starch, sorghum blend.  Hodgeson Mill uses millet, sorghum, and rice.  So on and so forth.  I find a lot of commercial boxed mixes tend to skimp on the starches which makes their baked goods too dense.  You get to favor one blend over another. 
Currently, for baking, I tend to favor the taste and texture of blends that use primarily sweet rice flour, sorghum, and almond flour.  Tracy has worked miracles with sweet rice flour and I wish more GF bakers used it.  It’s incredible. 
Starches are pretty interchangeable, but the main ones are tapioca, potato, and corn.  She’s also tried corn flour a few times (it’s finer than meal) and that’s gone really well, although corn flour seems to be much more popular in European GF baking.
For cooking, brown rice flour holds up much better, and cornstarch seems to be the most forgiving.  I’ve noticed a lot of GF recipes (I used a regular recipe I adapted last night) get around the roux issue by simply having you thicken your milk and broth combination with cornstarch towards the end of your cooking.

 

I’ve really struggled with making roux since going gluten free.  I’ve read on a few sites here and there suggestions, but none of them were ever quite right.

Last night I used 3T Bob’s Redmill All Purpose GF Flour and 3T of cornstarch and it went swimmingly.  It was naturally more cornstarch-y when finished than I would’ve liked, but hey, sacrifices must be made when you’re trying to make something without 1 of the 2 key ingredients. 

Btw, I hate the Bob’s Redmill mixes, garbanzo bean flour just ain’t my thing, although I do tolerate their cornbread.  I keep a package of their all purpose GF flour on hand for use as a thickener instead of having to go hunting for flours to make my own blend.

 

You know, I’m like, “meh, whatever” when I get smoked by the hipsters on their single-gears during my morning commute.  But it’s just insulting when the old dude does it. 

 

You know you work on a college campus when there are a two groups of people outside your window shouting at each other and shooting each other with nerf guns.

Despite The Vanilla Incident earlier, I think my gluten free biscuits came out looking quite beautiful.

I NEED one, now.

I had this brilliant idea to modify men’s shirts into a woman’s cut.  Like superhero shirts and graphic shirts from Target that we all wish came in women’s sizes.  Then I’d sell them on Etsy.

Someone else has probably already thought of this and capitalized on it.  But hey, good idea y/y?
