  • Even homemade whole-grain bread, while delicious and healthy in its way, has too many non-fiber carbs when you’re trying to minimize them. And my body is unfortunately very efficient at converting the starches to blood sugar. As for bakery whole-grain bread, (and of course the supermarket kind) the ingredients almost inevitably include “wheat flour” which is white flour, not necessarily bleached but minus the bran. This is because bread that is not only “made with 100% whole wheat” (which just means it contains SOME 100%-whole-wheat flour!) but is made with ONLY whole wheat flour (plus any other whole grains) doesn’t rise very well. I’ve struggled with it myself and made some bricks, despite being able to bake gorgeous loaves when allowed to include some unbleached bread flour in the mix. Go ahead, ask your baker. And then enjoy the bread, it’s still great for most people.












  • Easily solved:

    Make a PLAN to sleep from noon to seven. Prepare something for a ready dinner, put on jammies, (pee first) get in bed, set the alarm. This is your gift to you. You won’t be disoriented because you planned it. Get up, have dinner, enjoy your evening and go back to bed at your usual time.

    Apparently you’ve been eating substandard pizza, because really good pizza crust is a delight unto itself.

    However if you insist you only like the toppings, you have 2 choices:

    1. Find a life partner who loves crust.

    2. Just bake the toppings in/on a sheet pan and eat them directly from it, without crust.
