KCCC,
no need to scuff those feet about the cherries

I was just always so curious how they get the pits out. now I did some research on the net and they have cherry pitters although may be quite a bit of work .... hmmmmmmm... will we try cherry pie this weekend? hmmmmmm... have to think about it.
MY GOODNESS NO S DIET IS FUN!
Multigrain Cereal Plus
I get my "stuff" at local health food store, jimbos. Get quinoa and buckwheat bulk. Teff is in bags, a bit pricey but I am using small amounts so will last a while.
Last weekend got a Proctor Silex automatic rice cooker $19.99, got with 20% off coupon so really good deal at like $17 with tax. I am making for one or two so wanted a small one, also wanted to make daily rather than a batch for a week.
In the cooker I put 2 TBSP quinoa, 2 TBSP Buckwheat, 2 TBSP Teff,1 cup water, and 2 pinches of salt. It takes about 30 mintues. Had to play with water volume so it doesnt spill over.
I like the cooker cause once you get the liquid volume right you just put in the grain, salt and water, turn it on and you can walk away. It even warms it for you until you are ready to eat. PRETTY NIFTY!

then I put in soymilk, ground flax seeds (about a TBSP or less ground in small automatic coffee grinder), and fruit.
I tested my blood sugar today and it is amazingly stable throughout day. I think its my MULTIGRAIN MIX ... I am going to start eating daily, even on most S days.
KCCC let me know if you have any more questions. I also tried with barley and steel cut oats but I like the mix better without them.
Think I will make a blog entry out of this, KCCC thank you for idea.
Lola walked downstairs today. She is more her "self". It has been an emotional roller coaster, looks like things might settle down ... YAY!
Resting
my husband could easily eat cratefuls of cherries
