<br />
My mom looked up a recipe online and we decided to try it. I also wanted to try to make chicken strips from my book <a href="http://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B00F3KVY2U/ref=as_li_tl?ie=UTF8&camp=1789&creative=390957&creativeASIN=B00F3KVY2U&linkCode=as2&tag=frolicnutrim-20&linkId=MJ5E6EABKQWWQFLO">Make-Ahead Paleo: Healthy Gluten-, Grain- & Dairy-Free Recipes Ready When & Where You Are</a><img alt="" border="0" src="http://ir-na.amazon-adsystem.com/e/ir?t=frolicnutrim-20&l=as2&o=1&a=B00F3KVY2U" height="1" style="border: none !important; margin: 0px !important;" width="1" />.<br />
<br />
We got all the ingredients from the store and read over recipes so we knew exactly what to do.<br />
<br />
We started the pasta first in the food processor. It was very gooey, so we added more flour. We kept adding more flour until it looked like dough.<br />

We had to make three pans of ingredients to dip the chicken in- flour, eggs, flour. I really liked the dipping part, but it was really sticky because of the egg. And the flour, and the other flour, and I got it all over my hands and then I had chicken fingers! </div>

Well, we had to go grocery shopping to get all of the ingredients. I wanted to set them all up and take a picture like people do on Pinterest. We had to buy a lot of stuff for these cookies!<br />

<div>
Once upon a time, my mom made carrot muffins. Then on the weekend she started making pancakes that Angelena can have, which she uses flax seed instead of eggs, which is gross. </div>
<div>
<br /></div>
<div>
Then I said "Mommy mommy! Can we use the same ingredients we used for the muffins to make the pancakes?" </div>
<div>
<br /></div>
<div>
Mom said "Use the carrot instead of flax seed for the eggs?" </div>
<div>
<br /></div>
<div>
I replied "yes! and some cinnamon!" </div>
<div>
<br /></div>
<div>
And so we did. </div>
<div>
<br /></div>
<div>
First, we had to cook the carrots and blend them in the <a href="http://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B00939I7EK/ref=as_li_ss_tl?ie=UTF8&camp=1789&creative=390957&creativeASIN=B00939I7EK&linkCode=as2&tag=frolicnutrim-20">Ninja Mega Kitchen System (BL770)</a><img src="http://ir-na.amazon-adsystem.com/e/ir?t=frolicnutrim-20&l=as2&o=1&a=B00939I7EK" width="1" height="1" border="0" alt="" style="border:none !important; margin:0px !important;" />

<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">
We had to blend it really well until it became soft. Then added 1/2 cup of carrot to the pancake batter. </div>

<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
And I sprinkled some cinnamon in it. </div>

<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
And then I made pancakes for my whole family! </div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">

<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">
So we didn't have any syrup or sugar or jam or peanut butter in the house so my mom invented a carrot sauce to put on the pancakes with the leftover carrot puree. She poured in the rest of the molasses and it made this cool design. </div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">

<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
So basically it was the leftover carrot puree, the rest of the molasses in the jar and some water and she cooked it. </div>

It was so good! My ideas always work! I even liked the carrot sauce too. We sprinkled more cinnamon on them and they were delicious! </div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">

<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
Here is the recipe:</div>

<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">
<br /></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">
1/2 cup of carrot puree instead of eggs. (to use flax, mom grinds up flax seeds in the coffee grinder: two tablespoons of ground flax seeds and 6 tablespoons of water, let it set up). </div>

<br /></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">

One of the first things was a tour and cooking demonstration at LeCordon Bleu College of Culinary Arts in downtown Portland.<br />
<br />
We took a tour first. We saw an ironing room and my mom was taking pictures of that. They have an ironing room because when the students are on campus they have to wear their chef jackets and they have to be ironed because they work with food and they are suppose to look professional.<br />

We took a tour of the kitchens, and there were large mixers and huge tables. It was very impressive. Only, I could smell the gluten and feel it in my lungs and it started making me feel a little sick. </div>

Next up, we went to the demonstration kitchen where the chef taught us to cook a meal. The chef was a teacher who had been a chef in fancy restaurants and cruise ships all around the world.<br />

He taught us to make lettuce wrapped steaks with veggies. It looked really easy to make.<br />
<br />

Then... he called me up to the front! I was pretty scared but I did it. So I stood up in front of everyone and made the wrap and tasted it! It was so exciting for me.<br />

<br />
First, we went to the <a href="http://www.newseasonsmarket.com/our-stores/williams" target="_blank">Williams New Seasons</a>, and first, I brought over some bottles to recycle that I get from my neighbors. I got one dollar and thirty cents this time!<br />
<br />
So then we went in and I got my money and went over to the bakery and looked at the cupcakes but I couldn't decide! I was looking at these big fat cupcakes from <a href="http://www.glutenfreegem.com/desserts.html" target="_blank">Gluten Free Gem</a> and also the cheesecakes.<br />
<br />
My mom went shopping for soup so I could decide.<br />
<br />
Then I went over to these four pack deals from <a href="http://udisfood.com/" target="_blank">Udi's</a> and showed my mom and my mom said "you can get four for less, and have more than just one" so that's what I decided to do.<br />

<br />
I also got a Blue Sky organic soda and a <a href="http://www.justins.com/productsCandy.php" target="_blank">Justin's</a> candy bar. I bought all these with my bottle money and my gift card I won.<br />

This was chewy, crunchy and delicious. The chocolate makes me feel happy. </div>

<br />
Next, we went to Fred Meyer and I saw dairy free ice cream for 82 cents! I thought it was my lucky lucky day! AND THEN... my mom got REAL bacon and I was jumping up and down and I was saying "wow! this really is a miracle day!"<br />
<br />
So I made breakfast today with my muffin and real bacon, and some tea.<br />

I had my gift card that I won so I went to the cupcake area and chose a vanilla cupcake with chocolate frosting from<a href="http://www.newcascadiatraditional.com/" target="_blank"> New Cascadia. </a><br />
<br />
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEjIqTFse7b6vJdkoki5yrNRKQLGq3juD-lhtTo3QDqjBoN2dNBcm815QTaSgR701Cl0mKytN7l2plMPqHbiu3Iix4XNVWfV8pleXoCX6mcOALKOvyrcCZh0CevuO66cb4pIuQiBcSrofb8/s1600/IMG_0950.jpg" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" height="640" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEjIqTFse7b6vJdkoki5yrNRKQLGq3juD-lhtTo3QDqjBoN2dNBcm815QTaSgR701Cl0mKytN7l2plMPqHbiu3Iix4XNVWfV8pleXoCX6mcOALKOvyrcCZh0CevuO66cb4pIuQiBcSrofb8/s640/IMG_0950.jpg" width="480" /></a></div>
<br />
<br />
The frosting was at first hard, because it was refrigerated, then it softened in the car. Now it tasted like chocolatey butter.<br />
<a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEgE-MbuuRH3w0U0ob7CnutSYww7aVYpQZbWT0esUWbRDkfGOPlqVSk6Cn6gdQaDQssrwVbM2gxBKDAXH740rzHZIIanC7c4JiRW32B1rt-cqMOkSCYSqnfQ4zzwiCzsgtB_ExhZVHVcrcs/s1600/IMG_0956.jpg" imageanchor="1" style="clear: right; float: right; margin-bottom: 1em; margin-left: 1em;"><img border="0" height="640" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEgE-MbuuRH3w0U0ob7CnutSYww7aVYpQZbWT0esUWbRDkfGOPlqVSk6Cn6gdQaDQssrwVbM2gxBKDAXH740rzHZIIanC7c4JiRW32B1rt-cqMOkSCYSqnfQ4zzwiCzsgtB_ExhZVHVcrcs/s640/IMG_0956.jpg" width="640" /></a><br />
The candy sticks tasted like chocolate and vanilla swirl.<br />
<br />
The cake is vanilla and I LOVE vanilla, and it tastes moist; it's soft, nice in my mouth, and it's powdery, in a good way, not grainy.<br />
<br />
It's very sugary!<br />
<br />
You should go get one of these cupcakes at <a href="http://www.newseasonsmarket.com/" target="_blank">New Seasons </a>or New Cascadia, they are delicious! Fancy, divine, wonderful.<br />

We get a bag of fabric scraps, and then we design something from those scraps, then model it at the fashion show. I was in youth division.<br />
<br />
I made a really cool suit with spikes and a belt with spikes. When I walked down the runway every one whooped and hollered and it made me feel very proud of myself and it made me feel like a fashion designer. At the very end, I found out I won FIRST PLACE in the youth division! I was so surprised! For winning first place, I got a goodie bag! I got two gift cards for <a href="http://www.thesugarshoppdx.com/" target="_blank">The Sugar Shop </a> and since we were working on the blog, my mom and I decided that we were going to the Sugar Shop and write about it.<br />

A couple of weeks ago, we went to The Sugar Shop. The only gluten free thing there at the moment was peanut butter cookies. It was a five dollar gift card, so I was able to get three peanut butter cookies!<br />
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">

(I still had some Halloween make up on!)<br />
<br />
The cookies tasted like peanut butter and cookie and some chunks of peanuts. The cookies are soft, except for the crunchy peanuts.<br />

I didn't really believe Bob was even real, but we were sitting there listening to the tour lady, and unexpectedly, Bob walked through the door! I was so excited that I got to see Bob! He was 84 and I was pretty surprised he walked through his 15 acre factory every day.<br />

Then we took the tour and saw how they grind the grains and put it into bags. I learned they have over 400 products, and they work 24 hours a day.<br />

On June 15, 1988, Bob's Red Mill was burned down in a fire by an arsonist. And Bob said to the firemen "save my two stones!" and they were saved. But Bob didn't quit! They rebuilt the mill and the barn. Now it's a huge business and he gave his <a href="http://www.oregonlive.com/clackamascounty/index.ssf/2010/02/bobs_red_mill_natural_foods_ro.html" target="_blank">business to his employees</a>.</div>
<br />
At the end of the tour, they gave out free samples and a chip to buy a cookie at the store. <br />
<br />
After the tour, we went to the Bob's Red Mill red barn store and restaurant. I ordered the plate of three gluten free French Toast.<br />

There was eggs on the French Toast and I thought that was strange but it was so delicious and eggy. I thought three pieces of toast it wasn't going to be enough.

I took a first bite of the pumpkin pie and the only stuff I could get to was the cream, so I took a bite of the cream and it was wonderful, divine, beautiful.<br />

so many yummy looking things, hard to make a decision!<br />
<br />
Why I chose the pumpkin pie is one night I went to this bakery, <a href="http://www.backtoedenbakery.com/" target="_blank">Back to Eden</a>, with a friend named Kerry and I got the pumpkin pie and cake, and I wanted it again. Back to Eden sells all gluten free and vegan food.<br />

The pumpkin part tastes like pumpkin pie with a little bit of cinnamon. The cream tastes like coconut ice cream and nutmeg.<br />

I saved the rest until I got home and can get a crack at the crust. Now that I've had the crust, I would say it's a little hard, but pretty good!<br />

I went to order my pie and I wanted to give her my business card and I was really nervous, I don't feel that brave. But when I gave her my card, she was very excited that I have my own blog, so then I felt proud.Unknownnoreply@blogger.com1tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-9189250994653575405.post-67774306915346694542013-09-22T20:12:00.000-07:002013-09-29T09:54:47.509-07:00Marionberry Muffins<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">

Our favorite coffee shop, <a href="http://thearborlodge.com/" target="_blank">The Arbor Lodge</a>, had their two year anniversary party that we went to Saturday night.<br />
<br />
The next morning I woke up, got dressed, and ate breakfast. We wrote a thank you/congratulations card to Scott, who owns The Arbor Lodge. My mom and I were going to go to Trader Joe's and we went to the coffee shop first to bring the card. I was going to get dairy free hot chocolate but I saw these beautiful muffins. When I first got the muffin I felt the freshness in my hand.<br />

<br />
When I ate the muffin, I tasted the freshness and the delight of the muffin. The gluten free marionberry muffin was from <a href="http://www.floriobakery.com/storefront.html" target="_blank">Florio Bakery</a>. On one side I can taste a hint of sugar; on the other side I can taste a hint of honey, and if you taste both sides at once then it tastes divine!<br />
<br />
That was a fun first adventure of Chef Atticus!<br />
