A Shadow in the Light by Keary Taylor Blitz and #Giveaway

A Shadow in the Light Keary Taylor (Parallel Verse Guardians, #1) Publication date: April 20th 2021 Genres: Adult, Paranormal, Romance “You went and fell in love with an ultralight? That’s like a spider falling in love with a butterfly. They’re both arthropods, but the entire universe knows they don’t belong together.” I needed an out. I needed to be someone who wasn’t trapped in Las Vegas, marooned in the LightVerse where I didn’t belong. I went to that club looking for nothing and everything, and there he was. Jaxon’s hands on my hips were just what I needed, and for...

So we may have a certain thing for American Chinese dishes as seen on our website with dishes like Mongolian Beef or Orange Chicken and now this halal General Tso chicken recipe

But we can’t help it, they’re just so easy to make and really hit the spot when it comes to iftar time! When doing research as to how to make this dish, we found a lot of the recipes for General Tso chicken use alcohol in the cooking whether it is marinating the chicken in rice wine or beer or using alcohol in the sauce. Clearly, this is not a halal-friendly recipe so we made a few substitutions so that it is suitable for us to eat and enjoy!  I’ve adapted this recipe from Serious Eats: The Food Lab as...

Happy Homemaker Monday

Garden work has started.  We had a busy weekend too.  We added another roost to the existing chicken coop.  Plans for the new one involve using barn wood from the knocked down barn.   We replaced the bottom board in one kitchen cupboard and purged what was under it. Installed the new wall towel rack in the smaller bathroom, installed new solar lights outside, and repaired a part on the dishwasher, and Hubby mowed all weekend. We ended the evening by grilling burgers, and toasting the buns on the grill.  We mixed in chopped garden jalapenos, garlic and onion, and topped...

Gluten-free bread recipe

I love making bread and have been baking it weekly for years now. However, I’ve been trying a low-FODMAP diet recently and really struggled to find a good gluten-free (GF) bread recipe. Eventually I found a half-decent one in a library book ( Bette Hagman, The Gluten-Free Gourmet Bakes Bread, published 1999) and did some playing around with the ingredients and method in that. I’ve made quite a few successful loaves now, so I’m sharing the recipe to help anyone else who wants to make their own GF and FODMAP-friendly bread. I reckon it’s as good as the GF bread...
