Singing in the Rain

Life is just too short to pass up the chance to dance in some puddles. When the torrential downpour hit suddenly my children's first thought was "puddle time!" I wish in life when the rains came pouring down I spent more time thinking about how much fun the puddles will be. These fun-loving kiddos grabbed ponchos and their parents boots and went to town splashing and stomping and completely covering themselves. Tyler thought it should count as a bath, though I thought otherwise =) And afterwards, as always, following a storm, the most beautiful sky. Breathtaking. It stopped me in my tracks.
Celiac has been a struggle. It felt like a nonstop torrential downpour but today I felt like dancing in the puddles. I discovered that almond flour is more nutritious than wheat flour, has a lower glycemic index, which is better for diabetics, is easy to cook with, and tastes delicious. Splash splash! What a discovery. Perhaps we will all benefit from celiac.
A good friend delivered an almond flour cookbook and the recipes are simple, healthy, and delicious. Stomp stomp! I am loving this sky! Goodbye rainstorm- the puddles are fabulous!!!
