Exercise TV

I really love Exercise TV: www.exercisetv.tv/ .
This is great for anyone that wants to do a quick workout. They have tons of free videos of varying lengths and levels. Today I did the Rock Hard Arms ( 20 minutes). And the Yoga Stretch (10 minutes) I love doing a 5-10 minute stretching video after I run.

9 grain Pancakes or waffles


I make these almost every day...

2 cups almond milk (can substitute water if out of almond milk)
1 Tbsp ground flax seed (grind in the blender for 3 min with 3 TBSP water)
1 Tbsp coconut oil (substitute earth balance butter)
1/2 tsp real salt
1 1/2 tsp aluminum free baking powder (rumford)
2 cups 9-grain flour (I use barley, millet, oats, brown rice, rye, wheat, amaranth, red quinoa, and buckwheat, equal parts, you can use any combination of flours you want as long as you add wheat too)
combine dry ingredients
stir in wet ingredients
cook on hot waffle iron or pancake griddle oiled for the first time

The little ones just love these! (and the big ones too!)
