Mango and pineapple are pretty high up there on the bad fruit list lol. I just need some sort of baked good that doesn't taste like dirt.

I'm definitely getting a ton of protein and fiber already. Basically been living on meat and veggies. I'm surprised my body isn't going insane tbh, after all these years of eating junk. I don't want to bulk up or anything weird like that haha, strictly for losing weight.



Could you do something like this http://chocolatecoveredkatie.com/2011/08/12/hot-fudge-brownie-larabars/ ?

If link doesn't work:


Quote
1 cup walnuts (120 g)
1 and 1/3 cups pitted dates (220 g) (I love SunMaid dates, as they’re much softer.)
1 tsp pure vanilla extract
3-4 tbsp cocoa powder (or even Dutch cocoa)
optional: 1/8 plus 1/16 tsp salt (I always add it)
optional: chocolate chips or even a piece of a chocolate bar or baking chocolate

Blend all the ingredients, using a food processor or Magic Bullet. No need to blend the dates first; I just blend everything all at once in my MB. If you use drier dates than SunMaid, you might have to add up to 1 tbsp water. Form into bars. It might help to put dough in a plastic bag and close the bag, then shape into a bar. (Feel free to experiment with different nut combinations. I often sub almonds or cashews for some of the walnuts.)

Yes, thank you <3

I was actually just looking at cocoa powder, was surprised that it really doesn't have much carbs or sugar.

i made the mistake of eating cocoa powder once. Most misleading hersheys product ever.
I tried to make chocolate milk, without tasting it before hand.

e/ I even got angry at my G/f for buying it. I wanted a chocolate milk so bad.

I just all kinds of cringed. I've used it a lot in baking but there's always a lot of sugar involved xD

I think the worst thing I've done was not too long ago, I was making a glaze for some donuts and it wasn't thickening properly, was really pissing me off. So I took a big lick of it to see what was off and realized I'd used cornstarch instead of powdered sugar. Yeah, not a good idea to stack those together.

mmm I learned how to use it by copying TzL
I assume he learned how to use it by copying someone else

i think the biggest issue with pentool, is you cant "kind of" pentool and have a nice finished product.
All pentool or no pentool. Or at least for me.

I guess our stock dump disappeared into the dead pages?

/e omigosh I have links in my profile.
your a genius past greg

Idk how you do that though, I just don't get how to use the tool at all. Looking at a tag with pentooling wouldn't help me :c I guess I could look up videos but I'm too cranky for that mess right now.

Lol, you're* a genius @ now greg

You doing real people or anime? I have so many anime stocks, idk what to do with them all

I don't have a witty response to my irony. Xan +1

Either or, do you have one you want made into something?
