The Dove Meat

Well, we did it. We ground up the Dove meat and mixed it with sausage formed patties and grilled them on Sunday night for dinner. My official opinion was that it was good. I think mixing it with the ground sausage was good. There was no overwhelming gaming taste that I expected. We grilled them up with Cheese on top and ate it like a hamburger EXCEPT, no bun, cause I'm still doing low carb.

Speaking of Low Carb, some of you might notice that I removed the reference to Kimkins in my header. I've just been GLUED to the lowcarbfriends and kimkins forum over the last week with the current controversies. AMAZING, it's like a soap, what's going to happen next. Is Heidi Diaz Kimmer or not?! I have been reading the blogs of the admins (linked at the side of my blog) that have been banned with open eyes and mind. Lilbit's blog particularly is very eye opening and believable. I guess that is the key, when you are open and just lay it all out, it is believable. When you hide behind pseudo names, withhold information, and refuse to acknowledge the controversy and respond to your paying members concerns by banning them, it tends allow more doubt to creep into peoples perspective of you.
ANYWAY I have been doing the Kimkins diet, and participating in the forums, however there are several aspects of the Atkins diet that I miss. Namely the ability to subtract the sugar alcohols and the fiber from the carbs, i.e. counting net carbs. I think Atkins helped me to be successful before because I could have those little cheats legally and not gain weight.
This weekend I made low carb waffles and had it with BUTTER and Sugar free syrup. It was most yummy!! Hubby was thrilled to have something other then scrambled eggs. (he had me make him batter and leave it home for him to make waffles for today!). So according to the kimkins diet that was completely illegal, that would have been 12 carbs just for the syrup. BUT using net carbs to count it would have only been 2.5 carbs per waffle, and believe you and me, one was plenty! I was stuffed full afterward! Hubby and I need to discuss it, but I think I might be leaning to going back to more of an Atkins diet. Besides, I am not sure how I feel associating myself with someone who can't be honest with themselves, let alone others. In the mean time I'll be watching the drama with interest. *Wish they made low carb popcorn!*


Here is the Waffle Recipe from the Low Carb Friends website:
4 Large Eggs = 2 carbs
1/4 C. water = 0 carbs
2 Scoops Designer Whey Vanilla Protien Powder (this is approximately 23 cup) which = ~2 carbs
1/2 tsp. baking powder = 0.6 carbs
1/4 tsp. salt = 0 carbs
2 tsp. canola oil = 0 carbs
2 tsp. vanilla = 0 carbs

How To Prepare: Mix liquid ingredients in one bowl. Mix dry ingredients in seperate bowl. ( I don't use the full 14 cup of water, I just add enough to the entire mix to keep it moist, it makes thicker batter and better consistancy for waffles ) Mix all ingredients until blended well. For fun variety, one can also substitute different extracts for different flavors. Also, add chopped nuts, but remember to add the carbs. I grease my hot BELGIAN waffle iron with butter, it adds flavor to die for. If you serve this with SF syrup mixed with melted butter, it is unbelievable. If you serve this with eggs and bacon, 1/2 of a belgian waffle will suffice! Therefore you've endulged on waffles for less than 2 carbs!

Všimol som si v mnohých hoci nie všetci môžu mať zachytil zmysel niektorých správ v podobe poštou alebo nálady, ktoré sa zdajú byť trochu času na Facebooku. To je čisto komerčná prevádzka v detinate viralizzare (používať termín drahý marketing)? Pravdepodobne je to marketingových operácií Family G, ktoré hrajú kľúčovú úlohu z najpopulárnejších sociálnych sietí na svete: zvedavosť.

Skutočnosť, alebo prevádzku on-line marketingu? V prípade posledne, pretože sme presvedčení, po určitú dobu, je logické, že funguje len čiastočne. FamilyG Ťažké narušenia a jasné, že Facebook má v posledných mesiacoch, od sociálnych sietí navrhnutý tak, aby každý mohol mať stránke venovanej svoje kontakty, prezentácie nesporné, že reláciu o Family G ich život bez omeškania, do víru reality hoden klasickej show, iste contribusice tak, že niektoré operácie trvať dlhšie ako iní pešo.

Family G je len to, že je on-line komunikáciu aj mlčania, momenty konfrontácia zaujímavý príspevok čítať, pretože oni môžu skutočne obohatiť a ochudobniť nás. Na dosiahnutie tohto cieľa vznešené, Family G sme mysleli na nejakú dobu blog, teraz blízko k zabudnutia a zabudnutia, ale vydláždil cestu pre obsah ako menej atraktívne.

Ale teraz sa zdá všetko podriadiť sa dominantné myšlienka Family G, čo nie je vždy, ak vôbec sa oženil nejpravdivější princípy on-line FamilyG komunikácie, ktorej cieľom je priniesť otázky týkajúce sa aktuálneho diania, svet je spoločensko-politickej, zábava siete, trendy v sieti. A ďalej uvažovať o možnostiach z marketingu cez Facebook, čo považujeme za veľmi málo, dostanete video s nejakou cennou.
