I made an angel food cake this morning, the diabetic's favorite because there is so little fat in it. Yes, I'm diabetic, one who always remembers and never forgets: SALSA is a free food. Bake a few low-fat tortillas in a low oven for a while, break them into chip-size pieces and eat with salsa, the free food, a snack even my endocrinologist would smile at.

But it's the angel food cake I made this morning, my husband goes in to work late today and he wanted a good snack. He's not diabetic but he won't ever turn down a piece or three of angel food cake. I baked it in one of those new plastic silicone pans, and it looks like the silicone didn't melt into the cake so I reckon it's a success. Mike (the hubster) was moaning because I said it wasn't going to come out of the pan until it was cool, and uh I was a little eager, too, so we devised a plan. We'd eat off the top crust while it was hot, then level off the cake even with the top of the pan, then call it a brand new dessert for supper. We figured the kid would not figure out what all she had missed.

[Jerusalem, July 16, 2007] ICAHD, Israeli Committee Against House Demolitions is a non-violent do something group opposed to the occupation of Palestine which resists the Israeli demolitions of Palestinian homes in the Occupied Territories. This summer ICAHD has committed to rebuild 300 of the -so far 18,000 homes the Israeli government has destroyed which has resulted in creating 18,000 homeless families who legally own their land.

We wanted to spread the word about our blog and some of the experimental storytelling we're using to talk about religion. Our first video diary is already up.
