Saturday/Sunday Satire

I just wanted to add this because it's so gosh darn gorgeous and your dress looks spectacular.

I would like to say that we're clearly matured and respectable citizens now as it certainly looks like it but it's too much of contrast from the night before. This is when we first dressed... before heading to the beer pong table and then into a dark sentence of brain cell macabre ( I just wanted to use that word I think). All the egg sandwiches in the world did not save me on Sunday!

LOVE YOU!

Wow so we have been opting out of this again which shows how busy we are but we've had this blog for well over a year now so I am excited to look back when we're decrepit. I'm going to go out on a limb here and say that we might not even be that horrible if I follow through on consuming such thigs as this amazing almond milk recipe. I had my very first almond milk flat white the other day and it's the tastiest and healthiest alternative I have come across (unlike you, Mr Soy). We should add this to our cheese and chive scone night.

Place the almonds in a bowl and cover with water. Let soak for at least 6 hours, preferably overnight.

Place all the ingredients in a blender. Cover tightly, and puree for a minute or so, until it's milky. There will be some foam at the top from all the blending, but this will recede upon sitting.

To give the milk a smooth texture, place a fine mesh strainer or cheesecloth over a large bowl (if using cheesecloth make sure it's tightly secured) and empty the almond milk into the strainer. Squeeze or use the back of a spoon to push through all the liquid. What you will end up with is almond pulp. Keep the milk in a covered jar or container in the refrigerator, it should last for 5 days.

Instead of throwing the almond pulp out you can add it to cookies, pancakes and breads, eat it like a spread, a la almond butter, or if you have a dehydrator you can even make almond flour. Holla. You can also make chocolate almond milk by adding 2 tablespoons unsweetened cocoa powder or add cinnamon and nutmeg for a chai milk. Yuuuuuuuum.
