Ahh...it's been too long

It's been almost 4 months since my last entry. I have been lost! Lost without my Constant Craver-ness!! Let me explain why. As part of reevaluating where I am and where I want to be, I decided that I needed to change the way I eat, and how I approach food in general. I know you have all heard the saying, you need to eat to live, not live to eat, I know it sounds cliche, but it is soo true. You don't realize the stuff you are putting in your body by eating high fat, high sugar, highly processed foods. I personally did a 4 day detox, and cut out soda from my diet and was able to lose 12 pounds in 2 weeks!! 12 pounds in 2 weeks!! I feel like I sound like an infomercial, but seriously, I'd forgotten what it was like to enjoy all natural, healthy foods that actually taste good. As this is still sort of new, I am still working through what I like, what I don't like, and how I can take the foods that I love, and make them healthy.

Crisp Seasonal Pork Dumplings w/ Kumquat infused Dipping Sauce Don't forget to check out all of the contestants and vote for your favorite!!! Who Won Battle Chestnut and Kumquat? ( poll ) So, it seems that unless I am signed up for a challenge where I must post my entries onto my blog, the poor thing gets ignored, its like the red headed step child of my cooking world :( So this month I am of course doing the Daring Bakers and Daring Cooks challenges, but I also signed up for this one called Foodie Fights , you basically send an email saying that you would like to participate in their upcoming battle and they will send you an email telling you if you have been accepted? or I guess if you signed up in time. They then let you know the ingredients you are going to be using. I had the fortunate luck of being involved in Battle 16 , Kumquats and Chestnuts. What is a Kumquat you ask? any of several trees or shrubs of the genus Fortunella bearing small orange-colored edible fruits with th

As if Alton read my mind...Apple Pie

Image
As I lay watching TV I got a sudden craving for Apple Pie...I often get these cravings out of thin air. I ran thru a quick inventory of what I knew we had for sure, and knew a) there were no apples and b) I hate making pie crusts. When the freckled one came in to ruin my thinking time, I had a bright idea to send her to to store to get 2 apples( 1 red and 1 green). After much pouting and borderline tantruming on my part, as if in tune with my cravings, Good Eats came on with an Apple Pie episode. She turned, gave me a wtf look, and I knew I had won! Cravings one Freckled one zero. I was left with another problem...no pie crust, then it came to me...left over wonton skins! I've only used wonton skins for rangoons , wontons and as a quick ravioli, so I wasn't sure if it was going to work, but my mind was already in overdrive thinking of how to make my pie. I knew I would have to dice my apples(i ended up with a med julienne), I knew we had sugar, cinnamon, ginger,but no lem
