I am going to post the recipe without the soaking step, but if you are interested in how and why to soak ...

I love all of the fresh fruits and vegetables that I am getting from my garden as well as my mother-in-laws garden. I wish we could have them all year long.

You have made your decision to try and make the transition from work to home and you are so excited that you tell all of your family and friends.

I am starting this blog in hopes that I can touch as many mothers as possible and help them to realize their dreams of becoming a stay at home mom. I am not going to say that it will be easy and that there will not be struggles along the way, but it will be well worth it when you can wake up in every morning and realize that you don't have to hurry up and get the kids ready to go to the babysitter and that you will ...
