Hello followers! Just a quick reminder that my weight-loss blog is here. 

Tumblr not allowing me to change my default page is a little frustrating, but I’ll get by!

dovah-cunt: zmizet: pinebark: wildunicornherd: thinksquad: Here is a Science fair project presented by a girl in a secondary school in Sussex . In it she took filtered water and divided it into two parts. The first part she heated to boiling in a pan on the stove, and the second part she heated to boiling in a microwave. Then after cooling she used the water to water two identical plants to see if there would be any difference in the growth between the normal boiled water and the water boiled in a microwave. She was thinking that the structure or energy of the water may be compromised by microwave. As it turned out, even she was amazed at the difference, after the experiment which was repeated by her class mates a number of times and had the same result. It has been known for some years that the problem with microwaved anything is not the radiation people used to worry about, it’s how it corrupts the DNA in the food so the body can not recognize it. Microwaves don’t work different ways on different substances. Whatever you put into the microwave suffers the same destructive process. Microwaves agitate the molecules to move faster and faster. This movement causes friction which denatures the original make-up of the substance. It results in destroyed vitamins, minerals, proteins and generates the new stuff called radiolytic compounds, things that are not found in nature. So the body wraps it in fat cells to protect itself from the dead food or it eliminates it fast. Think of all the Mothers heating up milk in these ‘Safe’ appliances. What about the nurse in Canada that warmed up blood for a transfusion patient and accidentally killed him when the blood went in dead. But the makers say it’s safe. But proof is in the pictures of living plants dying! NO, YOU PIG-IGNORANT ASSWIPES. SOME KID’S CLASS PROJECT IS NOT REAL SCIENTIFIC RESEARCH. YOU’VE HEARD OF “DOUBLE BLIND”, RIGHT? CALL ME WHEN IT’S PUBLISHED IN NATURE. the structure or energy of the water what the fuck does that even mean you realize that a water molecule is made up of three fucking atoms and if you rearrange it it isn’t water anymore and you would fucking notice the problem with microwaved anything is not the radiation people used to worry about Here is a handy diagram I drew of all the different types of radiation: Microwaves != nuclear reactors, so calm your tits. it’s how it corrupts the DNA in the food so the body can not recognize it …do you understand what DNA is and how eating works? DNA is a jumble of protein in the middle of each cell and it tells the cells in that particular organism how to make more cells. Your body does not care about whether your food has any DNA in it or not. The chemicals it cares about are things like vitamins and sugars, as well as inorganic shit like salt. (You can denature DNA by heating it or using chemicals like urea. It is like what happens when you fry an egg, which is basically a big glob of protein—the strands break apart and it looks like tiny white strings. Very cool.) Microwaves agitate the molecules to move faster and faster. I…just…that is the fucking definition of heat, whether you’re heating something over a flame or in a microwave or using the Sun. The difference is that microwaves mostly affect the water molecules in your food and they don’t need to use as much heat. Water boils at 100°C, which is just about as hot as water can get before it just turns into steam; but that’s like the lowest setting on your oven. Oven- or stove-cooked food tastes different partly because it uses higher temperatures and partly because heat is transferred in a different way. This movement causes friction That’s not what friction is. It results in destroyed vitamins, minerals, proteins and generates the new stuff called radiolytic compounds, things that are not found in nature. Let’s take these one at a time. Vitamins are classified as water-soluble or fat-soluble. So cooking things in water will dissolve the water-soluble vitamins (C and all the B’s). Just plain heat doesn’t do that, so microwaving veggies—which keeps the water in—is actually a healthier option. Proteins: Breaking the chemical bonds in proteins (denaturing) is a part of any cooking. However, denatured protein is still nutritious—that’s why you can meet your protein intake with foods like fried eggs and baked chicken. Minerals are just chemical elements, like off the periodic table—sodium, iron, potassium. (Vitamins and proteins are very complex combinations of elements.) Which brings me to the “radiolytic compound” bullshit. When you talk about breaking apart, say, iron—you’re talking about breaking down the iron atoms themselves. Which is a whole lot different than breaking the bonds between atoms. It takes hella radiation. You need shit like gamma rays—the OOOH SCARY NUCULAR radiation—which we’ve already established do not come from your microwave. things that are not found in nature What the shit does that even mean? You all know radioactive elements occur in nature, right? In rocks and also in living cells. That’s right, you have this radioactive kind of carbon INSIDE YOU. You get it by eating those delicious plants. We can tell how long ago something died by how much of it is left. Tons of shit that occurs naturally is horribly bad for you. And tons of shit that never existed until we cooked it up is great for you—like the chemical compounds in a lot of medications. PEOPLE WHO BELIEVE THIS SHIT ARE WHY CHILDHOOD DISEASES THAT CAUSED SERIOUS ILLNESSES AND/OR DEATH THAT WE NEARLY ERADICATED WITH VACCINES ARE NOW COMING BACK AND WHY CONSPIRACY THEORIST TWATS ARE ASKING CITY COUNCIL NOT TO FLUORIDATE THE WATER AND WHY GLOBAL WARMING WILL WRECK OUR FUCKING PLANET. LERN 2 SCIENCE. Think before you reblog. And microwave your veggies. Bless this takedown of a bullshit reblog. i can’t stop laughing holy shit you are angry

Oookie dokie! Time to pack my breakfast and get to the beach. I’ll try to remember to take a photo to post here, because it really is the most beautiful place. 

Good morning followers, have a great day!

So today family seemed to go on a bit of a baking spree. Unbeknownst to each other, my brother, one of my sisters, my mother and I all decided to use up pretty much all the flour. 

We also made a pretty good crack at the eggs, but considering all our hens are in full laying mode, that was never going to happen. (Meringues tomorrow to tackle THAT problem).

Recipe for today? Chocolate peppermint cupcakes. A quick FYI though: I never got around to icing them. My family isn’t known for its patience.

For the buttercream icing: 
  • 125g softened butter
  • 1 1/2/240g icing sugar
  • 2 tablespoons milk
  • green food colouring 
  • peppermint extract
Preheat your oven to 180C conventional/160C fan-assisted. Line 15 holes of a standard muffin pan with paper cases. 
Sift dry ingredients into a bowl, then add the remaining ingredients; beat with a mixer on a low speed until the mixture is combined, then increase the speed to medium and beat until the mixture is smooth and has changed to a paler colour.
Drop about 1/4 cup of mixture into each case. 
Bake for 20 minutes, stand for 5 minutes then turn top-side up onto a wire rack to cool. 
For the butter cream beat the butter until as white as possible. Beat in the sifted icing sugar and milk in two batches. Add the green food colouring and the peppermint extract, if using. 
To put them together spread the cupcakes with butter cream, then melted chocolate and add a few chocolate flakes to the top, for extra cuteness.

“To make a fighter you got to strip ‘em down to bare wood: you can’t just tell ‘em to “forget everything you know”. You got to make ‘em forget it in their bones… make ‘em so tired they only listen to you, only hear your voice, only do what you say and nothing else… show ‘em how to keep their balance and take it away from the other guy… how to generate momentum off your right toe and how to flex your knees when you fire a jab. How to fight backing up, so that the other guy doesn’t want to come after you. Then you gotta show ‘em all over again. Over and over and over… till they think they’re born that way.” - Million Dollar baby.

"You pretended the snooze button didn’t exist. You dragged your butt out of bed while others slept. While others ate their pancakes you had a feast of protein, glucose and electrolytes. You double-knotted. You left the porch light on and locked the door behind you. You ran. 5ks, 10ks, 26.2 miles. Some days more, some days less. You rewarded a long run with a short run. And a short run with a long run. Rain tried to slow you. Sun tried to microwave you. Snow made you feel like a warrior. You cramped. You bonked. You paid no mind to comfort. On weekends. On holidays. You made excuses to keep going. Questioned yourself. Played mind games. Put your heart before your knees. Listened to your breathing. Sweat sunscreen into your eyes. Worked on your farmers tan. You hit the wall. You went through it. You decided to be a man about it. You decided to be a woman about it. Finished what you started. Proved what you were made of. Just kept putting mile after mile on your internal odometer."

I am so excited about getting back into marathon training. And the reward of coming down off the trail on a Saturday morning, pulling off my shoes and diving straight into the lake to cool off.
