#Wholegrains are an important part of a #healthydiet, as they are a good source of #fiber, #healthyfats, #vitamins, #minerals, and #antioxidants. Studies show that whole grain consumption is linked to lower levels of #rheumatoidarthritis, #asthma, and #ulcerativearthritis, as well as a reduced risk of #coronaryarterydisease.

In recent years, the range of whole grains available on the market has dramatically increased and includes #barley, #spelt, #quinoa, #buckwheat, and #brownrice.

Fellas!
#brusselsprouts were on offer and I found my favourite supermarket to have a much wider variety of #spelt #pasta so I made a combination of two nyt- cooking recipes: pasta with fried #artichoke hearts, and air fried Brussel sprouts with aceto balsamico and #garlic .
The artichoke is pretty well priced sometimes, so it’s not expensive, either. And deliiicious!

This is what #spelt looks like apparently #grains #ancientgrains

After trying unsuccessfully to #veganize my mom's coffee cake recipe, I've now made the #vegan #CoffeeCake from #NoraCooks a handful of times and every time people have liked it a lot.

I modify the recipe slightly by substituting #wholegrain #spelt #flour for the all-purpose flour and reducing the #brownsugar in the topping by a bit.

Some firewood (two rows) under our woodshed (still under the old partly leaking roof). Some leftover wood blanks that I still need to hand split and a few leftover pieces of sapwood from the already splitted spelts.
The sapwood scraps I'll cut into firewood pieces. (60-80cm for the big oven and 30-40cm for the smaller stove)
