By now I'm sure you have heard of that Pizza shop owner and their outrageous call to not serve gays...
The RawStory headline read, 'Backlash is swift and furious after Indiana pizza restaurant brags about 'no gays' policy'.
The Huffington Post, 'Indiana Memories Pizza reportedly becomes first business to reject catering gay weddings'.
The Daily Beast, 'No pies for gay weddings.'
Barbaric and humiliating those homophobic villains...
Some think it was a publicity stunt by a small town pizza place...
Did you jump on the hate bandwagon?
Did you head to Yelp to read the repulsive 'reviews' and laugh?...did you share them with your friends?
Are you an intolerant simpleton? (I'm not calling you one....I'm asking you if you are one...look deep.)
Did you research any of this story or did you take the word of a 'journalistic' on-line rag looking to garner your hate to force an agenda that you don't even understand?
I'm going to tell you what really happened...
Lets start with what was happening, the RFRA was under attack..but there was no attack that the left could use so they had to create the perception of a vile Christian denying a same sex couple service.
This story was NOT a story until a news organization created one out of thin air...poof...like magic.
ABC57 had to hunt down a small town business (the business didn't come to them) and ask them a few questions...Please...check it out yourself.
http://www.abc57.com/story/28681598/rfra-first-business-to-publicly-deny-same-sex-service
They were not denying anyone anything.
They did not discriminate against anyone.
They did not call anyone repugnant names.
They did not wish others dead.
The next day that same 'news' organization updated the story with remarks of hate by lefties bandwagon riding fools (I'll call them names).
...and the viral hate spiral spun a web of nefarious myth.
There is a leftist mafia that doesn't care about the truth.
They have a Marxist agenda.
You may not have free speech unless it's the speech they decide that is acceptable.
You may not have free thought unless it's the free thought they find acceptable.
If you do not agree with their agenda you are intolerant.
If you do not tow the line of what they have decided as 'right' they will destroy you with shame and humiliation.
They have an army of brainwashed Cretin that they are able to deploy via the net at any moment.
...and deploy them they did...
Are you one of them?
There is more to this story, after so much hate posted on-line on various sites, after death treats and after fire bomb threats they had to close their doors.
They didn't have to close their doors because they did wrong to someone, or were selling bad pizza and were being punished.
They had to close them because of the lefts intolerant and scornful might had made them fear for their lives and those they employed.
A gofund me page was started and over $600,000 has been donated to Memories Pizza.
There are resentful comments regarding the donations made to people that did nothing.
Now that you know the story...
Who is the fanatical bigot?

Religious Freedom Restoration Act
This is a message from a Wiccan that supports gay marriage, States rights and our 1st Amendment.
Many of you are falling for or have been duped by the outlandish and very wrong statements by the very far left with the concerns to the Religious Freedom Restoration Acts in some of our states...19 of them.
I'm not here to insult you. I'm here to help you because 'they', the far left, are not telling the truth. They are pleading to your feelings by fabricating false narratives of asinine 'what ifs'...that do NOT apply to this Law but are voiced to shake you to your core and make you want to stand up and shake your hand in the air...."WE WILL NOT SUFFER THESE FOOLS AND THIS DISCRIMINATION!"
I'm sorry my friends...
It's time for me to stand up and tell you that the hyperbole you are emphatically repeating is wrong.
Unless you don't believe in the 1st amendment ...but I think you do.
First, I'm going to explain in simple terms what this Act is...and an example of how this Act works.
Secondly I'll explain why as a Wiccan that supports gay marriage why I support this Act.
Thirdly I'll point out the hypocrisy of those that are speaking out against these RFRA's.
1. The difference between the state RFRAs vs the federal RFRA is simple but I believe important and make sense in terms with our first Amendment and States rights (ya know, The UNITED STATES of America). In the Indiana RFRA it allows a defendant to use their right to exercise their religion as a defense in a court of law against another civilian party. The Federal RFRA allows you only to use that defense against the Federal court.
This Act lets someone refuse service (yes, it does) on terms that to give service would go against someone else's religious beliefs but not to discriminate in the sense of service. That didn't make sense...here is an example, a clear and concise example that anyone could understand. I'm going with the baker example 'cause it's simple.
Example:
A gay couple are walking down the street, neatly dressed of course, and see a bakery, they decide to check it out. They meander in and Oooh and Ahhh at the lovely sweet morsels before their eyes. They purchase some sweets and fall in love...not with each other, they already love each other...the sweets, they fall in love with the sweets.
They become regular acquaintances with the sweets and the owner, it's a small business, like most bakeries, they are also probably an LLC, like most small businesses.
At this point the Baker knows they are gay (doesn't really care) and has never refused service or to 'discriminate' against them.
Then one day as they are planing their wedding and the cake comes into play...
They go to the Baker with glee, Pinterest on their iPad and ideas in their heads for their wedding cake.
The Baker informs them that because of her religious beliefs she can't participate in their wedding in any manner....but wishes them luck and hands the number of several other recommended bakeries.
The gay couple are a little taken aback and post something on FaceBook with regards to the slight they feel. ...but they get over their feelings being hurt and call some of the recommended bakeries.
The next day someone from the LGBT mafia contacts them and says let's sue the Baker for discrimination.
Without the RFRA the Baker has no legal standing. None.
No right to exercise their belief. None.
With the RFRA the Baker AND the gay couple are allowed their day in court and due process.
Note...Again...the federal RFRA is only allowed to be used for an individual AGAINST the federal government.
The Indiana state RFRA allows the defendant (the Baker) to use their right to religious freedom, (our 1st Amendment) in defense to the plaintiffs (the gay couple).
The court would then decide if the gay couple had been discriminated against or if the Baker was exercising their right to their religious belief.
Now...if the Baker had seen two men or two women walk in and refused to sell them eclairs because he/she believed them to be gay...that would be discrimination and sure as a Christian believes there to be a hell the court would hear that case and the baker would be laughed out of court.
2. “In Germany they came first for the Communists, and I didn't speak up because I wasn't a Communist. Then they came for the Jews, and I didn't speak up because I wasn't a Jew. Then they came for the trade unionists, and I didn't speak up because I wasn't a trade unionist. Then they came for the Catholics, and I didn't speak up because I was a Protestant. Then they came for me, and by that time no one was left to
Someone needs to speak up and out against those that want to take away our 1st amendment...because it's one more step to take away our freedom.
Bit by bit they erode our rights as American citizens.
"Congress shall make no law respecting an establishment of religion, or prohibiting the free exercise thereof; or abridging the freedom of speech, or of the press; or of the right of the people peaceably to assemble, and to petition the government for a redress of grievances."
That is a powerful statement and core to the USA.
How many politicians would like the government to control that which our press reports? (Ok, my bad, main stream media is already controlled.)
The uber religious fundamentalists aka Westboro baptist church...wouldn't you like to stop them from assembling in front of Service members funerals?
If you are a Jewish caterer and kosher is it discriminatory to refuse to cook a pork dish?
The ultra left thinks only their speech should not be hindered but others should be smothered.
3. The hypocrisy is robust in the left that speaks out against the RFRAs and their voice is the loudest. It doesn't make it factual.
Note...I'm not going into the hypocrites of the religious right like Ted Haggard...they are not for this blog.
Connecticut Gov. Malloy has banned State funded travel to Indiana...hilariously they have a RFRA ...Here is the key sticking point...
(c) A person whose exercise of religion has been burdened in violation of the provisions of this section may assert they violation as a claim or defense in a judicial proceeding and obtain appropriate relief against the state or any political subdivision of the state.
NY Gov. Andrew Cuomo has also banned State funded travel to Indiana, the offense is our 1st amendment.
He's planning on leading a trade commission to CUBA!
Where gay marriage is illegal and political dissidents are imprisoned and tortured.
He also hasn't banned state funded travel to Connecticut yet...
Angies' List is canceling it headquarters expansion over the religious freedom bill...or could it possibly be because last week Pennsylvania class action suit is being filled by its members alleging a scheme to defraud...it's putting on hold now a taxpayer subside of $18.5 billion they were hoping to get from the Indianapolis City-County Council that was in all probability going to be voted down...
Lets all take advantage of the band wagon.
Tim Cook of Apple and Marc Benioff of Salesforce are speaking out and perhaps pulling out of Indiana because of the RFRA...Insanely they find it fine and dandy to business in a country the has forced abortions, a horrible view on gay rights let alone human rights!..CHINA.
Is that enough? I hope so because I'm tired of the loudest and the most wrong getting the attention of the willfully ignorant...so I'm here to share the truth.
...I will be disregarded I'm sure though because some of been indoctrinated into believing everything the left says.

If you don't like my political posts...read this.
I post many political post. I lose 'friends' over my posts...ok obviously they weren't my friends.
You might wonder why I post?
Why I care so much about politics?
Why I care about policy?
...because so many people don't care.
...because so many people don't 'get it'.
...because so many people think they understand...but really don't.
As an American I believe in the future. However over the past 100 years our future has eroded by means of politics and policy.
..."I gave you money for your school system and you accepted it...so you can only have one mayo packet because I don't think you or your parents are smart enough to know what is good for you...I do."
I thought we abolished slavery?
Control.
Common Core standards? Do a massive amount of research and learn the truth. All states that adopted it received federal money (money they took from tax payers). What will the end result of common core be? (Do your own research...and be scared.) It leaves every one of our children on an even playing field..ya know...we have to be fair. It leaves our 12th graders with a 9th grade education.
Why would our government want to do that?
I thought we abolished slavery?
Control.
School Choice? What's wrong with backing parents being allowed to put their children into schools they see as the best for their children? homeschooling...H to the double L no. You can't possibly be smart enough to know how to do that. (I'm not...but some of you are.)
Our government is against this...why?
Control.
Welfare is awesome? Yeah...it's aight. There is a need for it...but when it becomes a way of life and the only way to get food you have the government controlling you...
Section 8 housing? ...waaaaait...that means you can only live in a government approved housing.
Why would you want that?
I thought we abolished slavery?
Control.
ObamaCare...You have free health insurance? Are you sure it's free? Really? It's free?
Two points...
If it's free for you, that money came out of someone else's pocket. Period. Stop.
The government did not earn that money...the government doesn't earn money...it takes it from other people so it can...make things fair? (nah)...
In turn I worry how I'm going to pay rent...or my hair stylist whose Insurance bill via ObamaCare is over a $1000.00 a month. But wait...that's not all...they have to pay the $7500.00 deductible out of pocket first. Do you have $7500.00 extra? Ah..but what about subsidies? Subsides?! By all the Gods...THAT"S MY MONEY!!! ...but wait there's more...if you don't register with our great and all mighty tax agency...you are gonna be in a tad bit of trouble.
#abolishtheIRS
Second point...The government decides what hospital, doctor you can use or even work they will subsidize...
I thought we abolished slavery?
Control.
(We needed healthcare reform...not a program where all responsible people were thrown into two different shark tanks at the same time...shark tanks= Insurance companies and the IRS.)
You might not appreciate my use of the word, slavery. If you do you need to Politically correct yourself off this blog and read some history books. You might learn something.
What does the progressive agenda want?
Is it to make your life better?
To provide food for you?
Provide healthcare for you?
Provide the best education?
Do you want to discuss regulations on businesses/industry?
I'll take one industry...Coal...because we all use it and need it.
Our government has added more and more regulations on coal. so much so our coal plants are shutting down...with more regulations to come...no lie.
Do you like your Prius?
It's so fabulous and you are doing our environment good because it can run on electricity...
Where does your electricity come from?
The majority of it comes fossil fuels...like coal.
When you plug in your precious Prius ...Do you get what I'm saying?
Have you seen your heat/or electricity bill go up? I have.
What does the progressive agenda want?
Control.
Do you not understand what I'm talking about still? Think I'm over the top...
Research communism...
Control.
Progressives are just communists in a mask.
Now...Why would I post this right after our mid-term election?
The American people voted hands down for change but don't realize that the standard, run of the mill, establishment Republicans don't really want change.
They won't over-turncommunist Liberal polices
They want to stay in power.
We need to think of 2016...
Not towards establishment Republicans...
Not towards the communist Liberal left.
We need INDEPENDENT.
We need someone that understands where money comes from.
We need someone that understands business.
We need someone that is PRO family...
NOTE...gay or straight... Our candidate needs to know we don't care!!! All we care about the future of our children.
We need someone that stays away from religions. Period. It's the American way.
We need someone that understands the way of other countries...some real internationally polices would be great.
We need someone that understands we are responsible adults and don't need a nanny.
We need someone that will break our bonds and end slavery in America...for the second time.
You might wonder why I post?

Just me going off...
I sit here and read the news everyday. I read several versions of the same story so I can get a good perspective and a modicum of truth.
I post political stories so often on my Facebook personal page I get de-friended regularly. I'm probably blocked by half the people I know.
Why do I post political stories?
I post them so we don't continue in this death spiral of marxism, communism, progressivism, fascism or socialism...or whatever name you want to call it.
We are having an immigration problem right now. It's a huge problem. These poor people are coming to the great country of the United States of America for a chance to improve their lives. Some immigrants are going through the proper channels...like many of our ancestors (mine included that came over from Poland).
Do you know what this amnesty bill will do?
It will disenfranchize EVERY immigrant that ever came here to better their lives.
I'm gonna refer to those on the left as progressives which is exactly what they are not. They want to implement programs and regulations that have proven to NOT work. (Italy, Germany, Cuba, North Korea, USSR...)
Control is what they want.
I'm sorry you can't buy a soda that big...it's bad for you.
No, you aren't allowed to change the windows in your house without a permit...you might not know what you are doing and we know what's best. Yes you have to pay for the permit so we can keep this person giving you the permit a government job.
You need to register your car with the state...so we can tax you and give that money to people who don't have any...fuck the roads.
I have an idea...let's destroy the middle class and make everyone equal. Income inequality is the 'new' thing right?
Do you want me to tell you about income inequality?
NORTH KOREA!!!!! Where those in charge have anything and everything they want and the people are starving. That is income inequality.
That is also the direction (I'm being extreme to prove a point) we are heading...we have a ruling class and they wish to control ALL of us.
The Veterans Affairs hospitals and clinics...what a joke...and the saddest of all kinds.
Bureaucracy...it's a death spiral and was a progressive idea. Government jobs for people and if they didn't do their job they couldn't even be fired...did you know the Secretary of the Veterans Affairs was not allowed to fire anyone.
That is where we are headed...the Affordable Care Act...what a joke. It's also not even close to affordable.
Unions..."the workers unions"...It's a semi-marxist idea.
Minimum wage? Example...I'm an artist. I can price things I make any price I want. Do you know what my 'stuff' is worth...only that which the buyer will pay....period.
$15 to flip a burger...guess what...some capitalist, intelligent, entrepreneur and inventor just created a gourmet burger making machine. By, by burger flipping jobs.
Hey, electric car driver....did you hear that Obama's EPA has just issued new guidelines on coal? You might want to do some research and find out where your electricity comes from.
Meanwhile our dear leader is negotiating the terrorists. The war is ending in 2016 according to MSM and Obama. If 10 percent of Muslims are extremists do you think they are gonna give a shit that we stopped the war. Obama is an idiot surrounded by yes men. Sharia Law anyone? Make no excuses for it or the peaceful Islamic faith...peaceful my ass. I wanna see Muslims protest Muslim terrorists.
I'm pissed off by the looters.
I'm pissed off that Eric Holder is a criminal and doesn't up hold the laws we have. If we don't like the laws...we change them.
I'm pissed off because Obama does what everthe fuck he wants...pen and paper and phone?! I thought he studied our Constitution...I think he either skipped those days or failed the class.
I'm pissed of because there is a 'war on women'...hyped up crap by the left.
Race issues? We actually don't have many and the ones we do are created by haters like Al Sharpton.
Hillary Clinton said they were "broke" when they got out of the White House and they were having a hard time getting "mortgages for houses" HOUSES WITH AN S!!! She is so out of touch.
I'm pissed off.
We HAVE to change the direction of our country. The problem is those that see the problem ...well we are reasonable (me being reasonable can be debatable).. and reasonable people think we can do this the easy way by voting.
God willing we can because if we can't..we are in a shit load of trouble.
This is why are forefathers gave us the second amendment.
“How do you tell a Communist? Well, it’s someone who reads Marx and Lenin. And how do you tell an anti-Communist? It’s someone who understands Marx and Lenin.”
― Ronald Reagan
“In a way, the world−view of the Party imposed itself most successfully on people incapable of understanding it.

I post political stories so often on my Facebook personal page I get de-friended regularly. I'm probably blocked by half the people I know.
Why do I post political stories?
I post them so we don't continue in this death spiral of marxism, communism, progressivism, fascism or socialism...or whatever name you want to call it.
We are having an immigration problem right now. It's a huge problem. These poor people are coming to the great country of the United States of America for a chance to improve their lives. Some immigrants are going through the proper channels...like many of our ancestors (mine included that came over from Poland).
Do you know what this amnesty bill will do?
It will disenfranchize EVERY immigrant that ever came here to better their lives.
I'm gonna refer to those on the left as progressives which is exactly what they are not. They want to implement programs and regulations that have proven to NOT work. (Italy, Germany, Cuba, North Korea, USSR...)
Control is what they want.
I'm sorry you can't buy a soda that big...it's bad for you.
No, you aren't allowed to change the windows in your house without a permit...you might not know what you are doing and we know what's best. Yes you have to pay for the permit so we can keep this person giving you the permit a government job.
You need to register your car with the state...so we can tax you and give that money to people who don't have any...
I have an idea...let's destroy the middle class and make everyone equal. Income inequality is the 'new' thing right?
Do you want me to tell you about income inequality?
NORTH KOREA!!!!! Where those in charge have anything and everything they want and the people are starving. That is income inequality.
That is also the direction (I'm being extreme to prove a point) we are heading...we have a ruling class and they wish to control ALL of us.
The Veterans Affairs hospitals and clinics...what a joke...and the saddest of all kinds.
Bureaucracy...it's a death spiral and was a progressive idea. Government jobs for people and if they didn't do their job they couldn't even be fired...did you know the Secretary of the Veterans Affairs was not allowed to fire anyone.
That is where we are headed...the Affordable Care Act...what a joke. It's also not even close to affordable.
Unions..."the workers unions"...It's a semi-marxist idea.
Minimum wage? Example...I'm an artist. I can price things I make any price I want. Do you know what my 'stuff' is worth...only that which the buyer will pay....period.
$15 to flip a burger...guess what...some capitalist, intelligent, entrepreneur and inventor just created a gourmet burger making machine. By, by burger flipping jobs.
Hey, electric car driver....did you hear that Obama's EPA has just issued new guidelines on coal? You might want to do some research and find out where your electricity comes from.
Meanwhile our dear leader is negotiating the terrorists. The war is ending in 2016 according to MSM and Obama. If 10 percent of Muslims are extremists do you think they are gonna give a shit that we stopped the war. Obama is an idiot surrounded by yes men. Sharia Law anyone? Make no excuses for it or the peaceful Islamic faith...peaceful my ass. I wanna see Muslims protest Muslim terrorists.
I'm pissed off by the looters.
I'm pissed off that Eric Holder is a criminal and doesn't up hold the laws we have. If we don't like the laws...we change them.
I'm pissed off because Obama does what ever
I'm pissed of because there is a 'war on women'...hyped up crap by the left.
Race issues? We actually don't have many and the ones we do are created by haters like Al Sharpton.
Hillary Clinton said they were "broke" when they got out of the White House and they were having a hard time getting "mortgages for houses" HOUSES WITH AN S!!! She is so out of touch.
I'm pissed off.
We HAVE to change the direction of our country. The problem is those that see the problem ...well we are reasonable (me being reasonable can be debatable).. and reasonable people think we can do this the easy way by voting.
God willing we can because if we can't..we are in a shit load of trouble.
This is why are forefathers gave us the second amendment.
“How do you tell a Communist? Well, it’s someone who reads Marx and Lenin. And how do you tell an anti-Communist? It’s someone who understands Marx and Lenin.”

“In a way, the world−view of the Party imposed itself most successfully on people incapable of understanding it. They could be made to accept the most flagrant violations of reality, because they never fully grasped the enormity of what was demanded of them, and were not sufficiently interested in public events to notice what was happening. By lack of understanding they remained sane. They simply swallowed everything, and what they swallowed did them no harm, because it left no residue behind, just as a grain of corn will pass undigested through the body of a bird.”

REAL ObamaCare Numbers
President Obama came out with the fantastic news on the ACA and, and what he referred to as ObamaCare.
7.1 million people have enrolled.
WaHoooooooo
That is a huge number and we should be proud. (Sarcasm is hard to read.)
Note...These are REAL numbers from the NCPPR (National Center for Public Policy Research)
2/3 (4.7 million) already had insurance and just switched over to a new plan under the ACA.
1/3 (2.4 million) new enrollees. (People that didn't have insurance before.)
Of that 1/3 of new enrollees few than 1/2 of them have not paid their premiums.
Those are real numbers and it totals 7.1 million.
If you subtract those that had insurance already and those that have not paid their premiums the total of people that didn't have insurance before the deadline that are NOW insured is...
Math time!
7.1 million enrolled per President Obama
- 4.7 million previously insured (just switched over)
= only 2.4 million new enrollees (people who didn't have coverage before)
- 1.2 million of new enrollees have not paid their premiums
= 1.2 million people that were not insured before are now insured.
ObamaCare/ACA has actually only signed up 1.2 million people.
Now...I''ll add some more numbers because not to would be unkind and make this an untruth...
Changes to Medicare, Medicaid and allowing youth up to the age of 26 to be on their parents plan within this tax law we can add more numbers...but can we really?
I will anyway with the caveat that at 18 you can join the military and die for The United States Of America. You can also vote...both of those are not for the light hearted.
Responsibility wise you are technically an adult at age 18.
I think it's insulting to those in their early twenties, that written into this law, the Obama administration doesn't think they are responsible to manage their money but can give their life.
4.5 million people were able to enroll in Medicare because of changes in eligibility.
3.1 million 'Youth' (that is hard for me to type) now covered under their parents plan.
More math time!
1.2 million new enrollees.
+ 4.5 million new medicare enrollees
+3.5 million 'youths' covered under parents
= 9.2 million
Now a little wrench thrown in not to spin but for a little slap in the face...
- 6, 286,357 million people that got kicked off their plans because of ObamaCare/ACA
= 2,913,643
Note...we can spin this any way you want, Obama sure did.
This law has been changed 38 times so far and cost the American people billions of dollars so far...
I think the cost of this will be later on another blog.

Politics (now you will never read it;) bwahahahahaha)
Today I went to the El Paso County Republican Assembly to support a candidate running for Sheriff. I went not knowing for sure I would support him or not, John Anderson. He was the former Sheriff before our now infamous Sheriff Maketa (I'm a huge fan of Maketa - he stood up for our rights as Americans when others did not).
Sheriff Maketa was putting his name and reputation behind Anderson and not the front runner, Bill Elder.
I had a private conversation with Sheriff Maketa...then I met John Anderson.
Putting your name behind a candidate is a very personal thing to me.
Politics suck but I am a Mom and I care about the future for my children...so I'm going to CARE.
I'm going to read everything I can about those running for office.
If I can I want to meet them.
I know my friends get sick of seeing my political posts on Facebook..I don't mind. Maybe I can help one person realize the truth about a candidate and which might be suited best for a job. Maybe not even the candidate I support...but at least you go out their educated.
Ignorant people just don't know.
Stupid people know but ignore or dismiss.
I sorta liked Paul Ryan awhile back...and then...he put together the Ryan/Murray budget...BAM! No more respect from me. That was the biggest load of crap.
There will never be a candidate that fits all my criteria so I'm always gonna have to make concessions. (I'm a fiscally conservative Wiccan that is pro life (I don't believe in the death penalty either) and I'm pro gay marriage....I also don't care for the attacks on Christians of late. I believe in my constitutional rights and YOURS.)
Oh...and I'm anti drug...I'm a MOM with three Children! Of course I'm anti -drug.
So I'm not a Libertarian, a Republican, a Democrat...or any of the other political parties.
I'm an Independent in its truest form and I WANT to believe in someone....
...but I'm going to have to make a concession here and there, I know this.
When I share the information I share I want you to read it. Don't agree, fine. BUT CARE. Be nice. Use good matters (that's hard sometimes because ignorant people learn, stupid people will argue....stupid within any party).
John Anderson did not win the votes to make the ballot, Bill Elder did.
What do we do now?
Everything I have read and heard Bill Elder makes him NOT a great or even good choice. Some one tonight told me, "He won? I'm not voting for him."
Do we find an independent to run against Bill Elder?
I don't have money to put behind any candidate...all I have is the internet.
Do you even care?
The Governors race is coming up...2014 is going to be something...
Will you go to the ballot stupid? ignorant? or educated?
The following articles and/or videos are only half the problem...

I heard a comedian (I can't remember who it was or I would give them credit)...
...Politicians should be like race car drivers... the politicans that receive big money should have to wear patches on their suits so we know who paid for their vote.

Gluten Free Buttermilk Pancakes
Something not political!!!
I have found I don't care for the 'mixes' you can buy of gluten free 'flour'...I like the brownies and cakes though.
I wanted to make Pancakes for my five favorite Children...my three and my 'Boy'-friends. One of the Children has Celiacs so we are very careful. One of the others has a life threatening allergy to all nuts...gluten/nut free I can do now. A lot of gluten free stuff is 'nutified'...
I'll have a few notes at the bottom...
I made it up as I went but wrote it down (small miracle)...
Mix Dry ingredients in large bowl
1 Cup tapioca starch
1 Cup brown rice flour
1 Cup sweet sorghum flour
2 Cups white rice flour
1/2 tsp salt
1 tsp Guar Gum
1 tsp Xantham Gum
8 tsp baking powder
2 tsp baking soda
4 Tbs sugar
In a seperate bowl mix the wet ingredients
1 quart buttermilk
4 eggs
1/2 Cup butter melted
2 tsp vanilla
When everything is ready pour the wet into the dry and stir...do not over stir.
Then cook your pancakes the way you regularly would but as with all gluten free batters it...different...you will need to spread them out a bit and you will not get pretty circles.
Makes enough to feed two 9 year old boys, one 10 year old boy and two 12 year old girls that love pancakes and one Mom. If you need to feed the Dad too...make some eggs to distract the boys a bit away from the pancakes.
Notes...
That's a lot of different flours I used. I know. You HAVE to have the tapioca starch for sure. As for the rice flours you probably could use one kind...I have no idea about the sweet sorghum flour...I figure it says 'sweet'....I should use about a cup;).
Guar Gum and Xantham Gum are not interchangeable but many recipes only call for one or the other....always use both. If a recipe calls for 2 tsp of Guar Gum use one of Guar Gum the other Xantham....it makes a difference.
They also require an acid to activate them. In these pancakes the buttermilk is the acid. When baking bread type recipes call for vinegar but you will get a tiny bit of a better flavor if you use lemon juice (not the kind you squeeze from a bottle, the kind you squeeze from a lemon).
You also should know you will have to take out an extra mortgage for the Gum's but you don't use that much and if you have someone with celiacs it's worth it so the family can have yummy things to eat and person with Celiacs will stay safe and healthy.
Also note Gluten Free baking is easy, fun and always a science experiment....I've thrown away some doozies!!!
It's usually not 'attractive' and it's lumpy looking...go for flavor.
