2/3 c. oat bran
2/3 c. whole wheat pastry flour
1/2 tsp. baking powder
1/2 tsp. baking soda
1/4 tsp. salt
dash of cinnamon, dash of ground ginger

3 tbsp. raw cane sugar
1/2 c. nut butter, melted
1/2 c. yogurt

melt 1/3 c. to 1/2 c. of sunflower, peanut, almond, or whatever kind of nut butter you prefer, cream in along with 1/2 c. yogurt, egg, vanilla and a nice drizzle of molasses (i used backstrap and it worked great), and a bit of milk

once these are all creamed together add to the dry ingredients, mix, the batter will be quite fluid like a thicker pancake batter

whole wheat oat pancakes, easy, delicious

mmm these are goooooood. 

• 3/4 cup quick-cooking oats
• 1 1/2 cups plus 2 tablespoons well-shaken buttermilk, divided (you can add a tbsp of vinegar or lemon juice to milk for a substitute)
• 3/4 cup whole-wheat flour
• 1 1/2 teaspoons baking powder
• 3/4 teaspoon baking soda
• 1/2 teaspoon cinnamon
• 1/8 teaspoon grated nutmeg
• 1/2 teaspoon salt
• 1 tsp vanilla
• 1 large egg, lightly beaten
• 2 tablespoons unsalted butter, melted
• 1 tablespoon packed brown sugar (i substituted a 1/4 c of maple syrup granules, you could use maple syrup or honey too. a fourth cup was perfect)

• Accompaniment: sliced bananas

Soak oats in 3/4 cup buttermilk 10 minutes.

Meanwhile, whisk together flour, baking powder, baking soda, cinnamon, nutmeg, and salt in a large bowl.

Stir egg, butter, brown sugar, vanilla, remaining 3/4 cup plus 2 tablespoons buttermilk, and oat mixture into dry ingredients until just combined.

Heat a griddle over medium heat until hot and lightly brush with oil. Working in batches, pour 1/4 cup batter per pancake onto griddle and cook until bubbles appear on surface and undersides are golden-brown, about 1 minute. Flip with a spatula and cook other side, about 1 minute more. (Lightly oil griddle between batches.)

perceptive power flexing

"No longer can we consider what the artist does to be a self-contained activity, mysteriously inspired from above, unrelated and unreliable to other human activities. Instead, we recognize the exalted kindof seeing that leads to the creation of great art as an outgrowth of the humbler and more common activity of  the eyes in everyday life. Just as the prosaic search for information is 'artistic' vecause it involves giving and finding shape and meaning, so the artist's conceiving is an instrument of life, a refined way of understanding who and where we are."

this dude has received some bad press (danwinter.com) but i enjoy what he is saying it resonates so strongly

"we can actually choose how we assemble and electrical fractal in the electricity of the heart...that feeling is what we've been calling love"

mass that can be contained within a proton volume also happens to match the mass of the known universe

"Our universe is multi dimensional and it is made of one substance and one substance only! This substance is called aether and it is a vibrating fluid-like energy that permeates the physical vacuum. Matter as we know it is created moment by moment as a standing wave, a vortex in the physical vacuum. It is the condensed center of these vortexes that creates the illusion of a separate particle. All matter in the universe is interconnected since the particle fields extend to the far corners of the universe."
