The Adult Brain Continues to Learn -- A Lot!

A study that suggests adults can completely retrain, and their brains will absorb and use the knowledge. This is to the point of enlarging the brain, specifically the hippocampus.

I was hesitating whether to unmask this, but I figured we were vague enough that no one would know what we were talking about. Sorry to hear that cleaning has become a PITA. Gluten is the RITA for me -- the slightest amount kicks off inflammation. So, off to find more cookbooks to tempt me into permanent eradication of gluten/inflammation.

I found this on-line. Beard on Bread has a recipe, which was what I was thinking about when I mentioned Allie's family recipe -- a beer bread made sense to me in a Scandinavian family.

A lot of the early recipes are things I could no longer tweak to make my own and taste -- I'll have to find volunteers to eat the samples, if I make a special Allie cookbook!

I'm too far away to taste test your cooking - but if you want a recipe tester I volunteer.

I'll definitely ask on LJ if that ever becomes a reality! Thanks for offering.
