I'm a terribly messy person. And this also applies to the fridge. I buy stuff intending to bake with it and then I get a different idea, buy more, get another idea, and so on. Today was get rid of the cottage cheese and Greek yogurt day.
I used cottage cheese in my grain free protein pancakes and found a way to use them in whole grain pancakes. Like I've said before, you just can't compare wheat and almond flour pancakes. Whole wheat wins. And they win here. These are amazing!
I'm not really into thick pancakes. I always spread them out with measuring cup I used to pour them into the pan. These are SO soft. I don't know if I would say fluffy, just because they're so thin, but super soft. They're now my favorite pancakes. By far.
Something else that I love about them is how good they are cold. I ate these from the fridge all day and they were awesome. I just couldn't get my mind off of them.
This recipe is easily doubled, which is how I prefer to make them. I like to have some for the week to make my mornings a little brighter. It's nice to have something to wake up for, other than work, early in the morning. :)
These have absolutely no added sugar of any type, but I didn't even notice as I had some super flavorful strawberry sauce. That recipe is the next in line to be posted! If you want, you could add a teaspoon or two of honey or sugar or whatever you like. It shouldn't affect the pancakes.
100% Whole Grain Pancakes for Two
- Prep Time:
- Cook Time:
- Ready in:
- Yield: 6 5" pancakes
- 2 tablespoons old-fashioned oats
- 2 tablespoons whole wheat flour
- 1½ teaspoons baking powder
- 2 eggs
- ½ cup (113 grams) cottage cheese
- 3 tablespoons Greek yogurt
- 1 tablespoon canola oil
- 1¼ teaspoons vanilla
- Pour the oats in the food processor and give it a few pulses. You want them to be a little finer is all.
- Then add all the other ingredients and mix until thoroughly combined. There definitely shouldn't be any lumps. Because we're using cottage cheese here, I don't recommend making these without the help of a food processor or a good blender.
- Cook in a medium pan over medium heat. For me, it took about two minutes before I flipped them, and then another minute on the next side.
- They were really easy to flip, but if you normally use cooking spray, go ahead and use it here.

1. | virii | ||
Virii is in fact an INCORRECT pluralization of "virus", however, some retard keeps resubmitting it as the plural form. 1 4m k00l, 1 c4n wr173 l33tz0r 'virii' 1n v15u4l b451c 5cr1p7.. ph33r m3h.
2. | virii | ||
Incorrect pluralization of "virus", used by people who want to make themselves look smarter. "My computer is infected with virii! I am also a moron."
May 14, 2003
add a video
3. | virii | ||
Virii defines a category of software that is comprised of viruses, worms and trojans. The general usage of the word is to describe a collection of software.
Virii itself is a plural word as there is no need for a singluar form because the more descriptive singular form of {virus, worm, or trojan} could be used. Virii is not the plural form of virus (which is viruses). Virii has nothing to do with biological viruses. Correct: I have a huge collection of virii!
Incorrect: I got a virii on my computer. |
4. | virii | ||
virii is a variant plural of the word 'virus'
It is important to note it is actually incorrect and the correct plural for 'virus' is 'viruses' People use virii instead of viruses because a) it looks 'better' or they want to appear of as smarter b) they don't know it is incorrect c) it sounds 'better' when said (vi-ree) compared to viruses (vi-rus-is) If you use 'virii' people will announce 'your' mistake - use virii/viruses Virii can often reproduce itself via email attachments.
5. | virii | ||
Plural form of virus. This person's computer was loaded with virii.
6. | virii | ||
The form virii would not have been a correct plural, since the ending -ii only occurs in the plural of masculine and feminine words ending in -ius. For instance, take radius, plural radii: the root is radi-, with the singular ending -us and the plural -i. Thus the plural virii is that of the nonexistent word virius . The form viri would also be incorrect in Latin. The ending -i is normally used for masculine or feminine nouns, not neuter ones such as virus; moreover, viri (albeit with a short i in the first syllable) is the plural of vir, and means "men."
excerpt from reference.com/browse/wiki/ Plural_of_virus I have both strains of the retard virii
7. | virii | ||
Refers to people from planet virus. People who use this word usually received their GED two years after graduating from Sally Struthers University with degree in TV/VCR repair. I was using my computer and noticed i was infected with some virii right before i was abducted and was anally probed.

FOXBOROUGH, Mass. — The Miami Dolphins are finishing their fourth straight non-playoff season. The New England Patriots have clinched their fourth consecutive AFC East title.
So what's there to play for in Sunday's regular-season finale?
Plenty, both teams say.
For the Dolphins, it's a chance to end on a high note with a third consecutive win and stop their streak of three losing seasons.
"It means a lot," running back Reggie Bush said. "It's about finishing strong. It's about winning that last game and, obviously, carrying that over, hopefully, into the next year."
For the Patriots, it's a chance to avoid a third mediocre performance in a row and move up into one of the two AFC spots that earn a first-round bye.
"It's our last opportunity to make improvements before the playoffs," quarterback Tom Brady said.
New England (11-4) goes into the weekend with the possibility of being seeded in any of the top four AFC slots.
It would be eliminated from the No. 1 position if the Houston Texans wrap it up by beating the Indianapolis Colts in an early game but would still begin its late game hoping to climb from the third to the second position. It would have to win while the Denver Broncos are upset by the lowly Kansas City Chiefs.
"I'm sure we'll be aware of that," Brady said, "but I don't think that changes what our goal is for the weekend." Continued...
That goal is the same as it is every weekend —to win — no matter who the opponent.
Patriots defensive tackle Vince Wilfork knows that if the Patriots play the way they did in last Sunday's 23-16 win over the weak Jacksonville Jaguars, beating the Dolphins (7-8) will be tough.
"We're going to expect their best," he said. "Last week we expected Jacksonville's best and they gave us their best. They played very, very tough. They didn't play like a team that only won two games, I'll tell you that. We're expecting the same thing here."
The Patriots struggled to beat the Dolphins when they met Dec. 2 in Miami. Dan Carpenter's 33-yard field goal with 8:28 left cut New England's lead to 20-13. But the Patriots held the ball for more than seven minutes before scoring on a 20-yard field goal by Stephen Gostkowski as they held on for a 23-16 win.
"We played them pretty well, given how they were playing coming" into the game with five straight wins, Bush said. "We can learn a lot from that last game."
Especially when it happened so recently.
"It's pretty easy to get up to speed when it's only been (four) weeks," Brady said. "It is pretty fresh in our mind of how they played us, the things they do well. Certainly, they gave us everything we could handle."
But more than just team accomplishments are at stake in the finale.
Bush needs 40 yards rushing to reach 1,000 for the second straight season. Brady needs three touchdown passes to become the first quarterback with 35 in four different seasons.
Players should have plenty of motivation even without those individual accomplishments. Continued...
"When I signed on to coach the 2012 Miami Dolphins I knew there were 16 regular season games to be coached, and I have to have the same focus and our staff has to have the same focus and same sense of urgency (as) when we opened the season in Houston," Joe Philbin said. "There shouldn't be guys talking about what I'm doing New Year's Eve."
The Dolphins posted convincing wins in their last two games against Jacksonville and Buffalo. But they were eliminated from playoff contention a few minutes after their 24-10 win over the Bills when Cincinnati got the last AFC playoff berth by beating Pittsburgh.
Winning on Sunday would end the Patriots chances of getting a bye, but Dolphins center Mike Pouncey isn't dwelling on that.
"We don't really know their playoff schedule," he said. "We know ours."
The Patriots followed their win over the Dolphins with a 42-14 rout of the Texans. But then New England lost to the San Francisco 49ers 41-34 after falling behind 31-3 and trailed Jacksonville 10-0 in its next game. So they're focused on getting off to a good start, no matter how it affects the playoffs.
"You want to be playing well so you have confidence going into the playoffs," Patriots coach Bill Belichick said, but "whatever we do this weekend isn't going to have any bearing on what happens in the playoff (game) the following week. What's going to have a bearing on the playoff (game) is how we prepare for that week and the opponent and our scheme and our execution."
The Patriots miss the receiving and blocking of tight end Rob Gronkowski, sidelined the past five games with a broken left forearm. Even if he returns, he may not be at full strength.
Without him, Brady has been sacked 11 times in the last four games after being sacked only 15 times in the first 11. Now the Patriots must stop Cameron Wake, who has a career-high 15 sacks.
The Patriots don't expect him to stop charging just because the Dolphins won't be in the playoffs.
"We expect every opponent we play, each player and each team, to perform at their best," Belichick said. "That's what we prepare for — their best performance, not a poor one." Continued...
And the Patriots usually succeed.
"They've dominated this division for over a decade," Philbin said. "So if you can't get excited about playing the best in your division to close out your season, then you're not a professional football player."

The Book of Mormon Girl is a story about leaving behind the innocence of childhood belief and embracing the complications and heartbreaks that come to every adult life of faith. Joanna's journey through her faith explores a side of the religion that is rarely put on display: its humanity, its tenderness, its humor, its internal struggles. In Joanna's hands, the everyday experience of being a Mormon-without polygamy, without fundamentalism-unfolds in fascinating detail. With its revelations about a faith so often misunderstood and characterized by secrecy, The Book of Mormon Girl is a welcome advocate and necessary guide.

Cat Herding requires a wide range of skills -- Corey brings years of experience and a skillset that pretty much defines "wide-ranging": an instructor of Japanese swordsmanship who designs tabletop role-playing games and writes reasonably competent ottava rima, he remains bemused that an English degree has been useful in this industry. He writes about software development management, swordfighting and games on his website, and at FreshBooks, is expanding the hotshot development team to meet the challenges of the company's rapid growth. He has pretty crazy ideas on what makes a great software team, mostly involving "Making Sure Developers Are Insanely Happy".
Jeff is a consummate perfectionist and ace designer. Jeff-fun includes creating awesome web sites, hockey and snowboarding, where he will not hesitate to take on any double black diamond he comes across.

Sometimes he stares at the wall for hours on end.

Fresh out of the University of Waterloo, equipped with a math degree and boundless enthusiasm, Grace is our first FreshBooks employee dedicated entirely to helping our customers.

When she isn't answering your questions, you can usually find her playing outside, talking to strangers, playing for the Argonotes or making her co-workers groan with her witty one-liners. She's game for anything and flies by the seat of her own pants because she knows life is short. After all, time flies like an arrow and fruit flies like a banana.

Owen arrived at FreshBooks HQ with nothing but assorted piercings and a beautifully streamlined head. He's useful in that his head reflects light around the office, handy in our dark Canadian winters. His black leather jacket cannot be removed from his body without invasive surgery, and he feels no pain but the pain of changing requirements. He also writes software.
Tim's mesolimbic pathway is constantly flooded with dopamine when he's at FreshBooks — That is to say, he's elated to be here. Studying and working in a variety of fields and locations on planet Earth has allowed Tim to develop a sharp brain for interpersonal communication and a knack for empathy. Add his experiences in tech into the mix, and you've got yourself a support rock-star. When not figuring out the functions and bio-pathway of the Inward Rectifier Potassium Ion Channels, you can usually find Tim perfecting techniques on the piano, volunteering and singing in a choir, playing video games, practice photography, blog, watching Disney movies, and drinking down a pint of Dole Whip with friends.
Beatriz brings to the table a wide range of experience in the IT/Tech world. As a self-proclaimed geek she loves technology, media and video games.

In her spare time she enjoys baking and creating new desserts – a passion she discovered at age 6. When she's not baking up a storm, Eti spends her time online, reading (anything non-fiction) or playing cheesy games.
With a background in both accounting and computing, and an appreciation of fine writing and sentence structure, John can wax poetic about revenue recognition models and scripting languages, but strangely enough is still struggling to find a truly appreciative audience. When not computing, John plays saxophone with the Markham Concert Band and the Argonotes, occasionally plays himself with the Markham Little Theatre, and plays Dad with his kids.
Ashok spent the last 12 years in London, including a worrying amount of time studying performance modelling and queueing theory at Imperial College. When not working or noodling with semantic web things, you'll typically find him drinking craft beer and ideally listening to the blues.

She is known as being highly organized and once received a label maker as a present - which is still one of her favourite gifts she's received.

In his free time you can find him doing creative things like dancing, drawing, writing poetry, or playing some sort of stringed, folk instrument.

Amanda hails from the world of online publishing and has been a champion for good ideas since well before the advent of Twitter. When she's not comparing FreshBooks to a cultural revolution on par with the invention of the wheel, she's likely recounting the outcome of her latest culinary experiment or relating an intrepid tale about her adorable terrier Rupert. Always armed with a notebook, her anthropology background comes in handy when she's laying down the story of the moment. One of her short-term goals is to make a nice picnic quilt for Leafy and all his friends.
An Expat from Ohio, Jason spends his days as a Linux SysAdmin and his free time enjoying a myriad of hobbies.

After a summer of exploring various parts of South East Asia and being chased down a mountain by a pack of monkeys, I decided that my goal after graduation would be to find a company and job that can provide similar high concentrations of awesome and here I am at FreshBooks. I am a huge fan of movies, music, and taking photos of all the places I have gotten to see while travelling around the world. I recently graduated from the University of Toronto with a major in psychology, so helping people is a thing I love to do and technology has always been a passion of mine (so feel free to come chat with me about the latest and greatest!). A quick fun fact about me is that I have been awarded the Eagle Scout rank; an award only given to three percent of all scouts around the world and gives me something similar with Neil Armstrong and Steven Spielberg.

Nox has a strong case of "shiny ball syndrome", she loves learning about new things. This has led her through jobs in social media, corporate communications, community and product management and even video game design.

She's thrilled to be part of the automation team, writing code to find bugs in other code. If she were an episode of Sesame Street she would be brought to you by the letter P: programming in Python, photography, puppies (especially her dog Kali), preparing for obstacle races and pretty spicy food. You can find her here, she'd love to hear from you.

She graduated with a BFA in film from Ryerson University, but quickly moved into software due to a love of rapidly evolving technologies (including--but not limited to--robot uprisings, sentient internets and living above and/or below the sea).
Emerging from the flaming wreckage of a startup that failed despite itself, Chris brings his sparkling personality and years of coding skills to FreshBooks, to say nothing of his burning desire to learn ALL the things.

In his last position Jeff headed up a team at Panvista Media developing mobile applications for large law services firms such as Norton Rose and Paul Hastings. In his spare time...well Jeff has 3 kids and has no spare time so we'll just leave it at that.

Steve is a Mobile Developer hailing from sunny Southern Ontario, where his family lives and still operates a family farm. Steve occassionally visits family there to see some sunlight and operate heavy machinery. Steve has a potentially unhealthy addiction to gadgets and new smartphones, so it only makes sense that he makes mobile apps at FreshBooks. While not cooking Italian or playing video/board games, he has also spent time at a large broadcast television company, a gigantic agency, a small print-to-web company, and an even smaller tech startup that no longer exists. Steve graduated from the Software Engineering program at the University of Western Ontario.
Whenever there's something amiss,
Always remember to follow your bliss.
You never know where you will go,
Not until you are open to grow.
Every step that you take on your way,
Will enrich those around you everyday.
Open your mind and you'll see,

As the winds of her life shift again she is excited to transition from sails back to sales with the FreshBooks team. Outside of work you can find Lindsay down by the water regaling others with her seaworthy tall (ship) tales... All puns, sadly intended.

A cunning and ruthlessly logical creature, John joins FreshBooks after a long period of personal projects and existential speculation. He holds a degree in Mathematics and Computer Science from Waterloo, yet his interests are vast and seemingly unrelated, including: robotics, food, physics, philosophy, movies, and so on. He is a lover of animals, considerer of implications, and guzzler of milk. He is very excited to be part of such a dynamic and diverse team, although he is admittedly terrible with remembering names. Apparently, he also writes autobiographical passages about himself in the third person.
As soon as Donald stopped chewing pencils as a kid, he started using them to write badly spelled stories. He kept on, though, and once he was all grown up (and could spell better), he founded a magazine and a small press. He later went on to co-author a couple of bestselling business books, after which he joined a start-up that he helped build into a leading boutique training organization for entrepreneurs. Before joining FreshBooks, he spent a few years running his own freelance and consulting practice, writing for and about entrepreneurs and coaching them too. His first job ever was as a child actor on SCTV, playing the illustrious Earl Camembert Jr. After hours, he can be found writing fiction (like this) or on a tennis court, in a pool hall or eating something exotic.
Lindsay often feels caught in between eras, adrift in the fabric of space-time. While she enjoys the poetical lyricism of today's young Canadian folk artists, she finds herself belting out Joplin's high notes when she thinks no one is watching. While she loves FreshBooks, she also loves not-so-fresh books, having amassed a modest collection of 18th and 19th century books. She loves her Blackberry, but still can't figure out where she's supposed to put the quarter. Lindsay has a passion for engaging people and learning their stories, whether in person, on the phone, in an email, or in the pages of an antiquarian book. As a dual citizen of both the present and the past, she knows the one thing that never goes out of style is a good character.

Andre is a QA Analyst with a software engineering background. Hailing from the beautiful but often-battered 3rd Polish Republic, he can take a punch and keep on swinging.

Strapless Sweetheart Gown with Beaded Waist Style WG3436
This was my dress for my May 4th wedding and it is so classically beautiful. I felt so beautiful in this dress and got endless compliments on our wedding day. It's very comfortable!! It's understated yet elegant and the lace is absolutely gorgeous. The beading under the bust is one of my favorite parts of the dress.
I had bought a different Davids's bridal dress originally but felt that it wasn't quite "the one". I returned it and bought this one and as soon as I tried it on I fell in love. It actually was everything I thought I didn't want in a dress so I was apprehensive about putting it on. But as soon as I did that all went out the window!!
I would recommend having the bra pads sewn into the bust (ask alterations) so that you don't have to wear a strapless bra. Trust me, it's so much more comfortable and you still get great support and shape! It bustles beautifully, as well.
I've already sent it in for the preservation of it. Can't wait to get it back!! :)
May 19, 2013
One and Done
I knew I wanted lace and thought I wanted something with straps but pulled this dress to try on anyways...and FELL IN LOVE! It fits like a glove with no alterations needed (Size 4) and for the price you can't beat it! I would suggest the fit and flare slip as well, it really makes the bottom "poof" out enough to be more comfortable to walk in.
April 10, 2013
Perfect for me
I couldn't imagine that it can so beautiful. I ordered it online so I was little worried. But its better then I wanted. I lost a few pound so I will have to go to the seamstress. But anyway I'm happy with this dress and very excited to wear it on my wedding day.
March 26, 2013
Perfect dress
I think it is discontinued and i hope not! This was the first dress I tried on and the one I ended up getting. Fits perfectly and I don't even need any alterations! And at the price, you can't beat it!
