Recipe Found Here 

2 cups all-purpose flour
2 Tablespoons vegetable oil
1/2 cup salt
2 Tablespoons cream of tartar
Up to 1 1/2 cups boiling water (adding in increments until it feels just right)
food coloring

Mix the flour, salt, cream of tartar and oil in a large mixing bowl. Microwave water in a microwave proof measuring cup until it bubbles. Add food coloring TO the boiling water, then into the dry ingredients.

Stir continuously until it becomes a sticky, combined dough. Allow it to cool down then take it out of the bowl and knead it vigorously for a couple of minutes until all of the stickiness has gone. *This is the most important part of the process, so keep at it until it’s the perfect consistency!* If it remains a little sticky then add a touch more flour until just right.

Hard-Boiled Eggs

Recipe Tips Found Here

Eggs
Water
salt/vinegar (optional)

Place eggs in a saucepan and cover with cold water, so that the eggs are covered by at least an inch or two of water.

Adding a teaspoon of vinegar to the water may help keep egg whites from running out if an egg does crack while cooking. Also some people find adding 1/2 teaspoon of salt to the water helps prevent cracking as well as making the eggs easier to peel.

Bring water to a rolling boil; immediately turn off heat. 

Don’t let the eggs continue to boil. Sulfur compounds in the yolk turn an ugly shade of green when eggs are exposed to high heat.

Keep the pan on the hot burner. Cover the pan; let eggs stand in the hot water for 11-12

Drain eggs and cool in ice water. To peel crack the eggs slighting all over and run under cool water while peeling. Refrigerate hard-boiled eggs for up to one week.

Rule of Three in Label Reading

To find out if a food is a good source of fiber:
It should have at least 3 grams of fiber per serving.
Remember to shoot for at least 25-30 grams of fiber each day.

To find out if a food is a low sugar food:
For every 100 calories, it should have less than or equal to 3 grams of sugar.

Examples:
If the food has 200 calories per serving, it could have up to 6 grams of sugar per serving.
If the food has 300 calories per serving, it could have up to 9 grams of sugar per serving.
If the food has 500 calories per serving, it could have up to 15 grams of sugar per serving.

Also check out the ingredients listing and make sure that "sugar" doesn't fall in the first 3 ingredients. Sugar can also be listed as sucrose, high fructose corn syrup, fructose, honey, etc.

To find out if a food is a low fat food:
For every 100 calories, it should have less than or equal to 3 grams of fat.

Examples:
If the food has 200 calories per serving, it could have up to 6 grams of fat per serving.
If the food has 400 calories per serving, it could have up to 12 grams of fat per serving.

Also, remember that all fats are not created equally. Try to choose foods with monounsaturated fats such as canola oil and olive oil. Try to limit foods with saturated fats (butter) and trans fats (listed in the ingredients as "hydrogenated" oils).

IN THE BEGINNING

God created the heavens and the Earth. And the Earth was without form, and void, and darkness was upon the face of the deep.

And Satan said, "It doesn't get any better than this."

And God said, "Let there be light," and there was light.

And God said, "Let the earth bring forth grass, the herb yield seeds, and the fruit trees yield fruit," and God saw that it was good.

And Satan said, "There goes the neighborhood."

And God said, "Let us make Man in our image, after our likeness and let them have dominion over all the Earth."

And so God created Man in his own image; male and female created he them.

And God Looked upon Man and Woman and they were lean and fit.

And God populated the earth with broccoli and cauliflower and spinach, green and yellow vegetables of all kinds, so Man and Woman would live long and healthy lives.

And Satan said, "I know how to get back in the game."

And Satan created McDonald's. And McDonald's brought forth the 99-cent double cheeseburger. And Satan said to Man, "You want fries with that"?

And Man said, "Supersize them." And Man gained 5 pounds.

And God created the healthful yogurt, that woman might keep her figure that man found so fair.

And Satan brought forth chocolate. And Woman gained 5 pounds.

And God said, "Try my crisp fresh salad."

And Satan brought forth Ben and Jerry's. And Woman gained 10 pounds.

And God said, "I have sent thee heart-healthy vegetables and olive oil with which to cook them."

And Satan brought forth chicken-fried steak so big it needed its own platter. And Man gained 10 pounds and his bad cholesterol went through the roof.

And God brought forth running shoes and Man resolved to lose those extra pounds.

And Satan brought forth cable TV with remote control so Man would not need to toil to change channels between ESPN and ESPN2. And Man gained another 20 pounds.

And God said, "You're running up the score, Devil." And God brought forth the potato, a vegetable naturally low in fat and brimming with nutrition.

And Satan peeled off the healthful skin and sliced the starchy center into chips and deep-fat fried them. And he created sour cream dip, too.

And Man clutched his remote control and ate the potato chips swaddled in cholesterol.

And Satan saw and said, "It is good." And Man went into cardiac arrest.

And God sighed and created quadruple bypass surgery.

And Satan created HMOs.
