A friend of mine called last night.  She says to me, "I have flax meal and peppers.  Do you want me to bring them over?"  I thought, "What's happened to my life, that my friends think they have to bribe me with healthy ingredients to get an invite to my home?"

Turns out she wanted me to show her how to make the raw crackers I'd made for her a few weeks ago!  Of course the ingredients she brought--flax meal and peppers--were only about 1/3 of the ingredients, and she'd have to use my dehydrator--she doesn't have one--but that's just fine.  I'm more than happy to share!

She was very excited about the whole process.  I let her use my new Japanese (and very sharp!) chef's knife, my food processor, and my dehydrator.  She became very fascinated and then very focused on making sure the mixture was spread really evenly on the Teflex sheets.  REALLY FOCUSED.  I wanted to move her along, but she really seemed to be enjoying herself, so I didn't want to take that from her! : )

When I got home today, I nibbled a small piece--apparently teamwork makes tasty raw crackers! lol
