The Best Sourdough Starter Discard Waffle Recipe I Have Ever Tried

Tecito Time – Things to know

It hurts to hear it, but they’re finding that alcohol really does shorten your life and make you age faster – possibly even by 7 years, thanks to those pesky telomeres. 2 big glasses of wine per week seem to be the anti-aging limit.

Ultra-processed food also may age you – especially things like diet sodas, sugary drinks, baked goods, hot dogs and sausages.

I went on TV this week, what?!

What is “teflon flu” and what does it have to you with the pots and pans inside your oven (don’t lie, I know you store them in there)

Here are 13 señora habits that will make your home and life better.

Here’s what beauty we tried this week:

It’s plastic-free July, and we’ve fallen for Latina led beauty band Axiology. We’re basically best friends now and so they are giving our community a free tinted DEW multi-stick ($24 value) with any purchase from their website. (partner)

OG “Gardening Latinos” Cheech and Chong wanted us to try their Cruise Chews and I am really digging it. I take one 30 minutes before I go to bed, sometimes half if I just want to feel relaxed and not sleepy. Other gummies make me feel wacky – this one is just right. (partner)

On TIkTok: What’s underconsumption core?

Also, we are having a TikTok Live on Sunday at 6:30am / 9:30am EST alongside Charlene, a new amiga from our TikTok community who does sound baths. Sign up here and join us for 30 min. Let’s hang out, I’ll show you around my garden.

Recetas & Gardens

I ripped out all of my zucchinis because they all got burned in the scorching heat wave we’re having in California.

My blueberries are still going strong. They need a LOT of water and if you see your leaves turning brown, add a little sun cover. Raspberries are not thriving as well.

Last night I peeped a rabbit inside my tomato raised bed – that must have been one high ass jump.

If there’s one thing you need to start a garden in a small space – in my humble opinion – is a vertical garden.

One thing to do before you start your garden beds to keep gophers away is to use hardware cloth or wire mesh underneath the soil.

Here are 6 herbal mocktails from Herbal Academy for you to select from this week (partner)

Bramble Berry is having all of these nice clearance sales that would make great fall projects.

I have been trying to make waffles from sourdough discard every week (ish). I can’t believe how good this recipe is. It makes professional (Dennys lol) looking waffles if you have the machine.

Ingredients

¾ cup Sourdough discard (quantity flexible)
2 cups milk
2 cups all-purpose flour
2 eggs, beaten
¼ cup melted
salted butter
1 tsp vanilla extract
1 tsp baking soda

Directions

The night before, add the discard to a bowl

Pour in the flour, milk, and butter

The next day, it should look all fluffy and holey

Add the eggs, vanilla, baking soda

Add it to your waffle maker or add to a mason jar and save for another morning.
