From Wikipedia Article: Blog

"Scientists have long known the therapeutic benefits of writing about personal experiences. Blogs provide another convenient avenue for writing about personal experiences. Research shows that it improves memory and sleep, boosts immune cell activity and reduces viral load in AIDS patients and even speeds healing after surgery."



Very interesting I thought, however, one thing I noted this article traced the origins of blogging to online diaries. I'm arguably sure though it got it's early traction from IT people using them as a log to insure that members of software development teams would be on the same page while working on different areas of the same project. Cartoons, wave files, executables and then personal stories etc. followed to keep things lively then non work related diaries followed to become what we know as blogs.

Vegan Marshmallows
A Free and Open-Source Recipe
Fluff
The fluff part of this recipe was adapted from Jeanette Sutton's web site recipe for agar marshmallows at meatandeggfree.com. She deserves a tremendous amount of credit for this fluff, a key to marshmallow success. If you are looking for an agar marshmallow, try Jeanette's recipe.
5T soy protein isolate (available at many health food stores)
1/2t baking soda
1/2t cream of tartar
1/4t gum (xanthan, guar or acacia) I used guar gum.
3/4C cold water
Dash of salt
Sugar Syrup
1.5C raw sugar
1C light corn syrup
1/2C water
1T Genutine Vegetarian Gelatin
2t vanilla extract

Yes, there is a component to this vegan marshmallow recipe called fluff- some jokes write themselves. From a vegan marshmallow blog. What I learned: after a long, exacting, messy process you may be rewarded with 80 cents worth of vegan marshmallows for about 40 dollars.
