Can you tell I'm too tired to sew tonight? Actually, I'm waiting on the dryer. My red batik was a bleeder so it's back in the w/d.

Nancy S, I think you sat last month out so you may have missed the article on artificial sweeteners. They taste sweet so your body releases insulin getting ready for sugar. No sugar arrives and the insulin is left free to wreck havoc on your body - think hypoglycemic type attack. If you need the sweet, the have the sugar. I like hot chocolate, but being a chocoholic, I have to put extra cocoa in mine - and sometimes a little milk to make it taste creamier.
