Guest guest Posted May 7, 2011 Report Share Posted May 7, 2011 I think Splenda is okay.. not sure what Sucralose is though... It's the stuff with aspartame in it that will worsens our numbness & tingling stuff from what I've been told. I'm pretty sure if I use Sweet 'n Low, my feet get really wicked numb.. but then anything with MSG in it will set my feet really really wild! HUGS |)onna A blender? What's that?

Guest guest Posted May 9, 2011 Report Share Posted May 9, 2011 So behind in emails...you make your own bread/flatbread? I am in awe of you, n! that is a labor-intensive project. Do you have a bread maker, or just do it, the 'old fashioned way'? Either way, I'm impressed. Your fruit smoothie sounds wonderful! We adore mangoes here as well!Love to you,KateTo: MSersLife Sent: Fri, May 6, 2011 6:23:33 PMSubject: Re: Dinner?/sounds good to me/ snack suggestion 1) in blender, put one package of most any frozen fruit--I love mangos;2) add about 1-2 cups of non-fat, unsweetened yogurt;3) add non-fat milk if needed to soften the mixture.May be made with any frozen fruit; any flavoring may be added;if it appears to need sweeting, I recommend Sucralose or Splenda,the kind in the bag, though the little envelopes are great for tea or coffee.If the frozen fruit is too hard and chunky, one can add warm water andsome dry milk instead lf cold milk as one blends it.I love just mucking about and playing in the kitchen; I make whole-grain bread, too, even flatbread!Love to you, Akiba, and to Robbin, and to everyone here with us,nTo: MSersLife Sent: Fri, May 6, 2011 3:03:17 PMSubject: Re: Dinner?/sounds good to me Well that would certainly be awesome!
