    People wont listen - rant

    Daisyduck, that's a wonderful recipe. Thanks for finding it. My Mum, who was Italian, used to make this for us when we were little. It was so delicious. And inexpensive to boot. I'm definitely going to bring some memories back with this. And low carb too! Wonderful x

    People wont listen - rant

    A lady in the cafe yesterday seemed proud to tell anybody around her she was a diabetic whilst tucking into a plate of chips. And when her friend went off to pay, she tucked into her plate of chips too. What can I say. X

    Cappuccino coffee good or bad?

    That's what I thought. Until I bought myself a nespresso machine. I can't live without it now and love my coffee choices. It doesn't have to be an expensive one but think of the savings you would make not buying Costa. I hope you find your solution. X

    Are you soaking your feet in salty water? If you do it everyday it works and softens nails and skin. Rub some nice coconut cream/ lotion into your nails and feet too. X

    Impact and value of apple cider vinegar tablets on levels

    I have pickled dill with my cheese most evenings. It is very vinegary. No sure whether it works or not but since low carbing my tastes have changed and I now crave vinegary food. The last time that happened was during my pregnancy! I suspect though that if you "listen" to your body, it may...

    So true! I have made almond shortbread biscuits, almost biscotti and almond muffins. They are all dense and bit like depth chargers and never look light and fluffy as in the pictures. But they are the nearest thing to my comfort eating so will keep trying and experimenting. Any good bakers out...
