Diabetics R Us


I first heard of Nottingham Forest in a song sung on an episode of the TV show Frasier. Peace and prayers for you all. And best wishes for a happy birthday to Judith -- enjoy the feast. I love y'alll's avatar photo.
 
Yes that's Dennis Penny and Judith of course I'm not in the photo because I was on the other side of the camera.

It wasn't that I loved him like a brother we had become brothers and family.

Judith says thanks for the birthday wishes.

Ade cooked us a great meal but I am afraid to check bloods at the moment will leave it a few hours I think.
 
Yay, @JohnEGreen! Well done.

I have been cutting stew meat for vegetable soup. Not exactly a summery meal but a friend was talking about it the other night and made me hungry. I also chopped up an onion -- even sweet Vidalia onions make me cry.
 
We had Slammers for tea this evening, I right enjoyed the two I ate plus a little of the cauli broccoli gratin. Whoever said that LCHF is a restrictive diet is just potty.
 
Having done very little all day except finish one book and start another, I am now feeling bouncy and full of energy. But the only place to go is the grocery store, and in my present mood I would be sure to buy something good but not good to eat, so I will probably stay in. Anyway it's 29 degrees outside, at 8:25 pm.

I have had 2 bowls of homemade veg soup today -- enough nourishing food, I want chocolate!
 
Why not go to the grocery shop and buy stuff for wonderful creamy low carb chocolate truffles? Making them will give you something to do with your bounciness and you'll get to eat chocolate as well
 
Good afternoon.
I have been missing for a few days. Been busy with my family history and evaluating the trees of the cousins my DNA has been matched up with. Fascinating stuff. Also been busy with Wimbledon.
Hope you are all well.
 
Got a recipe?
Haha, looking for the recipe I discovered this is not the first time you want to make them. Check out post #3312 from 19 weeks 3days ago on this very thread
Found it by using the search bar for chocolate truffles, posted by member Antje77.

The recipe is easy: The ratio's are:
very dark chocolate: 100
butter: 25
cream: 75
plus cocoa or crushed nuts or whatever you like to roll them in.

Melt chocolate in butter. Let cool for a bit but not too long. Add cream. Let cool for longer intil you can make little balls or cut squares. Roll in whatever you want to cover them with. Lick hands and all used kitchen implements.
 
Sounds delicious. Thanks! I do something similar with dark chocolate, coconut, and almonds. And sometimes peanut butter.

Glad to hear you're OK. I always enjoyed my family research, looking through old courthouse records and finding distant cousins online.

I also caught a glimpse of Roger Federer on Brekkie @ Wimbledon this morning. I remembered him from maybe 5 years ago?
 
Ok I'll byte what the dickens is a slammer.

I got the idea at M&S but make them at home. It is cheese wrapped in (high meat content) sausage meat then wrapped in bacon. Lush

So ... it's a sort of banger slammer ... ? Sounds delicious!
