Good luck with your new diet, Gina!

Misc.
I hope it goes well for you. I'm not sure what has prompted you, but I have cut down immensely on sugar and carbs since I became perimenopausal a couple of years ago. It did wonders for my mood swings, normally I am a very happy-go-lucky person, so when I became homocidal, that alone told me something was really WRONG!

If I do eat bread or pasta, I make sure it is whole grain, the same with the rice (I usually use basmati, which has a lovely nutty flavour, not so strong as brown rice, but it depends on the recipe)

I was walking, but...well...don't want to make an excuse, but it was winter, really still is, I guess, but anyway, let's just say I fell off the wagon!

I love your recipes, and I am very glad you are back. I wish you well, and please accept my sympathy for your grandmother's passing.

Sincerely,

Carolyn
