hey I'm also curious about your diet and excercise stuff.
I work out like.. 5 times/week and my BS is out of control. I'm afraid to give insulin when I work out due to lows... and then if I don't, it's still super high! Do you just eat beggies and protien ??

Hi Chef Libby....have you ever used the sugar free syrups to flavor whipped cream? I am worried the liquid will keep the cream from stiffening.

I have been using the Archer Farms brand SF hazelnut to make an afternoon iced coffee. I have seen the large bottles of DaVinci SF raspsberry and vanilla at Marshalls and Home Goods.
Thanks for all your cooking advice,
Hope all is well with you.
