Private joke, people — private joke.

it’s great that you share your family recipes and experiments. i understand the challenge in dealing with the fatty and the sugary stuff when it’s sooo enjoyable just to eat!

i’m only starting my kitchen experiments myself, but with aspartame’s possible links to cancer i’m learning to use muscavado and less of it instead, that is if and when i can.

… (just passing by…)hehehe

I’ll try this recipe for him. Thanks for posting.

Have been reading up a lot on the internet about aspertame as a sugar substitute .

Guess what? i have come across quite a number saying aspertame aggravates diabetic rashes. To test, we eliminated all aspertame from hubby’s diet for 3 weeks. Skin cleared up some and there is less itching. Now, he has limited himself to about 3 diet sodas a week.
No choice as coke zero doesn’t use zero. haha!

Been using zero instead of splenda since the experiment. Any idea if this is good for baking?

Tried stevia but you can’t quite catch the “sweetness”? its bitin.

Thanks for info and support, Lydia!
Yes, necessity is the mother of invention – isn’t that what somebody once said? so we keep experimenting…

Thanks all for suggestions on how to reduce the fat in the desserts. Had my GB taken out last year.

There’s a lot going on this weekend-

Hubby and i are going on a date to the mafbex food show at the wtc [ until june 22 ] 10am to 8pm then moving on to the Legazpi night market in Salcedo street from 4pm to 11pm only tomorrow, Saturday. This is the only Saturday night it will be open as part of San Lo’s business week celebration.

Have never gone but it promises to be fun and full of food and drinks – both organic and junk!

You can pick up clothes, bags and second hand books, and -it might interest you to know that there are jewelry sellers and one that has anting-antings!

Enjoy!

I’ll keep my eyes open for that book. Thanks!
