[Diabetes-talk] Comments on two topics

Mon Jul 18 12:56:40 UTC 2011

Hi Mike,
I am glad you are on this list.
I am sure I will have questions.
I had a piece of cheesecake but watched everything else all day to plan for it.
The cheesecake was disappointing. It was a mix and it was very sweet with only three strawberries.
Yuk!
I am starting to save recipes again so there is hope.
Have a Blessed Day!

Colleen, N8Tnv;
