With my husband being gone I decided to start taking online classes again. I don't find the classes themselves to be stressful. In fact, I find the actual "learning" end to be easy - but most of it is review for me. I do have...

Have you ever felt like some one you care about wants you to change everything you are for them, but won't change one little thing for you. I have changed how I dress, act, who I hang out with. Moved over six hundred miles away...

SpikeTheLobster What does your way of dressing have to do with anything? If they don't like it, they can close their eyes (or open their minds a little...). :)

SpikeTheLobster Love is the acceptance of the other person for who and what they are - with, of course, the possibility of agreed compromise over certain things if they're difficult, dangerous or affect the relationship badly. Love is giving, not demanding. If he wants you to...

I got a diabetes cookbook, and some of the recipes had sugar in them. Now I know that yeast needs sugar to grow, and so it is acceptable, but do they have to put sugar in spaghetti sauce, and other main courses? I would rather go...

Rocketj1 Sugar is not the enemy. The total carb count is what you need to be looking at. This is why some diabetics are now eating a tiny bit of regular ice cream instead of no sugar added ice cream. It sometimes has lower carbs to eat the regular ice cream.

ElicBxn I hear that if you put a little sugar in it cuts the acid. I never add sugar, never got adding it myself.

suspenseful That is the point. I mean why should they put it in spaghetti sauce or chili when that tbsp or so could be better put in a square? After all if you have a square recipe calling for 3/4 cups of sugar, and you divide the recipe into 36 pieces, a diabetic has one...

KissThis Well actually diabetics can have sugar as long as they have it in moderation. Depending on how much sugar a recipe calls for as well as how many servings a recipe is the amount of sugar won't necessarily raise the sugar level. Even products that say they are...

desertdarlene I don't get it, either. I can see a little tiny bit of sugar here and there, but all this high fructose corn syrup they put in some things is ridiculous. And, I can see maybe the equivalent of a tablespoon of sugar in the sauces because it will take some of...

danishcanadian Not knowing anything about diabetic cooking, I didn't know a thing about this until you mentioned it. I agree with you. We all like a little treat. Yes sugar is necessary, but why put it in food where it will not be noticed, when you can have an excuse to...

dragon54u I don't like sugar in my spaghetti sauce. They say it reduces the acidity but I think it makes it taste unpleasantly different.
