Today’s Haiku:
They have vitamins!
They are so vital for health!
Feh. Veggies bore me
Yesterday’s Menu:
Grilled steak with Montreal Steak Seasoning on it, no sugar yoghurt smoothie, two hard boiled eggs, some low fat cottage cheese, a cheeseburger sans bun, and a Scotch and soda at Bluestate.

Could be worse. I’ve finally discovered the world of no-sugar-added products- Peanut butter made with Splenda, chemical strawberry yoghurt, blue cheese dressing made from artificial flavoring, creamer, and more Splenda, and no-sugar chocolate mouse. Lets hear it for the diabetic-food section at Giant.
Today’s Recipe: Chocolate Popsicles
- Mix 1.5 cup skim milk, 1 Tbsp cocoa powder, and 3 packets Splenda
- Pour into popsicle molds or an ice cube tray to freeze

You can make your own yogurt. It tastes 1000 times better than store-bought, and is easy and as fat-and-sugar-free (or -laden) as you choose.
Boil milk – skim, whole, or 2%, depending on what you want…I use organic whole – in a cast-iron or (preferably) ceramic pot. Once it boils, let it cool to room temperature. Pre-heat your oven to 100 degrees F. Add one teaspoon of yogurt (again, I use organic, unflavored, whole milk kind with acidophilus but it doesn’t really matter). Put in pre-heated oven, turn off the oven. Leave over night, and awake in the morning to home-made yogurt goodness! Also in the morning, flavor it as you like.
