A few years back, I cooked up some acorn squash. Scooped them out, mixed an egg, some pumpkin pie seasoning, butter and brown sugar, poured it into a graham cracker crust and baked it.

Squash pie. Yum.

Well, most Atkins people I have met act like fruits and vegetables are toxic.

Well maybe you ought to try reading the book?! You think?

Those babies freeze up real nice too. I usually make about 4 loaves this time of year and freeze three of them. They are so moist when defrosted. Zuchini bread does nice in the freezer too.

Very helpful links, thank you.

The rise in the use of soy products might be a contributor to obesity, I think.

Mostly good, common sense here, except I'm not convinced that soy is such a good thing.

The Trouble With Tofu: Soy and the Brain

By John D. MacArthur

"Tofu Shrinks Brain!" Not a science fiction scenario, this sobering soybean revelation is for real. But how did the "poster bean" of the '90s go wrong? Apparently, in many ways -- none of which bode well for the brain.

Sorry, that was a typo. Just ordinary vitamin E and C. The alpha lipoic acid makes a much larger difference. When I was 30 I started getting skin tags, especially when I was stressed out. The alpha lipoic acid is shinking the skin tags. It seems to be very powerful stuff.

Oh man! You have it right. I could eat steak frites, wine, desert, cognac, cigar every day and not get tired of it. Best. Food. Ever.

[Calamari]

Yes, but I try to hold it to a couple of times a month!
