One more comment about desserts

[Guest guest]

Well, I can't have gooey desserts anymore... but I *can* have a fair amount of

luscious meat along with wholesome fats (such as a juicy rare steak)... and I

consider that to be a fair trade-off!

A couple of months ago, I stocked up on meats that were on sale... round steak,

tri-tip (my favorite so far), chickens, turkeys (marked down after the holidays)

and pork. I haven't had to buy a lot of meat in the last two months because I

had so much stocked up at bargain prices.

Makes me feel like a good ol' hunter-gatherer, it does. My sig. other cannot

drive due to low vision, and he doesn't like food shopping that much, but it's

kind of a game for me, to feed us decently or better for less money.

I have sympathy for you folks who haven't eaten meat and a bit hesitant about

eating meat, but personally I've always loved the taste of meat (rare when

appropriate).
