Guest guest Posted February 26, 2005 Report Share Posted February 26, 2005 Thanks Gretchen, I am going to have a look at the recipe in the 4 corners book on Amazon as you suggested, I don't suppose it would work with unsweetened Soy milk would it ?

They have one in Guilford that is pretty close to me and I just found out that they are going to build a brand new one right across the street. Can't wait for that. There used to be a K-Mart there and they pulled the whole thing down. Not sure what else is going to be going in there, but should be a great new shopping center - right across the street from Shaws - competition makes for great prices I will look there for the yogurt. I just found the DaVinci syrups at TJ Maxx today - so I'm all set Where are you from Stacey?? Barb in NH Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Just the water selection is staggering! Probably won't get up there until the summer - my friend will come down for a visit at the end of April, probably, and I was there just after Christmas.

I lived at 16 Hollywood Avenue from 1966 to 1978, then at 336 Kenmore until 88 or so or more. Started on ton Parkway two houses south of Alameda on the west side, just don't remember the number as I was only three when we moved to Hollywood Ave. My brother and his family still live in ton on Hillcrest (off Hillside). People named Hoops lived in 16 Hollywood before us, not sure if they were there in 1950, however. >Left at the end of 5th grade.

Wonder if any of the same teachers were there... Mrs. , Mrs. Muller, Mr. Caeten, Mrs. Aiosa, they could have been there. Ahh, memory lane. Have you ever gone to the ton memories website? www.douglastonmemories.com It has people from all different time periods. I'm listed in the directory, as is my brother, and there are pictures and such too. Too wierd. Really, really small world. Stacey Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Guest guest Posted March 18, 2005 Report Share Posted March 18, 2005 Very interesting article. The people in the study ate three 6-oz. servings of yogurt a day. That's quite a bit. I eat one 4-oz serving most every day, but then I'm not losing any weight. To me, yogurt is filling and satisfying. Maybe it kept these people from eating more fattening foods. But that wouldn't explain the loss of the belly fat. Sue > > Yogurt May Help Burn Fat, Promote Weight Loss > FOX News - USA > By Warner.

Guest guest Posted March 19, 2005 Report Share Posted March 19, 2005 Wonder if it holds true if you eat full fat fage greek style yogurt as is my first choice for yogurt. I really don't do low fat anything if I have a choice as I've found all of it lacking in flavor and mouth feel. Stacey Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
