[Sca-cooks] Pattern welding meets cooking. . .

[Elaine Koogler]

Thanks! It should be ok if I use non-fat cream cheese. That's the big 
difference between Atkins and South Beach...the latter cuts out a lot of 
the fat. For example, instead of being able to eat all of the bacon you 
want, you can have a smaller amount of Canadian bacon, which doesn't 
have much, if any, fat. However, now that we're on "Phase 2", we can 
have some chocolate...there's a recipe for Pistachio Bark that I haven't 
tried yet, but sounds marvelous. And, best of all, I can have 
chocolate-covered strawberries. As I think I mentioned earlier, I think 
I've also figured out how to have Selene's Dreaded Chocolate Mousse. 
And...horror of horrors, the diet specifies that I must use dark 
chocolate! But what you describes sounds good, as well. One thing...what 
is stevia and where would I get it?

Will we see you at Coronation? I'm really excited...now that I've 
stepped down as a landed Baroness and have reverted to my former status 
of landless trash, I can do neat stuff again. Their Highnesses have 
asked me to herald Their evening Court at Coronation. It'll be good to 
dip my toes into those waters again. Also, I can cook again...cooking 
our Challenge of the Heart event on May 8.

Haven't seen you since forever...hope to see you soon!
