There is no sugar, and they taste like regular chocolate. I love them!! It's great when I have a craving.
Now, that I'm in my new role as web support/help desk...I have my own desk and this means I'm not running around like crazy in the day. This means I can wear heels again!!!
I'm currently reading 4 books. This is not me at all... Normally I read two at the most. I've just had such a hard time escaping into a book. Maybe it has something to do with many changes in my lift this past month. I've had to completely change my eating habits, which has been hard but easier than expected. I'm currently in a new department at work, and began training today. I'm now in reservations and Web Support. I've had family come a stay for a week which held me back as well. My shift has changed at work...so it's many little things.
Anyone who knows me, knows I love pink. My glucose monitor that the doctor gave me is black, but on the box it said available in other colors. So, I went online and ordered the pink one!!!
I saw my doctor on Friday and she confirmed that I have Hypoglycemia. Which means that my blood sugar drops low, and when I have sugar it goes high. Basically, I am not a diabetic but if I keep eating sugar I will be within two years. I've come to terms with it. It could be worst. I'm not on medication and I can control it with diet. At first it was overwhelming because everything I ate had sugar in it. So, I went grocery shopping to see what I can find. There is actually a lot of stuff that you can buy with no sugar. My main concern was rice pudding. It is my FAVORITE dessert...and I found some with no sugar. It tastes great too. So, that eased my worries. Now, I need to find a great lemon meringue recipe....
Have you ever been in the mood to read an amazing book, but can't find it? That's what's happening to me now. I started Peony in Love and I was really enjoying it, then the plot changed and now I'm not motivated to pick it up. I moved on to "Into The Wild" I finished it, and it was good but it was verbatim of the movie. So, I still don't want to pick up Peony, I'm going to take a quick break from it.

I really enjoyed this novel. It is the third Austen novel that I read. I find her language a little hard to understand at the beginning because I'm trying to figure out all the characters and how they are related or associated with each other. Once I understand the characters it gets much easier.
In the second half of the novel, I was getting really scared that Anne would marry Mr. Elliot. I knew there was something about him that I didn't like, and when Mrs. Smith explains about his past I was really happy that Anne was advised of his character. Anne was thinking that it would have the same name as her mother (Lady Elliot) but she really didn’t feel for Mr. Elliot. I think Anne thought that it might be nice to marry, and she had little hope that Captain Wentworth would forgive her, never mind love her again. I felt Anne’s pain when she’s waiting for Captain Wentworth to fall in love again. She was wondering if it would be Henriette or Louisa. Can you imagine loving someone and then waiting for them to love someone else? You know you made a mistake, but think you can never make it right.
I thought it was really strange that all the characters seem to forget that Anne was engaged to him. The talk to him getting married, and needing to find a wife as if Anne was never married to him. No one ever thought to ask her how she felt about him being around all the time. When Louisa had the accident and Captain Wentworth was trying to do everything he could for her, Anne was trying to not feel hurt that he might love her. I just kept thinking, PLEASE do not marry Mr. Elliot.
Lady Russell really thought she was doing what was best for Anne. You can really tell that she truly loves Anne, she is obviously her favorite. She turns to Anne for her opinions. Mary’s husband married her after Anne turned him down, this is a little strange to me but I know that was common in their day. How strange it must be to have someone propose to your sister, she says no, then he asks you.
I really enjoyed the novel. I thought it was great. You can really tell how important social networking is. Many of these families only have their social life to look forward too. I’m ready for my next Austen!
