Looking for warmer weather
Dinner was chicken and noodles homemade. It was served with a little bit of mashed potatoes. I enjoy it all. The food was good. The cookie dessert was a disaster because mom and I tried making sugar free oatmeal cookies from home ingredients. It did not work, It always seemed to be lacking something to give it the extra zing. Tonight mom is with the television and I am on the computer. Tomorrow morning will be the last of the big freeze weather. The rest of the week will be a bit warmer. The weather seems to be getting better with each day.

Did you try substituting Splenda for the sugar in the recipe? Splenda is pretty good and it comes in a bag and you use it the same as sugar. But I have noticed that "lack of zing" with most all of the sugar free or "no sugar added" products. I once had Christmas dinner with the in-laws. The father had made a cherry pie for dessert. With the first bite, everyone realized that he had forgotten to put the sugar in. It was really sour without the sugar. I took a spoonful of sugar from the sugar bowl, lifted up the pie crust gently with my fork and sprinkled the sugar over the filling. It now tasted just fine.
By the way, whatever happened to global warming and the melting of the polar ice caps and all that stuff. I know, global warming is coming and it will be here in full force in July and I shouldn't complain about the cold because when it is hot and steamy this summer I will be wishing that it were cool again.
