Wow, that was fast! Thank you so much. It sounds wonderful, but I will skip the alcohol.

Sorry the pink didn't turn out bright enough. My first try.

I finally got it to turn red, I hope that helps. I'm still trying to figure out this color stuff.

Hi, I found out if you hi-lite it the pink is gone and you can copy and paste to another program...........I just copied it with pencil and did it by long hand.
I don't have a printer and I will try it when it gets cooler.
Without the alcohol.
Thanks for a yummy sounding pie.
Hugs and God bless,
Judy

this sounds soooo good, but Marvin being a diabetic, I probably should shy away from making it. By the way, I think it's probably a typo, could the binegar be vinegar? or it could be some kind of liquor I never heard of

Flo, I'am a diabetic also and I'm always looking for a good sugar free dessert recipe.... if you have any please send them my why. And I'll do the same.

desertlilydarla · July 21, 2007, 01:50:41 PM

Flo, do you have any good recipes for sugar free cookies or cakes? I'am always looking for new recipes to add to my collection.......Or if anyone else now of any.

flo · July 21, 2007, 02:41:09 PM

haven't really looked for any, Darla, but if I do, I'll be sure to send them to you. I'm not really a big cookie maker except at holidays. I've been told to use my usual recipes but use splenda in place of suger. Have a friend that does that.

Darla, I am a diebetic and my wife has colllected and experimented with an awful lot of recipes that are sugar free. She orders sugarfree cookbooks, takes diebetic magazines on cooking for diebetics. I will tell her about your interest.

Those of us who cook for church dinners are always looking for food for diabetics. A few super cookie and/or cake recipes would really, really be appreciated.
