'Tis the season for desserts made of fruits. I have a refrigerator with rhubarb, strawberries, and rhubarb just waiting for me to enjoy. Today's plan is to make a small strawberry-rhubarb pie, but some bars are also a possibility. Still, I will have to maintain some restraint.
Last fall, the physician's assistant at the Health Center told me that I needed to reduce my cholesterol OR take statins to do so. I decided to go the non-chemical route and really worked hard for the next six months. Success! But the food on our 10 day cruise in the Netherlands was fabulous and did a bit of damage. The ice cream was particularly delicious. My pants are a little tighter than they were when I left. We start the weekly forest walks on Tuesday, thank goodness!

I really need to get back to watching my cholesterol too - it won't be checked again until fall but it is near the area where it really needs watching
