My wife and I bake a lot, one day at the grocery store I picked up a pound of sugar and had an "ah-ha" moment. I said to my wife, "We are going to consume this whole pound of sugar in the next month". We came home that day with Splenda and have never looked back. The holidays are around the corner, some of our favorite dishes are holiday ones. We feel so happy drinking hot cocoa and eating gingerbread cookies knowing that we left that pound of sugar behind on that epic day at the grocery store.
