Oh, Consuela--what sweetener is used in those low glycemic load cookies, and what sort of oats?

Balls, ita, I was kind of hyperbolic, for which I apologize. It's just my regular oatmeal cookie recipe, but with white whole wheat instead of regular flour. I used brown and white sugar, and regular rolled oats. I'm not sure how to make a low-glycemic cookie that is at all appealing, because you still need a sweetener.

I feel really bad for misleading you! Wasn't intentional.

It strikes me that there must be people out there solving this problem, though. And now I wonder if my whole-wheat rasberry bars that I buy at the local health food coop have a lower glycemic load.

I currently make my oatmeal cookies with agave sweetener and 2 cups of slow cooking oats and one of fast oats, so that lightens the load already. I have seen recipes that call for steel cut, but I wonder if they require a soaking step.

I've never tried any of the other low glycemic sweeteners (well, enough stevia to know I can't tolerate it), though I do hear good things about coconut palm sugar.

So I'm going to try changing my flour and all of the oats to slow cooking for starters, and then investigate incorporating steel cut.

Speaking of steel cut, I am in my happy place--I made *so* much in my initial WTF? that I need to eat fast before it goes bad. No breakfast prep required for ages! Yay!

Also cooked up a bunch of brown rice, but I have no memory of decanting and refrigerating, unfortunately. Ah, well. Still need to find my groove with that recipe. I have whole wheat couscous to do in a pinch.

The Ezekiel low glycemic raisin bread isn't the total saviour I'd hoped for--it's not as moist as I like, and the slices are too thin. But it's still doable to grab as a snack. I wonder if "normal" whole wheat raisin bread is low glycemic index? Maybe I'll have that intermittently, instead of inhaling it like I normally do.

I'm not doing this to lose weight, but if my boobs should happen to get smaller, that would not be upsetting. They are upsetting in too much of my clothes right now.

you might try brown rice syrup, I liked it when I used it.

Bah. Intimacy only carries underwire bras. I know I am difficult but I'm not going to spend lots of money on something I won't wear.

Check it! The first all female, black flight crew on a commercial airliner in America! Cool. And both flight attendants were African American too.

To be honest, I don't know that I've even seen two women in the cockpit of a commercial flight.

Does agave have a more complex sugar than, well, sugar does?

I'd that from 2009, David?

I am trying to start the fly lady stuff.

do those of you that use her actually have a control journal? I am thinking that a control center on one of my fridges my work for me, but not something like she is suggesting that I would carry around in my purse, my purse is too full as it is.

Damn, and here I was getting intrigued that there's actually an Intimacy store in downtown Boston. What kind of lingerie store doesn't carry soft-cups?

To be honest, I don't know that I've even seen two women in the cockpit of a commercial flight.

I kind of hate how it's still always exiting to have a female pilot! Once, I can't remember if both pilots were female, but the main one definitely was, and the head flight attendant was a man, so the announcements were all unexpected.
