    Peanut butter fudge

    In my opinion these recipes should be checked first before they been published. The amount of sugar apparently is way over the top and they should be in proper measurements . Do you really like the comments as been seen earlier ? Please consider , as a lot of us are not familiar with your way...

    🇮🇹 Traditional Italian Almond Biscotti (Cantucci Toscani)

    I love biscotti , made this quite similar, not hard , but I would’t dip it anything , that for me would change the taste . It’s like dipping a biscuit in the coffee , never liked that . Thank you for sharing .

    Best Beef and Vegetable Soup

    I never make anything with seafood , fish , prawns, shellfish as I have an allergy to all of them and it is not too bad , hubby can’t stand it , so it really doesn’t worry me . It is amazing how many recipe’s been sent with fish etc .

    So so delicious chocolate poke cake

    You can not remove the sweetness what is already mixed in the box . For that reason I only use natural products , which do not contain any artificial colours or sweet nasty tastes . I know what to do and change the sugar to healthier items , but there are many people who do not know . Always...

    Shoppers frustrated over checkout practice in ALDI. Did this catch your attention, too?

That is their job and be grateful for that , if there are many people stealing items , the prices...

    coconut pie with a difference

    Another recipe too much sugar again , apart from the usual sugar , there is also sugar in the bisquick and the coconut . It would be better to put on some healthy recipe’s , our population is already overweight and the elderly people are often already type 2 Diabetic .
