The Goodie List

Baking Planning

The family discussions were had and the decisions are now made. We are open to using mixes and to reducing the number of items we are making if life gets stressful. I am still struggling with the balance between our traditional treats and living with a lower calorie diet. Should we just not make these items anymore? Should we find lighter versions of our treats? Perhaps it is all really just having one or 2 treats and not eating all that we might want. I want to preserve these food traditions for now, but no doubling the recipes!
