Default More on fruit and tortillas

I also find that I can make a nice little dessert tart by wrapping the fruit
in a tortilla with spices and sweetening and baking it. This is kind of an
improvisational thing, so it's kind of "do your own thing." If you get the
low-fat tortillas, even us perpetual dieters can have the occasional "pie."

Default fruit tarts made from tortillas

Having lost nearly 40 pounds by following a low-fat balanced diet supervised
by my dr, I regard all this low-carb stuff with a large grain of salt.
As far as other "diet" plans, all I can say is "been there, done that, lost
some, gained it back" After the time I have spent learning better habits, I
think I am going to have a lot easier time keeping it off. Believe it or
not, doughnuts and brownies no longer even LOOK good to me.
Anyway, if it works for you, fine, but don't jump on every bandwagon that
passes by.

Dave Barry is a scream.
