my favourite one?

at a meal, there were the usual sugary dishes.......that glaze for
beets, and carbs and such

not a problem, i work around it, but they had a broccoli dish there! wow!

so, i ate the meat, a bit of carbs, avoided the glazed beets lines,
salads, veggies AND this incredible broccoli dish

but......... i also know to TEST after i eat there because ya never
know......... and my bg was 23.? or over 415

what?????

shoot a huge correction

ponder over what DID i eat?

call mom, tell her what an EXCELLENT broccoli dish that was, and would
she kindly send me the recipe

1 cup broccoli
1 cup mayonaise
1/2 cup sugar
....................... got it
sigh
