See my prior response. Plus, I'd point out that not everyone is always at
the computer and able to "promptly" respond to a question.

Dyan's original post said the new designs were under new releases. And that
there was a Halloween freebie for members. I guess it wasn't clear that she
meant the KustomKrafts yahoo group members. Took me all of about 90 seconds
to figure that out by hitting her website, going through a couple of pages,
and hitting the XS page button - which clearly has the sign-up block, along
with other links.

Sorry about your legs. Try giving yourself, and some others a touch of the
Buddhist patience.

Splenda not the same. Equal and Sweet & Low yes. That's part of why you
can bake with Splenda, it can be heated.

But, honestly, my DA, the doctor, has always asserted that it's much better
to use a small amount of real sugar (and take care of your teeth) than the
chemical sweeteners. And, I have to say, I hope all of us look as good as
her (and she doesn't exercise, beyond taking the dog to the doggie park).
Nor diet - though she isn't an overeater.
