Question about Cholesterol...
Ok, so I've been counting calories, watching my sodium, fat etc. but never really paid attention to cholesterol.

Attn Ladies: Awesome homemade "range extender!"
This is the greatest thing to have along in a large ziploc bag in the mini-van! It extends the range (number of miles) that you can drive before needing to stop and go to the bathroom. :happy: With all of the water I am drinking and my poor old bladder, it slows down my drive to visit #4 daughter in Chicago to stop and go…
