1 tsp lemon or alomond flavoring
2 tbsp water
2 1/4 cup all-purpose flour
1/2 tsp baking soda

Recipe Preparation
Place sugars, margarine and oil in a mixer bowl and mix at medium
speed until creamy. Add egg, banilla, flavoring and water, and mix
at medium speed for 30 seconds, scraping down the bowl before and
after adding these ingredients. Stir remaining ingredients together
to blend well; add to creamy mixture and mix at medium speed to
blend. Form dough into 24 balls using 1 tablespoon dough per ball.
Place balls on cookie sheets that have been sprayed with pan spray or
lined with aluminum foil. Press balls down evenly to 1/2' with the

minutes, or until cookies are browned on the bottom and lightly
browned around the edges. Remove cookies to a wire rack and cool to

Food Tips of the Week
Advice on losing weightMake sure that you drink enough fluids. Sometimes at some stage in a hectic work day, you feel you need food when in truth you may need a refreshing glass of water or cranberry juice. The feelings of hunger and thirst are somewhat similar, but one of them ends in weight increase and the other one leads to no damage.
The argument against low carb diets
Its extremely popular, but it is really safe for you?
Remember, one point that is often overlooked, it is very difficult (though not technically impossible) for vegetarians to adopt a low carbohydrate diet.
Even though there is anecdotal evidence that illustrates that reduced carb diets can help reduce weight, some of this anecdotal evidence has resulted in much debate between nutrition experts, and their relative safety has been brought into question
Foods high in flavonoids
(inlcudes onion, broccoli, kidney bean and basil)
The nutrients called 'flavonoids' which exist in these natural foods are believed to be good as cancer fighters.
Experts researching the medical effects of flavonoids think that they may well have numerous health giving capabilities, amongst them, anti-dermatitis and antioxidant properties.
Many are also low in calories, so you should add them to your diet system.
