Thinking about sweet

Weight lifting and knish-paperwork in the morning, chores and food shopping in the afternoon, a visit from the HVS in the evening.

TODAY'S COOKING
Granola: The HVS only wanted salad, so I didn't want to make a big feast she may or may not have been in the mood for, but I knew granola would hit the spot for take-away, and B & E nibble on it with yogurt. Cut the sweetener from 1 1/4 cups of brown sugar and maple syrup to just 1/2 cup of maple syrup, still definitely sweet enough. Amazing how commercial granola is essentially candy. Next batch may try just 1/2 cup of brown sugar, or 1/4 only of one or the other. Sweetener as flavorant (all the brown things) rather than just sweetener  (refined flavorless white stuff) is an interesting concept.
