hey!

Not sure if the Dunnes Stores in Kilkenny sells Splenda but Boots in Kilkenny definitely does, and the Atkins bars etc. Haven't tried them myself yet though...

jennifunk: A really handy cookbook is '500 Low-carb Recipes' by Dana Carpender. The recipes are very basic, you'd have most of the ingredients already and lots of them are quick to make. I've found it really good for general day-to-day eating - rather than special-occasion stuff, not that I really cook for many of those! - and it's really kept me from getting bored and eating the same thing over and over. I got mine in Waterstones in the Jervis Centre but I've seen it other places too.
