I am just as addicted to carbs as an alcoholic is addicted to booze. One slip and it easily becomes a slide. Lately I have been dreaming about marzipan for some reason. The temptation is severe.

TOTALLY AGREE.
Managing alcoholism would be easier than try to stay low carb. People are careful to not offer booze to an alcoholic, but think nothing of offering cake, or cookies to a carbaholic.
I was once able to get a 3# tin of almond paste. No sugar, had a to add all ingredients to make the marzipan. That store closed long ago. Maybe an online source ?
I go off the rails if too many carbs pass my lips. |
