Spoonful of Sugar Free

Registered Dietitian

100 Spoonfuls

By

Wow. This is my 100th post. I know there are a lot of people out there who have written hundreds or even thousands more posts than me, but 100 is still a milestone.

I have learned so much throughout my short time of blogging, and have met so many great people. I’d like to thank all my readers for their support, and I hope to continue making great sugar-free recipes for you one spoonful at a time.

Now in honor of my 100th post, I am going to host a giveaway! The lovely Caitlin from CSN contacted me to offer won of my readers a $35 coupon to any of the CSN stores. CSN has over 200 stores online where you can buy anything from modern furniture, to cookware, to fitness equipment! I’m sure you will be able to find anything you want on this site.

  4. Fun entry: send me a picture (or blog) about your favorite food! For more information, click here. ( I have been wanting to do this post for a while now, but I didn’t get quite enough pictures to do so. Thanks to everyone who did send their pictures!)

Please leave a separate comment below telling me each entry you did.

Giveaway ends in one week (February 8th). Good Luck!

Now here is a personal, somewhat ironic, story about me and the number one hundred.

I was in 1st grade I think, and the 100th day of school was approaching. 100 is pretty cool for a 1st grader. We were going to celebrate the day with stuff relating to 100. I can’t really remember what, maybe some crossword puzzles and math stuff. Anyway, everyone was asked to bring 100 objects. Can you guess what I brought?

100 sugar cubes.

Ha! I know. It was pretty neat, though, because I glued them together to form a sugar pyramid. Fun! Too bad I don’t have pictures to show you. This was in the year without digital cameras, so I have no idea where those lost pictures are…

    • Hi Vanessa!

      You aren’t able to eat sugar anymore? What are the symptoms? I am happy to help you with any questions you have! Free feel to send me an email any time ๐Ÿ˜‰

      • I just found out that I am allergic to eggs, dairy, wheat, corn, green peas, peanuts, soy, tomato, beef, orange, garlic and mustard. I am also trying to deal with Candida right now, that does not allow me to eat sugar or anything yeasty. So now I am starting a new chapter in my life and trying to learn how to eat/cook all over again. I would love any suggestions you may have!

      • Wow. That is horrible! It makes it almost impossible to go out to eat, but that’s ok! homemade food tastes better, anyway! Take a look at my recipe tab. If you have any q’s or recipes you love (only you can’t eat any more) feel free to shoot me an email! I might have a recipe that isn’t on my blog!

  13. Congrats on 100 Alex and I’ve enjoyed reading all your posts. I can’t wait to see what’s in store for the next 100!!! Thanks for sharing all the yummy recipes. Oh, if I may suggest Vanessa check out Ricki at http://www.dietdessertndogs.com/ Ricki has a couple links to her Candida recipes. I have been following the anti-candida diet for a couple of years and she has some great recipes!! Hope it helps & good luck. Hang in there….it does get better & easier and I will never go back to the SAD (standard American diet) way of eating!!

  17. Congratulations on getting to 100- you have been a huge help to me. I used to eat grains and sugar, but have cut them out recently. You are the only blogger out there I have found who is truly sugar free like me- (most add stevia or use lots of honey). Thank you for what you do.

    I subscribe in google reader. But that is one of the ways listed to win- so yeah. I just wanted to comment and tell you how much I appreciate your blog.

  19. Congratulations on your 100th post!!!! ๐Ÿ™‚ I remember being in 1st grade, and we did a 100th Day activity too — I did 100 stickers. ๐Ÿ™‚

    One of my favorite eats is my Pumpkin Cranberry Nutty Cookies. ๐Ÿ™‚ Do I need to personally send you a picture, or just give you a link??? If just the link, here it is:
