(No I don't have it. Just a question that came to mind earlier).<br /><br />It depends.

So in essence, they are just the same as if you were to eat a low fat fish dish or lean steak. The proetin composition will vary a little, the...

Several reasons: 1) I get bored more on the bike, since my upper limbs are doing nothing and I find it less of an effort. 2) I find I can concentrate more on the msuic from my mp3 player on the treadmill, perhaps because I can often run in time to the beat. ...

I'd like for it to look cute and festive, with some sort of halloween design in it's appearance. Other than cupcakes/cookies decorated like jack-o-lanterns, can anyone give me ideas?<br /><br />Get normal chocolate biscuit fingers, but then make icing in various colours by adding food colouring, especially white and red. You can make pink icing to dip and coat the fingers in, then add red icing for the look of blood, or perhaps green for witches fingers.
