Alone In The Kitchen by Lorraine Brooks

ALONE IN THE KITCHEN by Poet Lorraine Brooks

I went to the kitchen to get me a snack,

And then I thought, no, better put the chips back.

I’m home in the morning, home all the day,

And I can’t keep on eating and eating this way.

I’ve got to stay healthy, in spite of the news,

Because food and drink are so easy to abuse.

I’m bored, and I’m worried, as all of us are,

I’m eating my Skippy right out of the jar.

But I didn’t give up, or succumb to defeat,

And I started cooking good foods I can eat.

Fresh fruits and vegetables, legumes and beans,

Broccoli, carrots, and cabbage, and greens.

I made a quiche, but it wasn’t high-fat,

I learned how to substitute this for that.

I made a cheesecake with Splenda instead,

And there was no sugar in my banana bread.

I made a stew, and some soup, and some fish,

Without adding butter or oils to my dish.

I’m doing my best, I‘m not perfect, but still…

Instead of much salt, I use spices, like dill.

And I’m doing Zumba online, for an hour

So I don’t lose all of strength and my power.

So I would suggest, while this quarantine goes,

Get out of your jammies and put on some clothes.

Do something healthy, creative, and such

And the time spent alone won’t bother you as much.

For me that was cooking, for you maybe not,

But let’s take advantage of all that we’ve got.

One day this all will be part of the past,

And we can enjoy all our freedoms, at last.

ANSWER: C). A combination of both A and B.

Insulin is a hormone that helps your body use glucose (blood sugar) for energy.

Noodle Shop Mysteries Author Vivien Chien Guests on April’s Diabetes Late Nite

Author of the Noodle Shop Mysteries Vivien Chien guests on Divabetic’s Diabetes Late Nite podcast scheduled for Tuesday, April 14, 2020, 6 – 7:30 PM, EST.

Noodle Shop Mysteries

Vivien Chien first started writing simple stories about adventures with her classmates when she was in elementary school. As she grew up, her love of books and the written word increased, leading to the attempt of her first novel at age 16. After many struggled beginnings and several different genres, she found her passion in the mystery world. She currently lives in Cleveland where she is hard at work on the fifth book in her Noodle Shop series and writes side-by-side with her toy fox terrier.

Speaking of noodles … you’ll find glass noodles on the menu at many popular Asian restaurants. Glass noodles are known by different names including cellophane noodles, mung bean threads, and mung bean noodles. While glass noodles seem lighter than other types of pasta, they have about the same amount of carbs as regular spaghetti and more than whole-wheat spaghetti. It takes about 54 grams of dehydrated noodles to yield a 1-cup serving of prepared glass noodles. This portion contains 47 grams of total carbohydrates, according to the U.S. Department of Agriculture. Because the recommended dietary allowance for carbohydrates is 130 grams daily, you’ll get 36 percent of your daily carbs from one serving of glass noodles.

Glass noodles are gluten free, fat free and a 1/2 cup serving dishes up 8% of your daily requirement for iron.

If you have diabetes, you can still enjoy glass noodles. Just be sure to keep an eye on your portions.
