If I could, I'd do a back flip for you in celebration. I might drink a margarita in celebration while I'm here in Little Cayman for you. Not exactly in the same spirit, but it will save you the calories. ;-) Celebratory hugs and kisses! Shirley Heidi–You are my idol with your 60-pound weight loss!

This is the main reason why I like make our sweet treats from scratch, because if I have a hankering for something sweet, then I have to spend the time making it (usually, the craving just goes away before I do that, thus sparing my waistline!). It is a great self-control mechanism! ;-) I haven't made any Twix since Easter, and if I could still eat the store-bought Twix, my impulsive nature would probably get the best of me and I would have them much more often. I am now up to a 60 pound weight loss and I definitely contribute part of that to being lazy... to lazy to bake! :-D Shirley,

I think I saw the headline for your Twix cookies when you posted and purposely stayed away. Self preservation, you know? Now that I've seen the photo ... my heavens! I'm actually grateful that Schar is not sold near me and that I'm on vacation or I'd be very tempted to make those cookies. Like your pre-Udi's-ear description. I've heard that Rudi's bread and one other kind (don't know the name) are just as good, but have not tried them yet. Too cute on Sam liking the chocolate sandwich cookies with the big "S" on them. As someone whose name starts with an S, I can identify with that. They would seem special made just for me, too. ;-) Shirley We had the shortbread cookies at our tea event and I enjoyed them.

I buy that in bulk through Amazon as well. No other noodles compare (at least not that I have found). However, Schar does have a little noodle called Annellini, I believe, that is similar to an orzo. They are itty bitty and perfect for soups. They are probably smaller than a pencil eraser. They cook in just 4 minutes. i just boil some of my chicken stock, throw some veggies in for about 15 minutes, add the noodles and some shredded chicken and spinach or kale at the end for a few and it is a super easy dinner. Kids will eat it all too - so extra bonus! By the way, great minds think alike. We used the breadsticks at Christmas to make for holiday crafts with the kids too. Dipped them in chocolate and then all different toppings! k i agree with you on the Tinkyada! I buy that in bulk through Amazon as well. No other noodles compare (at least not that I have found).

I wish I could find their stuff around me but sadly not yet. I hope they start having their products in more and more stores, I would LOVE to be able to try something besides the bread!!

Thin, crispy and bland enough to go with any topping. Sort of like a thin Club cracker, but not fragile-thin like Nut Thins or other rice-based crackers. The best part is they are the most reasonably priced GF cracker I've ever found -- $3.59 for a 10-ounce box at my local grocery store. Schar Snack Crackers are the best ever.
