Thanks for all the sweet comments about Joshua's cheesecake. :) We've had many suggestions that Joshua should go into the cheesecake-making business (usually after people have tried a piece of one he's made!) but in order to make money on them, we'd have to charge a lot since the ingredients are expensive and they can be rather time-consuming to make... I do usually get my cream cheese for a very good price, but chocolate (good quality chocolate) and whipping cream and chocolate graham cracker crumbs... :)

Well, I'd like to say that I exercise -- but it's not really consistent enough to be considered exercizing. :P In the summer, I do get out on walks several times a week (and usually walk at least a couple miles) but not in the winter. (Tania, I think it depends on how cold of weather you're talking about... I have bundled up a 1-year-old when it was in the 40's or so... it just depends on how windy and how long you plan to stay out there!) I also like to mow the lawn (push mower), and I think that lugging laundry down to the basement to be washed and then out to the clothesline to be hung (while chasing runaway toddlers) should be considered exercise, right? ;)

But anyway, the best way to enjoy cheesecake and not gain too much weight is to eat small pieces... and limit it to one piece a day or something. We put the cheesecake slices (individually wrapped) in the freezer and so it's not like we're eating the whole cheesecake in one week or something... :)
