10 RHONDA BRASSEAL With the seasons comes change The year I began first grade, the landscape of my world changed. Until then, I’d lived in unlettered bliss. My Grandma Hanks’ house: full of nooks and crannies; ornate with European finery, yet warm with her baking and songs. My Grandma Collins’s farm with chickens, pigs, cows, horses, and gardens, poke sallet, homemade berry jam, and hot, buttered biscuits, hugs, and kisses. I had not even attended kindergarten. I’d stayed home with my Mama, little sister, and new baby brother. There our neighborhood overflowed with playmates, mud holes, wild flowers, fruit trees and climbing trees, swing sets and hedges to hide in. I owned only church clothes and play clothes. I knew how to hide my eyes and count to 10 for hide-andseek. I could run fast enough to catch a lightening bug and hold still enough to drop it in a jar. When summer heat overwhelmed me, I could sit under the window unit with a glass of Kool-Aid and some cookies until the gusts of cool, autumn air began to toss colorful leaves about. Nothing held me from bounding through our screen door and joining the leaves, reveling to express myself with silly songs. I needed only to tell Mama how cold winter was causing me to feel, and she would skillfully tuck away my chills with a soft blanket and allow me to hibernate for as long as I wanted. No one lifted a finger against me when the thrill of spring jostled me loose, offering me warm sunshine in which to grow and green grass to feel under my feet. Then one morning, in one of the uniform rows of desks in Sister Monica’s first-grade classroom, I took my seat. Mama watched from the doorway. I tucked my red and blue book bag under my desk, looked at Mama, waved. She smiled and waved back. Then she was gone. And though school things were much better than bad, as Pooh would say; and though I am eternally grateful for my education, I'm glad that I learned early in life to play in leaves and appreciate a good mud pie. Then I could gather them and feel their brittle edges as I crumpled them in my hand.

Put a silk flower in the center and serve with a trowel. Now available at rhondabrasseal.com By Tammie Smith MEDIA GENERAL NEWS SERVICE www.columbianprogress.com Celeste Cooper usually reaches for a little packet of the blue stuff or the yellow stuff to sweeten her coffee or tea. Sugar substitutes are known by the color of their individual packets. The blue stuff is aspartame — Equal. The yellow stuff is sucralose — Splenda. “They taste about the same,” said Cooper, a registered nurse and certified diabetes educator who has diabetes. Being able to have a sweet drink helps her feel less deprived. “You don’t feel like you are giving up anything; that is the goal,” said Cooper, who works at St. Francis Medical Center outside Richmond, Va. Millions of Americans, while trying to lose weight or dealing with diabetes and watching their blood-sugar levels, turn to sugar substitutes to get the taste of sweetness. The sugar substitute market is expanding, as is the competition for market share. Sweetener products sold for tabletop use are part of the product portfolio of For those with a taste for life and leisure MEDIA GENERAL SYNDICATION SERVICES sweeteners war of the Sugar substitutes spur a debate about what’s right, what’s good and what works sugar-substitute companies. The companies also compete to have their products in commercially produced foods. With so much at stake, there has been a sweetener war of sorts going on. The company that makes Equal sued the makers of Splenda over advertising that claimed Splenda was “made from sugar so it tastes like sugar.” Since Splenda hit U.S. tabletops, it has grabbed significant market share from Equal. The parties agreed to settle the case last year but kept the terms secret. The Sugar Association also sued Splenda’s maker. Splenda has since modified its advertising to say “But it’s not sugar,” but the company has also countersued the Sugar Association, claiming a smear campaign. Not to be left out, the Corn Refiners Association, tired of high-fructose corn syrup being badmouthed, has gone on the defensive with a television advertising campaign. Some have suggested that high- fructose corn syrup, a sweetener used in dozens of processed foods, is contributing to the obesity epidemic, not Not bad but not sugar, testers say Most of the artificial sweeteners available for home use do well at sweetening beverages, but they can’t handle the heat of cooking or baking, or they deliver results with a lot to be desired. Splenda is an exception, able to withstand high cooking temperatures and maintain its sweetness. But does it pass the taste test? An informal poll of co-workers who tasted chocolate-chip cookies made with Splenda, and similar cookies made with regular sugar, showed that they overwhelmingly preferred the cookies made with sugar. They found the Splenda cookies acceptable. “Needs sugar,” said one tester. Though none was told which cookies were which, everyone figured it out fairly quickly. The cookies with Splenda had more of a cakelike texture and were soft, while the cookies made with sugar were brown and crunchy. The Splenda cookies were made with a recipe from the www.splenda.com Web site. Though the Splenda folks say the granulated sweetener can be substituted 1-to-1 for sugar in some recipes, the packaging notes that the texture of foods will be affected in some recipes and suggests replacing less of the sugar with Splenda or using a Splenda blend available at stores. just in the U.S. but all over the world. Added to the all the company bickering and posturing is the debate about the safety of artificial sweeteners, and whether, as one study suggested, sugar substitutes may promote weight gain. So what’s a consumer who just wants a little sweetness in their morning coffee to do? “Any form of sugar, whether it’s corn syrup, high-fructose corn syrup, sugar, brown sugar, is certainly not helpful,” said Lise Gloede, a registered dietitian and president-elect of the Virginia Dietetic Association. “We can document the negative effects on blood sugar, weight gain, cavities on the teeth; so any form of it really is something to look out for. You really have to look at all forms and be able to cut back on all forms.” As for the sugar substitutes — don’t overdo it. “They are chemicals,” Gloede said. “You want to use them in moderation. ... If you know you can’t stop at one or two diet drinks, you need to be careful.” Cooper tells her clients not to be so focused on “sugar free” labels when evaluating foods. “You’ve got to remember that Market Fresh Meats Family Pack GROUND BEEF. . . . . . . . . . . . . $ 1 99 lb.
