Good Friday 2010

Today is the day that acknowledges Jesus' death on the Cross. On Sunday, believers celebrate his Resurrection, and Easter Week concludes.

I have posted daily since the beginning of 2010, but I will not post tomorrow or Sunday in honor of Jesus of Nazareth and what He did for me, and all others. It just doesn't seem right to me.

I'll start up again on Monday, Dear Reader, and I hope you have a wonderful Easter Weekend! God bless you!

It comes in three flavors and has 3g of sugar, or 15 calories, per 8 ounce serving.

People seem to like it (I checked the reviews at Amazon for the Lemon-Lime (see package image here) but heck.  I'd rather have my own Limeade made just from real limes and stevia, myself. 

Still, it's great to see Stevia gaining market power out there.  Love that.
