lph, I applaud your considerate solution!!! I'm so happy she was pleased!

As another one who doesn't eat sugar/low-carbs, I know how hard it is to have to sit and watch other people eat. Eating together with folks is supposed to remove barriers to socializatoin, and not being able to participate always makes me feel a bit alienated. I'm always super happy when there's fruit around and I can take part in an event.
