Sponsor Two:

Pen Again sent me a four pack of ergonomic pencils to try called Twist’n Write. They are number 2 pencils in fun glitter colors. The led comes out at the top by twisting the cap. Grandma opened these while I was away on one of my trips and was teaching my 2 year old how to use them. I was watching my daughter when I came back and she was trying to use them. She didn’t quite use them correctly but because they have such a wide handle they were very easy for her to hold and use.

I like them because I have quite a bit of arthritis in my right hand and using them correctly causes no pain. I just now noticed that the sides act as erasers. Wow, that’s pretty cool.

My Opinion: With all the controversy over High Fructose Corn Syrup and the nutrition of Whole Grains that I learned about at the Sara Lee Nutritional Summit, I can say this bread is good for you. It contains whole grain and does not contain HFCS. It was fresh and tasted great. I actually thought it tasted a bit like sourdough and I love sourdough. I think everyone in the family had a taste and were left wanting more bread. Does anyone notice the resemblance to Orowheat?
