Hope you guys enjoy, was glad to be able to get this video out for the Holidays! Here are some of my fav keto holiday desserts I've created- th-cam.com/play/PLDA690SIIES1PNnQ0SFesdSYcOWpzCxwK.html
Holy keto fudge, Batman!! I was expecting a basic fudge recipe with maybe some walnuts tossed in, especially at 9 months pregnant. You are definitely like the Energizer Bunny, so don't ever call yourself lazy again like you did when you didn't grab some peanuts to add to the peanut butter batch. Looking forward to making this fudge; I think I'll try the Almond Joy first. But I'm more looking forward to hearing that baby has arrived! 🥰
@@KetoUpgrade Can relate~ especially when it's what you do for work/fun/hobby/life. I've always felt like- no matter what it is- I could make it, enhance it, adjust it just a bit more & anything less is me being lazy or halfway doing it. We humans can be pretty rough on ourselves. *That being said, when I do take my time & go the extra step, it usually IS even better~ sooo...there's that😂
I'm hosting a family Christmas eve dinner this year and was literally just searching for a sugar free fudge recipe. You came through for all of us once again! You're looking great and excited for your new baby to come soon! I have 5 grandchildren and they are truly a blessing
I really look forward to you doing the Hershey's fudge!! I'm not a huge fan of fudge of too sweet fudge, but I absolutely fell in love as a child with the Hershey's fudge!!!
Thank you, this was so helpful!! Haven’t made fudge in years…but I’m definitely going to be making some this weekend. They all look delicious, but especially the peanut butter!
I bet your customers are sad to lose you! I have been craving Andes for weeks, so mint would be my choice right now. I can't have the salted caramel chips in the house. They trigger me. None ever made it to a recipe 😛 Hope you are feeling well. I had the best posture with my last one, he kept a leg in my ribs and my only chance at some relief and breath was to never slouch. I send up well wishes daily!!
Love the andes candies, one of my favs. I'm feeling fine, trying to stay in a good position by using my exercise ball. Hoping he will come soon. Thanks for the well wishes.
Hi Alycia, just want you to know what a fan I am of your channel. Really enjoyed learning from you. Watching the fudge making video this morning with my 1st cup of coffee. My one question is, you mentioned that you had a blog. Or, adding a recipe to your blog. But I don’t see the name of your blog anywhere, and have looked it up under Keto upgrade, but I’m finding nothing can you help me out and let me know the name or the address of your blog love following blogs for recipes and other things you might post. Really appreciate you and excited to see your baby… Or hear the news of the birth. Also, wanted you to know I think you and your husband are Darlene couple. You can tell he really loves you and support you. I think that’s wonderful. You deserve the best! Merry Christmas!
Thank you for all your hard work doing the experiments. This helps us so much with not needing to waste these constantly rising prices for the ingredients. Best of luck with your delivery. Merry Christmas and Happy New Year. Again thank you❤
Oh my goodness is this Delicious! I made the peanut butter, subbing 3 oz peanut butter chips for the white chocolate, added chopped nuts. Made the chocolate with all dark chocolate chips. It is a different texture than the peanut butter, so when you layer pieces of chocolate and peanut butter, then slice, you have Reeses cup fudge easy peasy. I don't know how to post a pic of it. I made your sweetened condensed milk and let it set in the fridge for 2 days. I just can't tell you how good this is. I have been keto/ now low carb starting 5 years in January. Your recipes are the absolute best, and I have tried hundreds! Sending you and your family joy and happiness! Thank you for all you do❤
Thanks for all the variations, I'll have to try them in 2023. I already did a version with semi-sweet Lily's a couple of weeks ago with your keto sweetened condensed milk recipe. It's pretty much the same as the fudge I use to LOVE when I was not keto. Thanks again and Happy Holidays to you and your family! :)
I've been thinking of you. I was wondering if you've had your baby yet! wishing you all the best. Thank you for your recipes, always! Merry Christmas!!
Excellent video choice! So happy to see it since my FUDGE CRAVINGS are hitting me in full force! I would love to see a fudge video in the future on using baking chocolate bars instead of pre-sweetened chips. I'm not an erythritol fan and it would be great to have some choices in sweeteners.
Wow these look amazing! I made two kinds for my Christmas gathering: 1) White Chocolate Macadamia Nut with roasted macadamia nuts & 1/2 vanilla extract & 1/2 butter extract, 2) Chocolate Peanut Butter with semi-sweet chocolate chips & peanut butter topped with Choc Zero Peanut Butter Chips & flaked salt. Thank you for the inspiration!
Yeah they may only let me wait so long with me being of bariatric age and obese but hopefully he will decide to come before the complications are too risky to let me go any longer.
Thank you so much for taking the time to do this so close to your due date! My family will enjoy these recipes. Best wishes for your delivery! PS, I hope you are having that baby!!
Hi there! I loved your Condensed milk recipe. I've made keto versions before but this was the best one. I did substitute half of the cream with coconut cream. I do that with all the condensed milk that I have made. I used it to make peanut butter fudge. I'm sure it will taste great. Thanks again.
You mentioned on a video that Big Lots had Splenda brand Allulose cheaper than you can buy bulk. Mine had the same deal as well and I asked if there was more in the back. Yes was the answer. So you might find they have much more than you thought.
I'm in Canada and found a package of Lily's chocolate chips in a health food store for $11.99. Yeah, I left them there. I found a double size package of Krisda's "chocolatey" chips at Healthy Planet for $7.97. Im going to try them first in cookies, because I think that will give me a good idea of how they taste and how they melt, before I try them in fudge. And when making the condensed milk, could i use powdered Swerve instead, and not have that crystalize?
Good idea, bummer you don't have bake believe. Even powdered swerve will crystallize unfortunately, might not be as noticeable though since it won't be big crystals. I used it in my lemon bar recipe as a test and it worked but because there is less volume my bars were very short.
First off, thanks for putting in the work and sharing it with us. These recipes are nothing short or delicious. For some reason, half the time we do this, the fudge doesn't set up but stays in a gooey, semi-malleable stage, even if we stick it in the freezer. Do you know why this might be happening?
You're welcome, thank you, so glad you enjoy! It probably all depends on the type of keto chocolate, I've been finding lately that not all keto chocolates are good for certain things. The choczero chocolate chip make a super runny ganache which is usually just equal weight chocolate and heavy cream, super simple but not with keto ingredients, very frustrating when you are trying to make recipes you had figured out and then they don't work when you go to make them again. Luckily the fix for the fudge it is to just rewarm with more chips in it to get it more solid.
@@KetoUpgrade Thank you for a very fast response, it is much appreciated! We will give that a shot (adding more chips) and see what happens. Thanks again!
Oh, you wonderful, marvelous, phenomenal, amazing gift from Heaven! Thank you!!! A million thanks are not enough! I’ll definitely be making at least one of these. Wishing you and your family a very Merry Christmas and anxiously waiting for the big announcement that baby is here. Blessings to you all! ❤❤❤
The chocolate fudge with walnuts that was your recipe was great I made a coconut condensed milk, using allulose(non dairy). 😋 I warned my family, only one or two ( gastric issues).
I would definitely like for you to make a pecan sticky bun recipe for Christmas. I'm wanting to get the pecan sticky bun flavored keto chow powder but I figured I can make my own instead.
So much work and effort on your part to give us such great gift options. Thank you. I have a couple different cases of Lily's choc bars. Not the chips/pieces. I know in some regular baking, you can't swap chopped bars for chips. Do you think in this fudge, it will make a difference between chopped bars and baking chips?
I'm not sure if it will work or not. I was actually gonna try it then didn't end up doing any. Maybe tomorrow if vann doesn't come I'll do some work in the bakery.
Aww thanks. Lily's is what I used for the white chocolate peppermint fudge and it was too soft. So I would cut the sweetened condensed milk down a little.
Sweetened condensed milk from the store is only milk and sugar. Maybe the extra ingredients in your sweetened condensed milk is why the fudge was soft in some situations?
I love your recipes and mean no disrespect, but I have been making keto sweetened condensed milk for several years and have always used powdered monkfruit and erythritol sweetener. It never crystalizes on me, but I also start by melting the butter then adding the heavy cream and sweetener.
@@KetoUpgrade Thank you! I can't wait to try this! BTW, I love your videos and am sooooo happy I found you! I have recently been diagnosed with a nut intolerance and was so happy to find recipes without almond flour! Another question.... I love peanut butter and want to make PB fudge using the PB extract I just bough from Olive Nation. Which recipe would I use? Maybe you could do a recipe for all of us PB lovers who can't eat nuts anymore.
@@nancyzell You're welcome! So glad I can help. I would say do a straight white chocolate fudge and add the extract to that. So the white chocolate peppermint one but obviously not the peppermint white chocolate.
Can I live in your bakery? Also, I have some new challenges for you: - mucha buena or the pulverized cookie - florentine cookies (without the honey) - graham crackers - baklava - kunefeh Thank you!
@@KetoUpgrade You must be so desperate to meet him. And in a couple weeks, you'll barely remember a time when he wasn't there. OH! They have a sucking reflex, let him latch on your nose, it feels funny. And sniff his neck for me. Nothing like sniffing baby necks lol
Great video. Thanks for the hard work you're putting into all the recipes! About the chocolates you used, I'm concerned with using these so called "keto friendly" ones from the supermarket. I've found that many contain sweeteners that still spike insulin and are known to be just as bad as sugar (like maltodextrose). Would you consider making a video to show how to make chocolate from scratch with just cacao powder and other basic ingredients?
Lily's and baked believe do not contain any ingredients that should spike your blood sugar. No maltodextrin, maltitol, sorbitol, xylitol or isomalt. I've made it but it is a pain in the butt. Just cocoa, coconut oil, powdered sweetener, extracts and liquid stevia.
Mmmmm!!! Thank YOU!!! A question, please? Victoria's Keto Kitchen made sweetened condensed milk with 2 ingredients, heavy whipping cream, and allulose. Nothing more was added. Your recipe calls for more ingredients. Hers seems so (maybe too) simple? Yours is just a few more ingredients. What's your opinion of the two? I ask you because you are the Baking Expert and are known for it! Lol! Yes, you are! Thank you if you do get the opportunity to answer! I understand if you don't because this was put out a few days ago, and I am guessing 'baby' has made their appearance by now! SOOOO EXCITING!!! Cannot WAIT to find out!!!! Please post 'when' baby comes' in Community, ASAP!! I think we are ALL DYING for baby to get here!!! Yayay!!!!! YOU are more than ready as well! Lol!!! Poor, you!!! No, you are not comfortable right now! We can see it and probably most all of us remember that part! Lol!!! May you have the BEST and EASIEST labor EVER!!!! SO exciting!!! I cannot WAIT to hear the news!!!!
I don't know, I looked up a regular sweetened condensed milk recipe and there was butter in it, so that's what I made. And I know it all tastes delicious with butter either way.
Filo I think is impossible, it's something as a pastry chef I've never even made from scratch. Puff pastry I have a recipe for/ It's on my top watched video list.
Thanks for responding, I was curious because the butter in it hardens when refrigerated and then you have to heat it to use it. Not a big deal, just curious.
I learned a long time ago not to eat sweets... no matter what sweetener you use. As soon as I learned that and stopped eating ALL sweets, I quickly dropped the pounds that I just couldn't get rid of. I had already dropped 80 pounds without really trying, but I want to lose at least 10 more pounds. As soon as I dropped all sweets, that happened. And I don't miss the sweets at all now that I figured out that our ancient cavemen ancestors didn't have very many sweets to eat.
When you start adding substitutes for your sweet tooth and carb addiction , you will never fully heal and your craving will not cease. This is why so many state that keto failed them
I maintained my sweet tooth all the way through my Keto journey. I lost 25% body weight. And have maintained it for 3.5 years now. So if you need a bite of something sweet after dinner like me... If it helps you keep on track then great!
Oh wow~ never thought to try freezing swtnd. cond. milk. Have you found it requires any special thawing method, in fridge, on counter, stir every so often? *What I think of is any time I've tried to freeze (or refrigerate) & then reheat alfredo sauce, for example~which as you know, must be done very carefully.
No special thawing, over night in the fridge or on the counter both work. Alfredo is the cheese that messes it up I think. And you aren't reducing the cream in alfredo as much as the sweetened condensed milk which removes a lot of the water content.
@@KetoUpgrade And that my friends, would be the difference between a professionally trained chef, & one who's simply fumbled her way through the kitchen for 40 yrs🤣 Excellent points all, miss Alycia~ thx for 'splaining too💓~ it makes perfect sense. I just wouldn't have gone there first, actually was thinking it was a butter /separation thang. * P.S. You sick of hearing "where's that baby" yet? We all know exactly where he's at, & if I were Van I'd hang out too. It's dang cold in Buffalo! My oldest son Isaac was due December 10th, & was born the 30th by induction, @ 10lbs 12 oz~ waaaaay overdue! He looked 3 months old, it was crazy.=)
Hope you guys enjoy, was glad to be able to get this video out for the Holidays! Here are some of my fav keto holiday desserts I've created- th-cam.com/play/PLDA690SIIES1PNnQ0SFesdSYcOWpzCxwK.html

Love your recipes and videos 😊
I think I'll definitely have to have "quality control" and taste ALL of the varieties I make for the fudge gifts I'll be making! Lol
Soft fudge is still good. Growing up when my mom would make fudge it stayed in the fridge and we ate it with a spoon. 🤣
The natural flavor in Splenda brand Allulose is stevia. I was told this by their Customer Service.
I'm hosting a family Christmas eve dinner this year and was literally just searching for a sugar free fudge recipe. You came through for all of us once again! You're looking great and excited for your new baby to come soon! I have 5 grandchildren and they are truly a blessing
Awesome, love when that happens! Hope you and everyone else enjoys! Thank you!
I cut my fudge with a bench scraper
Good idea!
I really look forward to you doing the Hershey's fudge!! I'm not a huge fan of fudge of too sweet fudge, but I absolutely fell in love as a child with the Hershey's fudge!!!

Made basic chocolate fudge today with your recipe and my husband is over the moon! Thank you! Can't wait for that baby announcement! 💙
Thanks for all the fudge recipes. You made my mouth water. Love them.
You're welcome!
What's better than holiday fudge? Keto holiday fudge! 🙌🏼 Thanks for the fudge 🎄

Made the chocolate fudge today, and it is amazing. My husband who is diabetic absolutely loves it. Thank you for all of your hard work!
Yay!! You're welcome!
Yum definitely making some of those over Christmas
Thank you for all your hard work doing the experiments. This helps us so much with not needing to waste these constantly rising prices for the ingredients. Best of luck with your delivery. Merry Christmas and Happy New Year. Again thank you❤
Really appreciate all your work on these hmm now to figure out how to buy you a cup of coffee to go with that fudge! Merry Christmas 🎄🎁🎅

I keep checking on baby watch! 😁Praying for you & baby Vann. Thankful you have a midwife who is willing to let nature take its course. 🤗
Yeah they may only let me wait so long with me being of bariatric age and obese but hopefully he will decide to come before the complications are too risky to let me go any longer.
Thank you Alisha. These look delicious, eat responsibly. Hopefully your having your baby today after all this is your due date.
You're welcome, I hope it will happen today.
@@KetoUpgrade 🙏🏻🙏🏻🍼🍼👼👼👶🏻👶🏻
Oh wow!
You are working so hard.
Just want you to know this is greatly appreciated.
What a nice treat to make for gifts.
Thank you!
After BBBE, I can try one.
Thank you for sharing all your hard work. I really enjoy watching your videos 😊
Oh! And congratulations on your baby 🥰
OMG those look dangerously good.
Thank you so much for taking the time to do this so close to your due date! My family will enjoy these recipes. Best wishes for your delivery! PS, I hope you are having that baby!!
You're very welcome! I wish too, now I have to think about induction which I really didn't want to have to deal with.
You rock! Thank you for all the fudge varieties! 👏👏
Hi there! I loved your Condensed milk recipe. I've made keto versions before but this was the best one. I did substitute half of the cream with coconut cream. I do that with all the condensed milk that I have made. I used it to make peanut butter fudge. I'm sure it will taste great. Thanks again.
These are awesome recipes and EXACTLY what I was looking for!!!
Aww thanks! Hope you enjoy and glad I could help!
Ty for the new recipes. They all looked amazing... 🍫 🥰
You are so welcome! They were all pretty delicious!
You mentioned on a video that Big Lots had Splenda brand Allulose cheaper than you can buy bulk. Mine had the same deal as well and I asked if there was more in the back. Yes was the answer. So you might find they have much more than you thought.
Oh, yes the big lots allulose! I scored some of that also 😊
Me too!!
I'm in Canada and found a package of Lily's chocolate chips in a health food store for $11.99. Yeah, I left them there. I found a double size package of Krisda's "chocolatey" chips at Healthy Planet for $7.97. Im going to try them first in cookies, because I think that will give me a good idea of how they taste and how they melt, before I try them in fudge.
And when making the condensed milk, could i use powdered Swerve instead, and not have that crystalize?
Good idea, bummer you don't have bake believe. Even powdered swerve will crystallize unfortunately, might not be as noticeable though since it won't be big crystals. I used it in my lemon bar recipe as a test and it worked but because there is less volume my bars were very short.
I’m going to be making fudge tonight! Peanut butter/ white chocolate sounds the best to me! Tfs
It is delicious, just had a few pieces!!! Hope you enjoy!
*Looks so yummy* 😋
Oh my gosh. These look so good. It makes me want to make them all! Yummy maple walnut! 🎉❤
First off, thanks for putting in the work and sharing it with us. These recipes are nothing short or delicious.
For some reason, half the time we do this, the fudge doesn't set up but stays in a gooey, semi-malleable stage, even if we stick it in the freezer. Do you know why this might be happening?
You're welcome, thank you, so glad you enjoy!
It probably all depends on the type of keto chocolate, I've been finding lately that not all keto chocolates are good for certain things. The choczero chocolate chip make a super runny ganache which is usually just equal weight chocolate and heavy cream, super simple but not with keto ingredients, very frustrating when you are trying to make recipes you had figured out and then they don't work when you go to make them again. Luckily the fix for the fudge it is to just rewarm with more chips in it to get it more solid.
@@KetoUpgrade Thank you for a very fast response, it is much appreciated! We will give that a shot (adding more chips) and see what happens. Thanks again!
These look soooooo good. I will have to try to make at least one of them. So hard to choose.😁
Oh, you wonderful, marvelous, phenomenal, amazing gift from Heaven! Thank you!!! A million thanks are not enough! I’ll definitely be making at least one of these. Wishing you and your family a very Merry Christmas and anxiously waiting for the big announcement that baby is here. Blessings to you all! ❤❤❤

I got that Allulose as well at Big Lots....what a great find👍🏻
God bless you and keep you. Merry Christmas!
I love going through your experiments with you! Learn so much!!
Thanks for the video. One that you made looked like what we call "Oreo cookies & cream fudge". They all looked delicious.
Looks delicious as always!!

Can I use heavy whipping cream in place of heavy cream!? Heavy cream is hard to find!
It's the same thing.
Maple Walnut is my favorite fudge. Will definitely try it.
If you do the Hersey's fudge recipe (with sugar), pick a day when it's not rainy/humid, it won't set up.
Thanks for the tip.
You're wonderful!! Lily's makes a white chocolate peppermint. I think I'll use those for the peppermint fudge.
Aww thanks. Lily's is what I used for the white chocolate peppermint fudge and it was too soft. So I would cut the sweetened condensed milk down a little.

Wonder if you could use part peanut butter and part dry peanut butter to help control the softness?
I thought about it, kinda the same as the peanut butter collagen I mentioned, I just don't have any that doesn't contain sugar so I couldn't test it.
Can I live in your bakery?
Also, I have some new challenges for you:
- mucha buena or the pulverized cookie
- florentine cookies (without the honey)
- graham crackers
- baklava
- kunefeh
Thank you!
Do a search on her recipes, she's got a graham cracker recipe.
I am so excited about this. And wondering about the baby. lol
Still no baby ☹
@@KetoUpgrade You must be so desperate to meet him. And in a couple weeks, you'll barely remember a time when he wasn't there. OH! They have a sucking reflex, let him latch on your nose, it feels funny. And sniff his neck for me. Nothing like sniffing baby necks lol
Thank you so much
How many ounces does the SCM recipe make? They all look delicious. Now I need to go buy some cream. 😊🎄🎅
I believe I said 37 ounces in the video. Thanks!
Great video. Thanks for the hard work you're putting into all the recipes! About the chocolates you used, I'm concerned with using these so called "keto friendly" ones from the supermarket.

Mmmmm!!! Thank YOU!!! A question, please? Victoria's Keto Kitchen made sweetened condensed milk with 2 ingredients, heavy whipping cream, and allulose. Nothing more was added.

I don't know, I looked up a regular sweetened condensed milk recipe and there was butter in it, so that's what I made. And I know it all tastes delicious with butter either way.
Have you ever tried BochaSweet instead of the allulose?
No because it's twice as expensive but I've heard it acts similar to allulose.
4:45 I am wondering if using the peanut butter powder instead of peanut butter would keep it drier with using the same amount of condensed milk.
I thought about it, kinda the same as the peanut butter collagen I mentioned, I just don't have any that doesn't contain sugar so I couldn't test it.
Hi! I am having a trouble with re-creating keto version of puff pastry and Filo dough. Do you have any suggestions ,maybe even recipe?
Filo I think is impossible, it's something as a pastry chef I've never even made from scratch. Puff pastry I have a recipe for/ It's on my top watched video list.
Hi, have you tried powdered peanut butter instead of natural peanut butter...just a suggestion...i dont makeup recipes
I haven't. I have some I should probably throw out because it's old and has sugar in it, lol. Haven't tried to find one without sugar.
Who makes these “decent keto peppermint mints” you speak of? 😂 I want to try some that don’t put me in the rr.
The only one I've seen is called ice chips I believe.
What about if I want to do peanut butter fudge.. do u have a recipe for that
There are 7 recipes in the description box and blog, one of which is peanut butter fudge.
What flavoring makes Amaretto fudge?
I believe just almond.
Thank you! I love Amaretto & chocolate swirl fudge!
What is purpose of butter in keto sweetened condensed milk
I looked up a regular sweetened condensed milk recipe and there was butter in it. So that's how I made it and butter makes everything better anyways.
Thanks for responding, I was curious because the butter in it hardens when refrigerated and then you have to heat it to use it. Not a big deal, just curious.
@@mamakovi4309 it usually becomes a harmonious mixture as it cools and I just let it come to room temp before I use it if it was in the fridge.
It freezes fine?!!
The sweetened condensed milk does. I never froze the fudge but most keto stuff freezes fine.
@@KetoUpgrade Awesome, Thanks!
I learned a long time ago not to eat sweets... no matter what sweetener you use. As soon as I learned that and stopped eating ALL sweets, I quickly dropped the pounds that I just couldn't get rid of. I had already dropped 80 pounds without really trying, but I want to lose at least 10 more pounds. As soon as I dropped all sweets, that happened. And I don't miss the sweets at all now that I figured out that our ancient cavemen ancestors didn't have very many sweets to eat.

Is the baby here already
How's you doing today? Is baby boy here yet?
Still no baby, feeling fine, just not sleeping great.
@@KetoUpgradetheir not going to induce you for labor? When was your due date?
@@celinesrivera1369 only if it becomes medically necessary. It was the 10th.
Lol ...one piece....I can still fall face first in a whole plate of fudge
Who eats just 1 piece of fudge? LOL 😆
When you start adding substitutes for your sweet tooth and carb addiction , you will never fully heal and your craving will not cease. This is why so many state that keto failed them
I maintained my sweet tooth all the way through my Keto journey. I lost 25% body weight. And have maintained it for 3.5 years now. So if you need a bite of something sweet after dinner like me... If it helps you keep on track then great!
That is why you have it only as an occasional treat.
I know a lot more people who stuck with keto because of these treats than those who quit. Everyone gets to choose what works for them!!
it didn't fail for me and these are the people my videos are for - th-cam.com/video/mWvfQr4A8SY/w-d-xo.html
I never lack control on sweets. We are all different.
Love you! I'm so excited for you! Thank you for all you share! It really does help! 🙏🕊🤍🕊🤍🕊
You're very welcome! So glad to help!!!
Too much going on
Ok, I write a whole blog post so you can just go to that if the video is too much for you.
Oh wow~ never thought to try freezing swtnd. cond. milk. Have you found it requires any special thawing method, in fridge, on counter, stir every so often?
*What I think of is any time I've tried to freeze (or refrigerate) & then reheat alfredo sauce, for example~which as you know, must be done very carefully.
No special thawing, over night in the fridge or on the counter both work. Alfredo is the cheese that messes it up I think. And you aren't reducing the cream in alfredo as much as the sweetened condensed milk which removes a lot of the water content.
@@KetoUpgrade And that my friends, would be the difference between a professionally trained chef, & one who's simply fumbled her way through the kitchen for 40 yrs🤣 Excellent points all, miss Alycia~ thx for 'splaining too💓~ it makes perfect sense. I just wouldn't have gone there first, actually was thinking it was a butter /separation thang.
* P.S. You sick of hearing "where's that baby" yet? We all know exactly where he's at, & if I were Van I'd hang out too. It's dang cold in Buffalo! My oldest son Isaac was due December 10th, & was born the 30th by induction, @ 10lbs 12 oz~ waaaaay overdue! He looked 3 months old, it was crazy.=)
