Hi L,

I ordered two samplers bags from Pleasantville, some of each type of cookie, and a small bag of spices. With the shipping fee, my bill was a little over $26. The $1.79 spices tasted fine (a little like the Spike seasoning you buy at the grocery store), however, the cookies were a total waste of good money, as far as I am concerned. The cream de menthe flavor was the most palatable, but even then I could never call them "good", and definitely not worth their cost. Many people had raved about them, but I would much rather have something made with the Atkins' mixes, or make the zucchini muffins found in this recipe section.

The only thing I have made with almond flour is the zucchini muffins, and they were very good. I'm pretty sure you can't just substitute almond flour for white flour and have any recipe turn out, but I'm not sure why Linda
