Here at Von Bergen's Country Market, we like to share our culinary knowledge and our successful
creations. Here are just a few! Our
recipes will be including many new ideas for diabetics as Xander, our 11 year old grandson, was diagnosed with Juvenile Diabetes in November 2010 and Mel with Type 2 in February 2010. While
it has been a challenge to count carbs, and eat on a schedule, both Mel and Xander are doing well. Mel is
losing weight and Xander is gaining!

Cleaning Shortcuts! Wash windows on a cloudy day! Direct sunlight causes them
to dry faster and streak! Use an old shower curtain as a drop cloth under
the table when kids are working on messy art projects!
