Well, I woke up with a slightly lower BS of 9.2. But, still a restless night as both my arms hurt! Hopefully today will be better! I have a better clue to the guessing game of doses thanks to yesterday!🙄

Ah!🙄 The ready made frozen mash you get in pellets, usually around 8 per scoop of mash, & you just used a few pellets? That's actually quite convenient for better BS control: don't have to eat a full scoop!

Well, Once again if I was dishonest, I would say I don’t have a full number of pellets ,it makes carb counting easier 4C270BCA-54A9-4B6A-B609-4D88FAD68E10.gif. I add a small dash of milk and a knob of butter

Oh, @ Ljc, I've been meaning to ask What's liver sausage?

You might know it as Liverwurst

You can get a spreadable version too
 
Not really it’s not as strongly flavoured as Brussels pate, it’s a slicing sausage though you can get a spreadable version. It’s mostly in the deli counter In supermarkets.
