Procedures for all recipes
Preheat oven to 350 degrees
Toast the almonds until golden, then chop by hand into 1/4 inch chunks.
*Reduce oven heat to *325* degrees* Cream the butter until light, add the
sugar and beat till smooth and creamy. Beat in eggs until the mixture is
smooth. Add the (orange, anise, lemon) specific ingredients. Sift in the
flour, baking powder and salt, beat until just mixed. Stir in the almonds.
On a floured board, divide the dough in half and roll each half into a
long roll about 1 1/2 inches in diameter and about 10 inches long. Set
the rolls on a baking sheet at least 3 inches apart, bake in the top third
of the oven (*325*) for about 25 minutes, or until they are set and
lightly browned on top. Cool the rolls for 5 minutes or so, then slice
diagonally into 1/2 inch thick slices. Lay the slices flat on the baking
sheet and return to the oven for another 10 minutes. Turn the slices over
and bake for another 10 minutes. Cool on a rack, and keep in a tightly
covered tin - they keep for months.

Dieting made easy
If you enjoy your food, but need to become slim and make improvements in your general shape, then, without doubt, you should eat a thoughtfully planned wholesome diet. Theoretically, this should incorporate five measures of fruit and vegetables every day and contain the correct proportion of fat, carbs and protein.
Dieters most certainly direct their attention to department store and big brand products professing to be 'low in fat'. To do this is often a mistake, given that a food item may be significantly reduced in fat, but whilst still remaining much too high in calories and carbs.
In deciding on a weight loss regime, it is essential to also attempt to cut back on your consumption of refined carbohydrate, fat and salt.
