I agree absolutely. The majority of our meals are also from scratch and most of my time goes into the carb counting. I’m sure I’d be much faster at dose calculations if I did it in my head more often. But you and your son, along with most of the human race, are faster at math than I am. It is not my forte. Which is probably why I prefer to have a machine do it for me.
