I just read in an article that Hardison and Voodoo Tatum= same actor.
- that's* where I know him from. I've wondered for months. I heart Hardison, though.
You got all kinds of learnin' and you made me look the fool without tryin', and yet here I am with a gun to your head. That's 'cause I got people with me. People who trust each other, who do for each other, and ain't always lookin' for the advantage.

Love is stronger than death and harder than sorrow. Those who practice it are fierce like the light of stars traveling eons to pierce the night.
It's hard when you love someone and they are literally killing themselves before your eyes.
It is hard. Also, if your MiL does stop baking, that will not necessarily inhibit the sweets consumption of your FiL. When my father was diagnosed with diabetes, the whole family went to a session with a diabetes educator. My mother tweaked her menu-planning to fit the eating plan described at that session. And she stopped baking sweets. For a while, my dad did great with his diet. He of course ate what my mother put in front of him at the dinner table. He lost some weight. He quit smoking for about three months. Then gradually, he started cheating. He started buying sweets at the store. After a while, my mother began to wonder if she had kept baking if at least it would have spared him some of the excessive sugar added for preservative. If your MiL does not provide fresh, homemade baked goods, it won't necessarily stop your FiL from getting any.

Sometimes I trip on how happy we could be.
I'm glad I'm not diabetic, because now I want a cookie. Or some cake.

My old HR person had the same first and last names, after taking her husband's last name. It was ridiculous.

Uhg, Scrappy.
Liese, this is the recipe I'm using: [link] Sorta in the same vein. Everyone is taking a bite and going "it's not that....oh wait, now there's the cayenne!" The ddl really does soothe it nicely.
I'm hoping my car starts tomorrow. It really didn't want to today, but finally turned over with a huge cough of blue smoke and then ran fine from then on out. I'm thinking something just got wet. But, I need to take it in anyway because a taillight is out, and I know from experience that me changing those bulbs is no fun, and even less fun in the cold (plus last time it did this, it wasn't the bulb, it was the wiring and I'm suspicious.)
But I don't think I can take it in (short of it not starting) until after Xmas. Blearg.

do you watch Supernatural too, erika? he was in season two of it. i had a hard time loving Hardison at first because of the major disconnect from the other two characters.

It's five thousand for kissing, ten thousand for snuggling... End of list.
Then gradually, he started cheating.
This is my in-laws. MiL is a great cook; FiL an obese diabetic. And she can't control his intake via her cooking because he sneaks candy in the house and his office. Hides ice cream in the basement fridge and lies about the housekeeper eating it. Etc.

Life moves pretty fast. You don't stop and look around once in a while, you could miss it.
He IS on medication and gets his blood sugar checked regularly. They live in a house next to the nurse daughter's and she keeps a keen eye on his health, so that's good. And I realize that his health really is not his wife's responsibility, but I know it drives her kids crazy she is unwilling to make any change at all in their lifestyle--not as crazy as him ignoring his doctor's orders does, but pretty close.
