@Natalie My MIL used to be amazed at me when I sometimes passed up dessert for another helping of potatoes! I like sweets and most of the time I can control myself. I can be satisfied with one or two cookies, etc. On the other hand, we just got a box of home made cookies from DIL and I have to quickly find a hiding place to keep them away from the cookie monster in our house! I want to at least taste one or two of them.
Any day you wake up on the sunny side of the grass is a good day.
