Carmen:
Ah, but for the fans that's what makes them special. They're a
delicate sugar glaze over a melt-in-your-mouth puff of barely there
pastry. <G>

Carmen:
DH has always been very thin. He had to gain weight to join the
military. Who would have thought they'd have weight *minimums*? If I
recall, he had to weigh 147 pounds at 6'5" tall. Now he's a more
robust 185, but at his height he's got a long way to go before he's in
danger of bumping up against the Army's height-weight standards. With
physical training being a mandatory part of his job that's not likely.

Your DH is pretty lucky, since most men seem to start going to
pot(bellies) in their early 30s. As long as he keeps mindful of his
weight he might hang around to get underfoot for years to come. I
hope so for your sake. :-)

Take care,
Carmen
