I have a bigger sweet tooth than my husband.
He reminded me of that this week when I was making him a P B & J sandwich and he told me not to put too much jelly on it because then it would be too sweet and he would not enjoy it as much. Then he exclaimed "I just don't like things as sweet as you do!"
He has never been into desserts much. When he was growing up they didn't eat them very often. I always had an abundance of yummy treats to choose from when I was younger because my mom is good at baking things that are VERY delicious. I have been trying to eat sweets with more moderation lately - which is not easy.
There is nothing wrong with me liking sweet things and my husband liking the salty stuff. We are all different and unique and that is what helps keep things balanced. We can crave different things and still enjoy being together. I don't mind buying less ice cream than I'd like to - and keeping the cabinet stocked with a bag of chips. And I will continue putting less jelly on his sandwich even though it is dry and boring that way!
And how do I enjoy a P & B sandwich????I also put cream cheese and jam on it ~ along with the P&B... I'm with you on this one, toots. Otherwise, it probably wouldn't go down!!!!
