Bye Sugar!

So this tempting little dandy is prominently displayed on our staircase.  Of course the Skittles were purchased back in '07 (remember that when visiting), but this is besides the point.  The point is that Ryan, of course, has discovered this gem and likes to try and sneak a handful while unattended.   Suffice it to say, the last thing Ms. Ryan needs is a mouthful of sugar so she is not allowed to touch the 'candy'.  Occasionally, when all is silent in the world for a tad too long, you might find her rushing to get a fix.  Nothing says 'busted' like a handful of Skittles bouncing down the stairs for the house to hear.  The other day I found her here and all I had to do was give the infamous parent look for her to promptly say in the most angelic voice created "bye candy, bye sugar"
 Those evil people have thwarted my plan once again.....

Based on the title, I thought you were going to tell me that you're cutting all sugar out of the Stiff household, and I thought, "Oh, great. She's going to be one of THOSE bloggers."

Come on now. Sugar and caffeine keep this family moving. And wine.
