At least once a day Victor and I have a disagreement about something ridiculous and I always wish that I had all of the internet in the car with us to tell Victor that he’s insane, or to tell me that my hair looks nice. I’ve decided to start sharing these disagreements here in the form of polls because I think it was Gandhi who said “The secret to a happy marriage is to drag in lots of strangers to join in your bloody conflicts.”
This week’s big disagreement was about the fact that he likes powdered donuts and I hate them. I explained that powdered sugar makes my mouth unnaturally cold and was probably made by evil wizards. He argued that powdered sugar did no such thing to him and that I was insane. I argued that powdered sugar makes everyone’s mouth cold and that if I ever decided to run a marathon I’d carry a bunch of powdered sugar to sprinkle on my body whenever I got overheated. He argued that I would never run a marathon. He won that particular argument.
But the powdered sugar question still stands, so please be honest:
