Did anyone see this article in The Wall Street Journal about the different ways in which brains react to seeing cake? It sure explains a lot! My husband, who can walk away from all desssert (except ice cream) is on one side of the page; and I'm clearly on the other side.

Hmmm, that's pretty interesting!

My hubby is the same way! He will eat cake, although he really doesn't care for it, but sit a bowl of ice cream in front of him and it ON!! icon_biggrin.gif
