I've been so tempted to try the new Hershey's Kisses that MIL brings over to share. We've had some talks lately about generalities of WHY I've decided to eat a certain way (and she has said she appreciates the taste changes and trying new things, and that she's very happy that I'm ok with meat being in my home, for them or they wouldn't meal-share with us often... and that she's very happy I'm not trying to tell HER how to eat, etc)~
Anyway, the point of the ramble is that I really WANTED to try them, and when my husband was teasing me today, chasing me down the hallway with one, going "OMG IT IS SOOOOO GOOOD", his MOM popped her head around the corner and chastised him!
She told him to back off, and that she knows it's hard for me to say no to some things, but that I'm trying to do things the way I feel I need to, and he needs to respect it. (it was all in good fun, but it was nice to hear her say that too!!) And they were respectful of me at dinner today and made sure I had plenty to eat that didn't have any butter/milk in it (and TOLD me that the squash they brought over was not vegan, and said it in those terms!!)
They are being so great about it all... and are worrying over what I'll have to eat at the family/friends get together tomorrow. I've assured them I'll bring enough to share of something I can have, and I'm more than happy to do so.
But it's great that they are thinking about it and keeping me in mind!
Anyway! Had to share! My omni family out here is being SO COOL lately!
