    We joke around so much that when we had kids we realized we had to be careful not to trick them. We lived in a place with Wind energy. So when it was windy we would say stuff like, "Uuug, I wish they would turn those giant fans off" and when it was hot we would say, "Of course they never turn the giant fans on when it's so hot out!"

    I also only prank with funny things in the moment. One funny example. I had a yogurt that said: This milk is made from the milk of human kindness. I held it up with my finger covering the word kindness. And said, "Omg, look, this yogurt is made from the milk of humans!" My husband reacted so much that he almost fell out of the chair. Little things like that. But, hard to remember. That one just stuck in my memory. We play little April Fools tricks on our kids such as putting a packet of gravy into their lunch box.

    Now that is hilarious, things like that I think are funny and harmless. That's quick thinking to cover the one word on the label.

    Okay I am curious. ...what is your cheat food? I don't cheat, I always log my calories but when my husband comes home, he loves chicken wings and so do I. But we have packed away the deep fryer when I started this fitness journey , so the first place we go together when he returns from work is the Canadian brew house for wings. :o

    Oh, but my list of cheat foods is way too long... wings, cookies, pizza, cookies, beer, cookies, peanut m&ms, cookies...

    Chocolate. I'm not trying to lose weight. But, have to be on a strict diet for medical reasons. So can't cheat. I tried a glass of wine a couple months ago (after a year with no alcohol). But, didn't turn out well.

    I quit smoking 4 years ago and traded cigarettes for Pringle potato chips. Gained almost 80 pounds. So now I am working very hard to get back to my weight before I quit.

    I'm married! And I have an almost 3 year old! And 7 animals! And I've had a few drinks but I think that's a topic for a different post.

    My son got married on 5-10-15, he said that way he would NEVER forget the date ha ha ha.

    Yes. We actually met 8/13/10 (Friday the 13th). Then got married 9/13/13 (Friday the 13th). =]

    As for pranking...comparable to what you see on Youtube with the pranking couples, I wouldn't say we're anywhere near there, but our personalities are the type to always joke around with things all the time. I'm also guilty of always running to hide in the dark or behind a corner to scare the *kitten* out of him. It's funny to see such a macho man jump/flinch/scream in fright. I'm wondering if I should cut back on this as we get older, I would loathe to give him a premature heart attack. I also am a fan of dutch ovens and cupcaking. :p

    I'll probably continue to lurk this thread. It seems pretty amusing at times

    I'm afraid to ask what "cupcaking" is. :D

    That was the main reason why I said it could be fun to follow this thread. Can't say I've ever indulged in the cupcake. Or ever heard of it.

    Cupcaking is where you cup your butt with your hand when you feel one coming on, fart in said cupped hand and immediately transfer that contaminated air to your sleeping spouse's nose/mouth region.

    I just had to sift through various urban dictionary meanings to find the fart related meaning. Lol

    AHHHH. My husband refers to that as "air biscuits". :#

    I'm more of a...wait until the bedroom is completely silent, 15 minutes after going to bed...and then BAM. I laugh so hard at his disgust and continue to deny and blame it on the poor dog. :D

    Warning to those new to cupcaking - if one of you is on a high protein regimen you may be dealing with a lethal weapon.

    Our pranks have little to no limit although there is a standing No-Zombie impersonation rule, but that's only for your safety.

    One time I thought my nine year old daughter had her arms out, walking up to me, to give me a hug. But, she was just being a zombie.

    Not married but happily taken with a almost 1 year old.

    I am busy finalizing all the ridiculous plans for her party this weekend with all the "in laws" and my guys 8 siblings and their families coming down from NY for this party. Just glad the forecast is looking wonderful. 68 and sunny.

    Owning the elliptical while enjoying a peaceful evening listening to Fleetwood Mac.
    ...while my kids sneak downstairs every 5 minutes to tell me something they forgot to say before we put them to bed.

    It seems like the Chit-Chat section is designed only for singles. Some of us are happily married. :) I would love to meet some other married MFP!

    Yep. Married, I'm into staying fit, wife not so much. I have a desk job that bores me to death.
    Always up for a chat.
