Like playing baseball in a minefield
Without trying to kill anyone's buzz about Halloween (it's my favorite holiday, after all), I just have to tell you that it's a dangerous time of year for people with wonky pancreases and poor willpower. We've had Halloween candy in the house for a couple of days, and I've been snacking after the kids go to bed even though I shouldn't, and I know I shouldn't. The net result is that I've been waking up with blood sugar readings about 25 percent higher than they have been. Bah!
