I heard on the radio the other day that you should sleep with your bedroom doors closed in case of a fire. The doors will hold back the smoke as they have discovered in tests.
Husband M has discovered that white rice is really bad for his blood sugar readings. Two slices of rye bread has such a different (better) effect, something to keep in mind if you are diabetic or pre-diabetic.
My sister found this most romantic true story from the New York Times
'She Answered His Ad for a Roommate, Moved In and Never Left'. I enjoyed the read.

Thanks for the good advice - smoke really can be a killer. Love that last ad! Have a good new week, hugs, Valerie
Sweet story. My step son of 17 discovered crackling yesterday. How can you go 17 years and not eat cracking when you're not even vegetarian!
I always sleep with my doors closed. I actually can't stand being in a room with an open door.
My parents sleep with their bedroom door closed and locked. They figure if someone breaks in, they'll have that extra barrier where they can call 911. It probably sounds morbid, but I've seen a lot of true crime shows where people were murdered at night while asleep in their beds, so I can kinda see that... I think even if a burglar broke in, they'd be likely to just take things and not worry about the people in the bedrooms if the doors were closed and locked.
Brown rice is much better than white rice, and well worth the extra time to make. We have our bedroom door opened a crack so the cats can come in and out during the night.
Has M eaten brown rice? It might be better than white rice.
Very interesting post.
Rice is not at all good for diabetic patients. It is better to keep away from rice. In South India rice is a staple food. It is eater in the form in the morning in the form of IDDILY, DOSA, PUTTU OR APPAM. Rice is also eaten for lunch and dinner.As a result the percentage of people suffering diabetes is very high.
Best wishes
Nice skies. I do love rice.
We have tried it Gigi, it's a good alternative.
What a beautiful sky photo! Definitely less rice is something to strive for if diabetic. How sweet about the story.
One of my writer buds is married to a fireman and he says the same thing about sleeping with the bedroom door closed. We do mainly to keep the critters out:)
I've always thought white rice was bad for blood sugar, but I had a diabetic friend that swore by it. Go figure.
Oh, I loved it to read this touching roommate story! It's really wonderful romantic! Many thanks for sharing :)
Rice can really spike some folks up, that's for sure. How about organic millet? I hydrate mine with chicken stock or water and I use it as rice. Yum. Though, I am not sure if it would spike him or not.
Thanks for the tip Ivy, looks like millet is medium GI would be ok
