@kitedoc You were asking about the cake

There you go :)

Just reliving Friday morning with Mrs Knikki and lets say it was eventful for me anyway, she was totally unaware because she was in a separate room getting ready, but mine went something like this:

Libre and MiaoMiao fell off while in the shower, almost like the sticky stuff just failed (fortunately brought back up testing kit) :meh:
Cut self while shaving, it fact the bathroom looked like something from a horror movie, no kidding.:arghh:
A friend noticed that "something was not right" yep was in hypo at 2.8 but she is used to me so out came the emergency food (yes I had made plans and had things around but because of earlier all this had gone out the window) :nurse:
I am also fairly sure that I exchanged vows while still lower than 3.0 :rolleyes:

Still had a fab day mind and that cake is full on, chocolate sponge lower one, coconut and lime sponge on top covered in thin layer of butter cream and it is well :joyful::woot::):angelic::cat: and we are fully enjoying it.

Cake looks lovely. Despite a few hiccups seems like it all went beautifully, and to have been a fun, positive, and forward looking, event.

Hope you have a long, and happy, marriage.

Cake looks wonderful @Knikki but are wedding vows legal if you do them while hypo? ;)

I caught a 24h unicorn so am quite content with that. Let’s watch it all go horribly wrong now... :D

Good point about what decision-making capacity does one have when hypo!! I think the bride's maids and best man will vouch for his resolve before and after the wedding !!!
On another theme, no one tells you that as a parent you become a de facto coat hanger, taxi-driver, galley cook, first-aider, seamstress, tutor, broken heart mender etc, on top of one's own life challenges. Being Ruler of the Multiverses is even more prestigious. May your figures be as flat as an (inedible-for-you) pancake !!

I do have a recipe for keto pancakes that I must get around to trying, but for now it’s (even more) coffee and some eggs.

My favourite phrase when my 15 year old wants something daft doing that he could perfectly well do himself, is “*** Oz. I’m not yer mum! Oh, hang on...” but my lazy parenting has resulted in a kid who can feed himself, wash his own clothes, and do the bins and hoovering, plus take care of three cats and water the garden if it’s too dry.

The next challenge is houseplants, which I haven’t mastered myself!
 
7.1 this morning which is good considering the gargantuan repast I ate for my evening meal yesterday.
My wife often calls me Tony Two Teas as I polish off whats left on a sunday.......

Tony

Wow enjoy!!

@Knikki cake loooks lush!

@Mel dCP well done on your unicorn - I have inserted my sensor on my upper chest. Hurt (but not unbearable). My first bleeder! Anyone else had a bleeder? I am hoping it means that it is going to be accurate!

Miscalculated lunch - so running high. Why do highs take so long to come down?!!
 
I’ve not had a bleeder yet, but I now fully expect that to happen when I change sensors at my friend’s house at the weekend...
 
Intrigued to discover unexpected stress seems to spike me fast, but also drop faster than expected. I'd've expected to be able to walk all the way home tonight on the number I had at the end of the day - but I got to the usual stop-and-check point, and was lower than expected so got on the bus for the last uphill mile. (Except it's four miles round the houses on the bus I got on - "splendid" new route which takes the same amount of time to do that section as I would be doing my mile walk.)

I am having a rare Do As I Am Told moment and having a restful evening after the stressful event so will be intrigued to see how the dear numbers are later.

I'll take a big bowl of porridge over lasagne any day of the week :***: - hope it was nice though!

As far as your own bed goes - I always have trouble sleeping the first couple of nights away from home. I tend to wake every hour almost on the dot when sleeping at 'new' places.
