A Bit of No S Related Randomness

Post by Ruamgirl » Mon Nov 19, 2012 3:31 am

This may sound silly, but the No S Diet book was involved in a pivotal moment in my life a couple of weeks ago. On Halloween, my boyfriend proposed to me. He proposed with a bookmark that his mom made. It said Will You Marry Me? I love to read, so that's what gave him the idea to use the bookmark. But anyway, the book he used to put the bookmark in was the No S Diet. I kind of looked at it as a sign.

So there you go! The No S Diet book was involved in one of the most important moments of my life. Cheers!

Congratulations! That was a clever way to propose.

Congrats! I assume you were already reading the No S book? :wink:

Congratulations, and as Bill Engvall would say, "Here's your sign!" Seriously though, many happy years to both of you.
