Chocolate Covered Christmas
Much like last year, Laurie got me candy for Christmas. Although I think less this year. Which is fine because I really need to lose weight. Trust when people say it’s harder to lose weight as you get older. Or maybe it’s easier to put it on. Or both.
Anyway, this year’s haul includes the traditional small box of Godiva chocolate, one bag of Hershey’s Mint Miniatures (man, I LOVE these things!), two Terry’s Chocolate Oranges, a box of Candy Cane Joe-Joe’s from Trader Joe’s (think mint Oreo’s with crushed up candy canes…awesome!), and a 6-pack of Reese’s Peanut Butter (make sure we don’t say Christmas) Trees. I notice the wrapper is different than the one I have on the web site, so I’ll have to remember to save one.
Also, for the first time, she got me Dilettante Bing Cherries in Premium Chocolate. I’ve seen the chocolate covered fruits before, but never bought any. I have to say…while the product was good, having these chocolate covered cherries around were very addicting. They were the first things I popped open and Laurie and I went through them kinda quick. Especially when we were laying on the couch watching Christmas specials off the DVR.
I’m trying to slow down, but I think the Reese’s Trees are next.
