Hmmmm

There are just so many things I could title this post/picture:

Why I hate Target.
Why I love Target.
Why I don't usually shop on an empty stomach.
Why I don't take my kids shopping. (Well, why I normally don't.)
Why you shouldn't go shopping when you're feeling down.
Why I still have to lose 13.5 lbs of baby weight.
Why my kids inherited my sweet toot
h.

But mostly...Why I love Christmastime!! These Cadbury "balls" are my favorite Easter treat (Cadbury Mini Eggs during Easter) and now they are out at Christmas too! These Oreos are pretty good (chocolate-covered mint). And you all know my love for caramel... I can't win. Or I can (and do), depending on how you look at it.

I wonder how many shoes I could get each year if I didn't have (ha ha -- "have") to buy mini eggs and Christmas balls. I'd look into it, but . . . nah.

Okay, I am on my way to Target. You had me at Cadbury's Christmas balls. Maybe I will have to buy some and store them in my year's supply....

Oh you're doing awesome if you only have 13.5 lbs left to lose, that's about how much I have left to lose and I've been working on it for 4 months now. I guess that's what I get for gaining 50/60lbs why pregnant.

Mmmm...mini-eggs! My favorite weakness.

What's funny is I'd be all over those goldfish crackers in the corner. Lately all I want is salty food. But if you combine that with chocolate, I'm there (like Hershey's Take 5 candy bar). It's just enough sweet and just enough salty. I think I'll head to the store. :)

Totally agree with you!! I can not shop on an empty stomach or I come back with anything and everything that is chocolate. HOpe the treats atleast helped cheer you up.

Cadbury makes Christmas candy?! Where have I been?!?!?!

Jana said...

you should try hershey's candy cane hugs - white chocolate with peppermint sprinkles. they are my FAVORITE! they have them at raley's. i may or may not have eaten an entire bag by myself :)

I would have to title this "Danger Zone". Seriously! Is there anything better than Christmas candy? I had never heard of Cadbury making Christmas "eggs", so we are all over that. Thanks for the heads up; I'm for sure heading to Target this weekend!

Our sister-in-law just sent us a package of "Candy Cane Joe-Joe's" (I think that's what they're called). They're like candy cane Oreos. So delicious!! If you don't have a Trader Joe's nearby, then I will personally drive down and give you a package! You've got to try them. :)

It's so easy to gain weight this time of year! The health challenge from Peter's work this final part of the year is to maintain (or lose) weight. Tough. I always excuse myself by figuring our bodies are just supposed to put on a little extra insulation during the cold months! :o)

Oh dear, target is a dangerous place. Why is it their treats are so much more tempting than other places? I feel the very same way. Cadbury mini eggs during Christmas-unheard of.

I couldn't find any of the Cadbury's Christmas Balls here, so while I was in Ohio, I hunted them down. I found them at CVS, not Target! They were so good! I should have bought more.
