Eggs-tra Special

Stuart brought me home a Galaxy Caramel Egg. Galaxy. Caramel. Egg.

For those of you who don't know British chocolate well, Galaxy makes a creamier version of Cadbury's. It's one of the Mercedes of the chocolate world.

I've had it since May.

For those of you who don't know me well, that's a LONG time for me to keep chocolate.

I'm a choco-holic. I know it. My hubby knows it. My kids know it. If there's chocolate in the house, it won't be long until it's no longer in the house. If there was some kind of support group for this addiction I'd be the "poster child" for it.

Okay. So I exaggerate...a bit.

Anyways...back to my Galaxy Caramel Egg...

Each of the family members in my house -- with the exception of Ethan and the various fur-covered ones -- has demanded implored encouraged me to eat said egg.  I'm guessing it's to remove the temptation that they feel in seeing it each day.

But I can't.

It's not because I don't want to. It's not because I won't enjoy it. It's not even because I'm not physically able to.

I just don't want to...yet.

There will come a moment, when the time is right and the coffee is perfect, that I will peel back the foil wrapper and sink my teeth into the luxurious caramel surrounded by creamy chocolate, savoring the sweet goodness with a swig of Starbucks Special Blend.

...........

Excuse me. I think I hear the kettle whistling.....

Eggs-actly What I Need

If only the whole world was made of chocolate. Mmm.... Well, I guess it could get kind of sticky and messy at times... especially during the hot summer months.

Okay. So if only the world was made of chocolate when I need chocolate. Better?

Sometimes I think I'm a chocoholic. It's then that I think I should definitely attend "Chocoholics Anonymous" meetings. "My name is Susie...and I'm a chocoholic....and I'm NOT changing! You can't make me! I love chocolate!" Oops. Guess that wouldn't work. Maybe they'd have to drag me out in a straight jacket and give me a chocolate drip. Mmmm...

*Pop!*

Okay. Okay. Back to the real world.

So enter in this time of year.

Why?

Because it's Eastertime! And everything -- or mostly everything worthy of a look in the food arena -- is made of chocolate. You have chocolate rabbits and chocolate lambs and chocolate-covered marshmallows and....the best-est of all: chocolate eggs.

I don't know this for certain but I think Cadbury's puts something addictive in its chocolate caramel and cream eggs. It's like Whiskas for cats. "9 out of 10 prefer..."

Who can resist them? Well, what person who loves chocolate like me can resist them?

But then you have to ask yourself: Why would you want to resist them?

Eggs-actly! *wink-grin*
