I would have grabbed it out of the dishwater and rinsed it off and ate it! :P :oops: :D

By the by, Congratulations for another one on the way! :D

Cheers,

Nowadays, sadly, chocolates give me a headache, and I don't eat them except very rarely.
Godiva? Dresser? Don't make sense....duh.

I actually thought of doing that, until it started to disintegrate. In no time flat, the poor cookie was reduced to goo. It was horrible.


Oh, but I DID lick my fingers after I threw what I could out....does that count?

:wink:

And thank you for the congrats! :)

Guilty as charged. Except hiding ice cream in a dresser drawer doesn't work.

You know, I lose alot of cookies that way by dunking them in milk.

and, yes finger licking does count! :lol:

By the way if you have the baby on the 7th of November, you can name her after my daughter Angie. She is a great musician! She was suppose to be born on the 28th of November, but we were in a hurry for some reason. :wink:

Cheers,

Weeks - you reminded me....

When Nate was really little, he'd say upon going to bed:
"Good night,
sleep tight,
get candy"

Wonder why he thought THAT???!!! :D

Yeah, I feel for my parents. The trigger when I was little was popcorn. It would wake me from a dead sleep so my poor parents could never wait long enough.

Can't take all the credit for this, though. Before it was distributed very far, my mom used to hide Blue Bell ice cream I brought home from college at the back of the freezer in an unmarked container. It backfired though. Mom & Dad had company and Dad made banana daquiris with ice cream instead of ice. Unfortunately, Mom forgot to tell Dad there was homemade clam chowder in the back of the freezer. Never did find out who got the first taste.......

I don;t have children but I do teach high school. . . . at certain times of the school year junk food accumulates like snow in Alaska. The trick is to store it properly. Bookcases work well.
