SUGAR!


we may have found the reason for my constant need of dental work....

the other day my wife and i went for a walk. as we journeyed together we discovered that from our new apartment we can actually walk to a target store. this was a wonderful discovery, now we don't have to pay ridiculous amounts of $$ for gas to drive to get our essentials (off topic, sorry). anyway, as we walked we decided to see if target had any leftover easter candy (we hit up all the after sales for the sugar holidays). unfortunately the shelves had been picked pretty well clean, except for marshmallow peeps (they literally had thousands of packs left). with all easter candy on 90% off we decided to load up, how can you pass up that deal? so a pack of peeps (usually 90cents) was only 9cents. i proceeded to buy 10 packs! i love em, and they gotta last till haloween! anyway we bought some other stuff and walked home. we ended up spending a grand $2.27 on easter goodies. that means that it should have been over $20 regular price! total score for us.

if that wasn't enough we then proceeded to buy more candy at aldi when we went shopping two days later. i love easter sales! so now we are officially stocked since there isn't another good sugar holiday until october (what's up with that?).

exciting stuff i know, just thougth you might want to know....

ah yes microwaves do provide hours of fun, but you've not had a good peep until they are months old and have had holes poked in their packages for a while (makes them good and hard) also they make a mind numbingly sweet s'more. that's even a bit overboard for me
