Oh no! I stopped by the grocery store last night to pick up something quick and was confronted by a HUGE display of Cadbury chocolate eggs. Not just any run-of-the-mill Easter candy, but my nemesis, the Cadbury egg. I don’t know why I like these, but I really do.
How do I keep myself from temptation for the next six weeks?

If you’re talking about the mini-eggs with the pastel sugar shells, I’ve already bought a large bag. We’re just going to have to stay away from grocery stores and Walgreens for the duration.

I think she means the chocolate ones with the creamy filling. I would advise to get the mini ones and treat yourself to one every other day.

Yep, I responded before I saw the photo… I’m definitely going to have to ration mine.

Here’s an idea. Decide how many you will allow yourself to eat in the next six weeks. Then, write a check to 45’s reelection campaign. Tell YA to mail it if you go over your limit or purchase more.

There is no legal definition of Creme. They say it’s a slurry made from unsold Halloween candy corn.

As far as I know, there are no addictive candies associated with May Day, Flag Day or the 4th of July. If you just stay away from the grocery store for six weeks, you’ll be home free.

Last year with the mini-eggs: I had a bunch of tiny zip-lock bags but you could use something else, I’m sure. I put maybe half a dozen (whatever you decide) in each bag, put them somewhere that’s not TOO easy to get to, and rationed myself a certain amount each day. Some days were one-bag days, some days more…
