Economical or just plain mean?

I would have to say I have a love/hate relationship with chocolate. I try really hard to hate it but with no luck...I guess I can't resist a good thing! I was out grocery shopping the other morning and milk chocolate chips were on sale. It was a deal I just couldn't pass up...seeing as though Christmas is coming eventually...and all! Okay, I'm a sucker for a great deal! No more need to justify the purchase.



But now the problem is how can they last in my home until baking season starts in full bloom...in about a month or so! I love, Love LoVe to bake and have packages of something-that's-simply-irresistable in my cupboard and in plain view for all those in favor of a yummy pick-me-up whatever that time may be...these chips just won't last. My hubby can see on the high shelves and my toddlers rips everything out of the bottom shelves...what's this woman to do...???

Do you notice the label dried fruit?



Okay, it's a tad mean but it is kinda funny! I have no worries of them not making it till Christmas...if it has anything to do with the rest of the family....and I suppose now, I'm asking you to help me be accountable!

I have to admit I miss chocolate chips, so if I was in your shoes, I would have bought a few packages for baking for Christmas, a package to eat on the way home from the store, and one for the weekend!

And I'm so glad that you got the title of my post on Politics. I wondered if anyone would get it (duh, if anyone would it would be YOU). Get your legwarmers on and let's dance!

Nice label... lol...
very smart. I love chocholate but my teeth can't handle it. So I have to say that I'm lucky. It's good, but very painfull. lol
Good luck with fighting the temptation.
