you grab an Oreo Double Stuff cookie to munch on while you do the dishes, and as soon as you take it apart, you drop the part with the most cream into the dishwater. SIGH!!! It was truly sad, especially since I was craving it 
Please tell me it wasnât the last one in the house..
Tom
Was it the last one?
Well, no it wasnât. But I did take it as kind of a sign that perhaps I shouldnât have been eating it 
That and GaryKelly alluding to my expanding waistline and attributing it to too much chocolate 
although to be entirely honest, I was sneaking it to begin with, and so I have to wait until Iâm not bombarded with kids to sneak anotherâŚonly donât tell anyone
Years ago, I was visiting my brother and happened to be in his bedroom when he opened his top chest drawer and I espied a giant bag of Peanut M&Ms that he kept hidden from the kids.
So, I wonder, how many of you with youngâuns got a candy or cookie stash thatâs for personal use only?
Come on Izz- there is no sign in the universe strong enough to keep one away from an Oreo!!
Tom
or peanut m&mâs!
I used to get Godiva chocolates at Valentineâs day or Christmasâa 1 or 2 lb. boxâwhich I would keep in my dresser drawer for exactly that reason.
Nowadays, sadly, chocolates give me a headache, and I donât eat them except very rarely.
Man, thatâs tough. I get 'em from Cabernet Sauvignon, even the very good stuff and thatâs bad enoughâŚ
Thankfully, I donât get headaches from either. I do get a headache from drinking even one Budweiser, though. Of course, staying away from Bud is a pretty darn easy thing to do.
Tom
I heard an elaborate urban legend about Bud that I am not sure is true. The contention is that its made from rice instead of hops and sours immediately upon warming because âthe brewers donât know how to handle rice-based liquors, unlike the Japanese.â Sounded plausible at the time. In any case, I canâ stand the stuff.
I really think that craft ales to Bud is like chocolate decadence compared to Twinkies. A lot of emptinessâŚ
You know itâs a bad day whenâŚ
The sun comes up in the west.
You wake up face down on the pavement.
Your pet rock snaps at you.
You call your answering sevice, and they tell you itâs none of your business.
You put on the news, and theyâre showing emergency routes out of the city.
Your personal computer threatens to tell all.
Your birthday cake collapses from the weight of the candles.
You call Suicide Prevention, and they put you on hold.
The car horn goes off accidentally, and remains stuck as you follow a group of Hellâs Angels onto the freeway.
You see a â60 minutesâ news team waiting in your office.
When you step on your scale and it reads tilt.
The bird singing outside your window is a vulture.
You need your chocoholic fix and the government just banned chocolate!
Think of the positive side Izz, it could be worse!

Well, Bud is made with âsomeâ rice, not in place of the hops, but rather as part of the grain bill, so it would replace some of the barley.
Here, is something directly from Anheuser-Busch website.
Rice
"Rice provides Budweiser with its characteristic lightness, crispness and refreshing taste.
Many brewers use only four ingredients in beer â water, barley malt, hops and yeast.
The additional step of brewing Budweiser with rice provides the balance necessary to create its trademark refreshing taste, âdrinkabilityâ and crispness. While âextra,â this step is critical to the unique taste of Budweiser."
Enjoy your rice.
Tom
Back to the Oreos â I think they should quit calling Double Stuff Oreos âDouble Stuff.â Instead they should rename them as just plain Oreos, and then they could market the plain old Oreos as âlow fat, low carbâ Oreos.
Then I wouldnât feel as guilty about eating them, until they come out with Quadruple Stuff Oreos, which they could then call âDouble Stuff.â
I think you have a plan hereâŚwe should petition Nabisco (is that who makes Oreos?) and see if they will. I know Iâd be up for it!
As for the cookie, I ended up with a small piece of Hershey bar instead (although now that Emm has talked about Godiva, it seems like a poor substitute! ).
You need your chocoholic fix and the government just banned chocolate!
Youâre right, SaraâŚthis would be much, MUCH worse!!
I would have grabbed it out of the dishwater and rinsed it off and ate it! 
By the by, Congratulations for another one on the way!
Cheers,
Kathy
Godiva? Dresser? Donât make senseâŚduh.
Steve
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 outâŚdoes that count?
And thank you for the congrats!
Pass me two and my lips will be sealed⌠er⌠busyâŚ
Guilty as charged. Except hiding ice cream in a dresser drawer doesnât work.
