Muskateer Madness

Again.

I know my daughter will have to take some toys or treats to school for Easter. So, I splurge. I buy a bag of cheap toys and a bag of candy. I make sure to choose a type of candy that doesn't tempt me. I have a past, issue.

I, innocently, end up opening the package of candy, for a perfectly good reason. Hmmm...it's a little hard to remember just what that reason was now.

Then! I discover I can't live without those luscious melting Muskateers and they're so small, it's really no big deal. All things in moderation--that's what I always say. I can eat two, three, or four, or...the whole bag.

What just happened?

Grumpy Mom Goal of the Season: Only granola bites and fruit leathers for Easter this year.

When I was shopping for the Mia and Manuel's Easter basket, and choosing candy, I would pick a piece and say, "Oh, I would like this" or "Oh Manny (my husband) would ike that." Mia is too little to eat candy, so it's fair game! :)

At April 21, 2011 at 9:30 AM , The Neal Family said...: I do the same thing! I'm a teacher so I get all the leftovers the kids don't want. Sometimes it's yuck candy like jolly ranchers but sometimes it's oreos or animal crackers, that I will take!
At April 21, 2011 at 11:16 AM , Irish Italian Blessings said...: Oh man easter candy gets me EVERY YEAR!! It's awful and amazing at the same time. I'm a total sucker for the Peanut Butter Eggs and Sweet Tart Jelly Beans. I say eat em while you can because before you know it, they'll be gone!
At April 21, 2011 at 11:32 AM , Unknown said...: I have a hard time with the "just one" thing myself! I don't buy much candy for the kids baskets, just enough to send them into a sugar coma for one day, I focus on some small, fun, spring toys! Have fun!
At April 21, 2011 at 1:49 PM , Unknown said...: Oh my, those look yummy! I might have to give those a try!
At April 21, 2011 at 8:35 PM , The Muhr Family said...: Oooo I have to try those marshmallow musketeers!
I'm a sucker for any chcolate/peanutbutter combo. I have been known to sneak candy from the baskets before the "bunny" even gets to give it out :)
At April 21, 2011 at 11:03 PM , Muriel Miller said...: Oh my am I reading that right? Does that say Marshmallow covered in chocolate?!?!?! YUM! I must get some of these!
At April 22, 2011 at 7:26 AM , Mrs E said...: I LOVE Muskateers. Only my favorite candy ever. And, your secret is safe with me.
In fact, why dont' you come over and I'll pick up another bag :0)
At April 23, 2011 at 1:15 AM , I Am Not Superwoman said...: Very addicting! I never was a big fan of musketeers but man my dad was. Always had them around. I prefer snickers. Not doing much in the terms of candy this year for easter....don't want the temptation...I'm watching my figure...lol...
