Sent from jelly bean heaven...

OK I have to share this story. My family doesn't believe me...but it's the truth HONEST. Who would lie on Easter weekend? I go to town yesterday and say on my way out the door, "I will be coming home with no jelly beans" and I buy jelly beans by accident. Sure you do???? Here's how the story goes:


I go to Wal mart yesterday to get the boy some candy for a Easter basket I'll be putting together for him. I had already asked him what he wanted to see in his basket this year. "What is your candy addiction this week bud"? Sometimes it's Skittles, sometimes Snickers. He likes to change it up from month to month. This month he is in love with Starbursts. Ok good enough, off to Wal mart. I walk in the door and the first thing I see is candy lined up when you first walk in the door. I see Starbursts...good enough, so I grab a bag. I want to get in and out fast. No time for smelling the chocolate. I get Jonathan his favorites (not my favorites, his favorites) He told me in his basket he would like to see some "Starbursts, Skittles, and a chocolate bunny". I don't buy myself or Derrel any candy while going down the aisles. I buy D a card, not candy. I made it though the store and did not put one bunny item in my cart for myself. I was proud ♥. I even mean the candy you know will go in the kids basket but you'll eat later candy??? I have yet to be weak and eat the candy. Out of sight, out of mind, and I've been doing great with that. Buy me flowers for Easter...Not candy, please. I was in and out of Wal mart...Easter candy, new hair dryer and Subway-get out/get home! So I get home and unload the candy into his basket so it's all ready for Sunday mornings "hiding" of the basket. Do you all do that?? Hide the Easter basket and make the kids search all over the house for the basket of candy? I did when I was little and we do that now. Gotta make them work for the goods. LOL So I've got the Skittles, the bunny, cute toy, smarties, and you remember the Starburst's I bought. Well they turned out to be JELLY BEAN Starburst's. I love the jelly beans! And these are the "yummy good" jelly beans. Poo I found this story to be funny and it has been a joke since I came home from Wal mart on Friday. I go to town and say on my way out the door, "I will be coming home with no jelly beans" and I buy jelly beans by accident. Sure you do???? or could they have been sent from jelly bean heaven??

Silly story...

For Easter we are going to Derrel's mom's house. She is doing a ham and her famous potato salad. It's so yummy. She wants me to bring my sweet carrots to dinner this year. They are not good for you at all. I boil them, cover the carrots in brown sugar & butter and bake them on low. Shall I use Splenda this year? Or maybe I could cover the carrots in Peeps. LOL don't you dare take me seriously...I'm kidding!
