Reason #37,384,940,272 why I love Actor: he brings me lots of gourmet candy :-D

I love candy & deserts & food & well, you get the point... But yea, he recently started working at this great store & I've probably eaten like 10 pounds of candy. That sounds really bad but it's oh so good. lol. I mean I've eaten pralines, truffles, glazed pecans, fudge & chocolate covered everything! I've had chocolate covered pretzels, Nutter Butters, marshmallows... yes white chocolate covered marshmallows, or WCCM. They're like 4 or 5 jumbo marshmallows on a stick like kabobs & covered with the greatest white chocolate ever! I remember the 1st night he gave it to me I didn't get a chance to eat it so I took it to work with me the next morning. So how about I'm sitting at me cube eating a WCCM at 8 o'clock in the morning. My co-worker (who's really health concious btw) walked past & was like "Oh my God! What are you eating?!"

*Insert voiceover here* "Need a moment? Chew things over with a... WCCM?"

I looked up & said "Huh?" like I didn't hear the question. "What are you eating dear child?!" "Ummm, a chocolate covered... banana?" despite the fact that there's sprinkles on top & that there's no way that it looks like anything else but candy. "Yea right, a chocolate covered banana! What the HELL are you doing eating a WCCM at 8 o'clock in the morning?!"

*Insert me slowly handing her WCCM as a gesture of "Cuz it's good. Try it."* all the while my face has that half smile half don't-hurt-me look. The same look that a 4 yr. old gives their mom when they're caught doing something really bad & tries to be cute to get out of it.

"Akanke! What the hell! Where does it all go? If I had that it'd go straight to my thighs" she said patting her thighs. By that time everyone in the office had heard our conversation & said "Wait, what is she eating?" "A WCCM!"

*Insert same reaction from her times 20*

She walks off, muttering to herself "A WCCM at 8 o'clock in the morning..."

But yea, that's how good that thing is. I couldn't stop eating despite the bad reactions. hehe. I didn't want to...

Another one of my favorites from his store are bear claws. They're pecans, caramel & white chocolate; a huge "Turtle" if you will, but wayyyy more succulent. I had the first one at work too & as soon as I took that bite I immediately wrapped it & put it back in the ziploc bag that I got it from. It was so good that I didn't wanna get distracted from my work. haha. No seriously... I texted him & was like "Umm, I gotta finish this bear claw later." I knew that if I took another bite I'd just fall back in my chair, feet kicked up, eyes closed, paper knocked off the desk, hair all flowing from the invisible wind. It was like a Dove chocolate commercial. Seriously man. It's THAT good.

Now I'm mad that I didn't bring any to work with me today. Boo...







But at the end of the day, nomatter how many decadent & divine goodies that I have, Actor's still my favorite chocolate.

*Insert corny smile here*
