milkduds-rolosWe’ve all been there….the money’s coming in, everything is comfortable and happy. There is excess…and there are Rolos.

But we’ve all been here too….money’s tight….and it’s the holidays.  There’s so much going out, and not enough is coming in.  Yes, sometimes you’re forced to make a choice….sometimes you have to go with Milk Duds.

Of course there are a lot of great things about the Milk Dud, the harder caramel, no wasted time unwrapping each individual candy, AND the “35% less fat (Than the Average of the Leading Chocolate Candy Brands)” – note that Milk Duds freely admits it is NOT one of the leading chocolate candy brands right there on the box!!! Not to mention the fact that they’re not quite good enough to finish a pack in a single sitting, so once again, they’re great for the dieters out there.  As a matter of fact, if I worked for the company, I’d suggest a new slogan, “Milk Duds – Keeping You Lean.”

On the other hand, you’ve got the real deal….under that golden foil lies something so magical, something so heavenly, something so good, it defies definition…..unlike the Dud, whose moniker says it all…

It hurts to even write this, but today I was forced to make the choice….ahhhhh, if I only had a few more cents!!  But I made the choice I had to make, and I must say, I’m feeling thinner already!

This holiday season I wish you all something simple….may the Rolos be plentiful.  Happiness and joy and good times for all will surely follow if that is the case!

In other news: Mike Grubbs of Wakey!Wakey! and The Dutch Master will be on One Tree Hill tonight….I hear some big things will be happening.  Now I know you probably record it every week, but just in case you haven’t set your VCR, Tivo, DVR, eh whatever it’s called up, do so now!
