A Peek Inside the Parsonage

When Whitney was home for Christmas, she opened the drawer in my butcher block cart
and found these… 

Do you know what they are?  M&M’s.  Only these are M&M’s that have gone bad. Whitney told me this was a sin! The chocolate coating on the outside has turned white.  I had tucked this treasure of chocolate in this drawer and would eat one a day.  They were my vitamins and my daily treat.  Then I forgot about them, and they turned white.

The truth is that this isn’t the only treat I enjoy in a day, but I do make it a habit to just have a small taste rather than a whole handful of candy, or a big slice of cake.  I’ve found that I just need a bite or two to satisfy my sweet tooth.  Anything beyond that only adds pounds on me! My one splurge is popcorn!  I love it and will pop it once a month or so – with butter and salt!

I’m going to reform this year.  I’m going to eat TWO M&M’s a day!

There’s my confession and my resolution all in one.  Happy Wednesday!

What treat do you allow yourself to splurge on?
