No brownies Point!

"I was kicked out of the Boy Scouts for eating a Brownie" - Unknown

I don’t like to give advice, but this one time, I’ll do an exception: If you go to Costco and you see the box of two-bite brownies walk run away! Do not look back, do not slow down, go straight to the customer service and return your card, you will not want to go back to the store ever!

You might be thinking: “I wonder what bug bit him today?” You are wrong! It is winter, there are NO bugs! I’m just trying to prevent all of you from doing one of the worse mistake of your life, ever! Let me tell you my story…

Last Tuesday, we decided to go back to Val-des-Bois. We needed propane and the cheapest place to buy it is at Costco. So on our way, we stopped, and since we were at Costco, we walked in the store to get a few items. So far, there is nothing to blog about except that I walked by the bakery. Usually I’m pretty good and just go and smell the bread. So far in my 53 years and 357 days *wink* *wink* of existence, I have resisted but this time I looked at one of the box of brownies and I reasoned why not, the expiry date is in March and we will have a little sweet to sweeten our meals.

They look innocent... Don't trust the look!

BIG MISTAKE! We arrived at our home for lunch, Christiane had made some sandwiches and we enjoyed them. I looked at the box of brownies and decided to try one… Oh my Gosh! They were the perfect brownies! I ate the first one, they are two-bite brownie and I tried to respect the suggestion and ate only half of one… then I had all those sensations coming to my brain telling me that my life will be changed forever! They were so moist and so chocolaty, every bits coming down was like an orgasmic delight.

Hey Christiane where is my missing half?

Looking at my wife, I could tell she was also having similar a experience. I slowly reached for another one, Christiane followed my lead and helped herself… we ate 3 brownies! We could have expedited the whole box down our digestive track. The whole time it was so quiet, all you could hear was hummmm hummm, we kept looking at each other hoping the other one would take one more, so the other could just do the same and feel no guilt!

Thinking back, we should have ate the whole thing at once, this way we might have hit (the box) bottom, but we let reason guide us…

I found myself spending a lot of time thinking about the BROWNIES. For me it was so much easier to say NO to drugs. I NEVER even had a puff of pot, if I ever took any (illigal) drugs, it would have been without me knowing it, maybe in something like a brownie (from Colorado:)), but I’m pretty sure it never happened. 

But those brownies, they are addictive for sure, every time you take one, you are trying to re-live the first time you had them. I’m thinking about going to detox and register for the 12-step Brownies-holics program, which is: NEVER be more than 12 steps away from brownies. I would give up brownies, but I’m no quitter!

Not a two-bite, it's a bite-two!

On another subject, I just read one of the blog I follow.  You have to check it out, it's  Murr , I was sitting by myself reading it and laughed so much I was crying!
