Nothing like a speeding ticket AND a fix-it ticket first thing out the door to put a major damper on your day, gave me a good reason to pout. And pout I did - big time! Well, hell, I figured since I don't get many chances at a legitimate pout I better make each opportunity count. I did as little as I could - didn't fix dinner (of course Pip knew that was coming the minute she saw my face) and excused myself from chores. I didn't necessarily have to announce my mood or intentions when I got home, the look on my face, the Burger King bag (mmmmm . . . . . hot fresh crispy onion rings and a Hersheys pie!) and the giant can of Dark Chocolate Almond Roca said it all. Pip looked at me, observed what was in my hands and asked what happened and without skipping a beat, "you are going to share those right?", it was less question than directive. Of course I was going to share, everyone benefits in one way or another from a Mommy pout. She didn't see the Dove Dark chocolate bar with roasted almonds in my purse - hey, not everything must be made known!!! Some of my mother's best advice was, "always keep a PRIVATE reserve of chocolate and keep it hidden!"
Don't have a clue what the speeding ticket if going to cost me, but getting the fix-it ticket for broken turn signals is going to cost over $400! Oh, dear, a new day and I already feel another pout coming on - or maybe just the urge for a piece of Dark Roca! In case you're wondering, there are 24 pieces exactly of Roca in a Dark Roca canister. We divided them carefully, Even Steven is crucial when it comes to the sharing of these treats in our house!
