It’s a particular weakness of mine. I freely admit it. I try to be good, but then something happens, like my mother and sister combining to give me twelve pounds<\/i> of gummi bears for my birthday.<\/p>\n
In college my stand-by was Peanut Butter M&Ms. Or Peanut Butter Snickers. Or Reese’s Peanut Butter Cups. Suffice it to say, I love peanut butter. I sometimes joke that life without coffee isn’t worth living, but the truth is that, for me, a life without peanut butter<\/i> would be pure hell.<\/p>\n
Naturally, I have a great fondness for gummis as well, if birthday presents are anything to judge by. (Chocolate covered gummi bears, by the way, are a crime against humanity. You have been warned.)<\/p>\n
In the last few years, I’ve turned to York Peppermint Patties (or cheap knockoffs) for my sweet needs. I’m also a fan of the Payday candy bar, which goes back to my fondness for peanuts and peanut butter.<\/p>\n
Don’t ever give me Turkish Delight, though! That’s an atrocity.<\/p>\n
Right now, the only thing I have around the house junk food-wise is mint chocolate chip sandwiches.<\/p>\n
Of course, I’m likely as not to keep granola bars and animals crackers at the office. Animal crackers especially, as they’re just plain fun. \ud83d\ude42<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
