What the Hell was I thinking?
Well as October winds down, something occurs to me. I will not be able to charge my kids the "Trick 'R Treat Tax". What is the TRT Tax? Quite simply, I always tell the kids that they can hav any candy the get, with the exception of the full size or pumpkin sized Reese's Cups. Those were mine! So, when Halloween was over, I would go through th kid's bags and help them seperate the candy out and collect my tax. Then eat it. One year, Someone must have had them on sale, because the kids collected about 20 of them. That year I only took half, but ate them all that night.
Ten peanut butter cups at one time. No wonder I weighed over 330 lbs! Sad part, that is not the worse thing I have ever eaten. Las year, when my depression was at it's worse, I would make what I called "Devil's Milk" which consisted of:
• One package of Jell-o Devils food instant pudding
• One can of sweetened condensed milk
• two cups of whole milk
I would mix it all together, top with whipped cream and Hershy's Extra Dark chocolate syurp and drink. Often. As just a night time drink. [Oh man it was yummy.] I recentlly figured out that that drink, was indeed milk of the Devil:
- Calories: 2040 (from Fat 414)
- Total Fat 46g (Sat Fat 30g)
- Cholesterol 170mg
- Sodium 2410mg
- Carbs 344g (Sugars 314g)
Not my best decision. But I have come a long way since then and am now half way to my goal! This means that the kid's Reese's cups are safe this year. Well mostly ... I might have to liberate one or two. XD
