The other day my dear friend, Laurisa, gave me a little gift bag with a few little treats in it. Inside, it had a chocolate truffle, a single serving iced tea mix, and a fairly good size piece of fudge. Mmm, I love fudge. When I got home, I put it in the fridge to cool down and wait for the perfect timing to indulge in my sweet, sweet treat. And I know I didn't want to share with the kids, 'cause it'd be gone in a matter of mere seconds, and I can make something like this last a long, long time.
My mouth was watering for days. Then, finally it happened, the perfect opportunity. Billy and the boys went out of town to race their quads, so it was just me and the girls. To distract them, I put on a t.v. show and gave them a snack. It was working out perfectly. Ever so quietly, I got the bag out of the fridge, opened the fudge, took a quick whiff (I'm a smeller you know) and thought that it was a mix of regular chocolate fudge and possibly orange fudge as well. Mmm, fudge.
I cut a small sliver and set it delicately on my tongue. It was like nothing I've ever tasted before.
Quickly, I called Laurisa to ask her, "Why in the world would you give one of your best friends a thing of SOAP that looks exactly like CHOCOLATE???!!!"

I LOVE YOUR NEW LOOK ON THE BLOG!!!
So, as I was reading, I thought, "I got a similar treat bag from Laurisa, but--dang--mine didn't have fudge! " And I was beginning to feel bummed that your bag contained FUDGE!
After I got over that, I thought, "Geeze, she has will power! I ate the truffle as soon as I got home and had the tea the next day. Wow, I applaud her for waiting!"
Then I almost peed my pants in laughter as I read your conclusion. The soap I got is white with confetti inside and looks like soap. Oh, I wish I were there to see the look on your face.
And I am so glad you got the "fudge-looking soap and not me! He he!!
Thanks for the laugh!
Hahahaha .... I love all the leading up anticipation and how you waited for the "perfect" time ... so funny Gina.
You tricked me. In order to comment I had to set up an account. No fair. Yeah Yeah I know your jaw just dropped to the floor. Hope it was clean.LOL I know you are in utter shock that I commented and read your blog. There is always a first for everything. Maybe not a second, but always a first. Anyway, I laughed again at your expense, even though I had heard it already. So funny and how perfect that you got the fudge one. That one will go down in history. Next time I'll get you real fudge and tell you it is soap and then we'll be laughing at you again. bye and you can pick up your jaw now before it gets stuck like that.
That is too funny!!! What a crack up. I hope she wanted you to think that, then it would even be better. But knowing Laurisa, I'm sure her intentions were good! :)
Nope, she was just giving me soap. She said she even thought it looked like chocolate. She handed out a few bags and didn't know who got what.
My mom saw it the day I brought it home and was bummed that I wouldn't open the fudge that day. She thought it was fudge, too. Everybody that's seen it thinks that's what it is!
HA!!! That is TOO FUNNY. I thought it looked like Resses fudge. I love me some Reeses fudge, man! I would have hoarded it too!
