Jellybeans out of one of the Easter Baskets... Now how do I explain this?

Go buy some more. Your secret's safe with us. Now if you ate all the chocolate bunnies, well, that's as low as you can get!

 

[Tinker'n'Fun]

I could go get some more.. but I don't trust myself.... Hehe the bunnies all still have ears, but a few of the peeps are misfits... I swear they came that way!

If the Peeps are bunny Peeps, you can eat all the ears off and turn them into chick Peeps. The kids will never know the difference...not that I have any experience with this.

I think you need to go shopping tomorrow.

You said, out of one of the baskets. That implies there are others, yes?

Take some jelly beans from the remaining basket(s) and redistribute!

Or pick up another bag... LOL.

Go buy another bag of jelly beans. But. Do.Not.Open.The.Bag....until you play the Easter Bunny and put the baskets out before you go to bed. That way you won't be tempted to eat them again.

By the way, I love the picture in your signature! Very nice!

eat the jelly beans out of the other basket(s)..so that there are none in any of them...lol!..Happy Easter

Alright.... I am right there with you. I have been working out and eating better and doing really well. That is until I brought those blasted jelly beans into my house. My youngest asked for some jelly beans, so I bought a bog of Jelly Bellies and ate almost the whole thing. Feeling bad because she was still asking and saying she didn't get any I bought another bag -- not Jelly Bellies though. I thought if I bought a generic kind I wouldn't eat them. WRONG!! Bought more and immediately gave them to dh to hide until we need them for baskets.

I tell you..... those things are evil. LOL!!!!!

 

[Tinker'n'Fun]

I resisted the other jelly beans during the night. so.... I think I like the redistribution idea for the baskets and buying an additional bag for the secret cupboard. Not that I need them, but hey you never know!

And instead of getting new peeps, I have bunnies ones; so I ate the ears, and then I ate the legs and now we have peep smilies, like this one but green! Good thing my kids are 14 and 17 and will never be the wiser.

Here's hoping everyone has a great Easter or a beautiful Spring weekend. Diane.

My mom stopped trying with easter baskets when I was quite small, like 4, I think. My brothers got theirs until they were 10 or so. The reason was that we both like black jelly beans.

It was fine for her to steal all the black ones out of my brothers' baskets. Most kids it would be fine. My mom and I will RACE for the black jelly beans out of a bag of jelly beans. If she put out a bag, we'd both pick through it until all the black ones were gone and then the rest would sit there. Soooo, I think she just gave up.

There was also the fact that the only white bunnies (I DESPISE chocolate) when I was growing up were pathetic things compared to the chocolate bunnies. So really, the baskets for me were kind of sad. I much prefered making my own basket, dying my own eggs, and buying my own candy in the weeks before Easter to eat at my leisure.


Fortunately, now you can buy all black bags of jelly bellies and they make BIG white buns!
