Our anniversary last week. My thoughtful sister-in-law, Julie, gave John and me a box (to share) of the most divine caramels from "V Chocolates." Two layers of 9 delectable caramels in the box (totaling 18 caramels). We are now down to only three left. (Oh sorry, now it's two... mmmm.) I sheepishly confess that my husband has had only ONE bite. No, I don't mean one caramel, I mean one bite of one caramel. I have eaten the rest. It's shameful, I know. (And it's not that he didn't love that one bite, the boy just has self-control whereas his wife is out-of-control.)
Some with nuts (almonds, macadamia, walnuts), and some without- all dipped or drizzled in a delicate and rich dark chocolate....sigh.
Inside the box, where, underneath this flap, lies the next best thing to heaven.
Okay, Maryanne (slap!), seize the moment- NOT the entire box!

Maryanne, you just enjoy that box of caramels. Go ahead. You've been married for 20 years, so why not celebrate it by eating an entire box (minus one bite) of heavenly caramels!
What a kind sister-in-law you have. I really like her. But she didn't send me jack for our anniversary. lol
Like mother, like daughter.
Your a woman after my own heart!Mike knows not to leave his treats laying around where I can get them.
I say enjoy it!!!
That is so great! I can totally relate to this. Brett hides his treats from me. Once in awhile we will go to a chocolate shop and handpick a box of chocolates and he is always sure to remind me which ones he picked out and that I need to just eat mine. Of course, I am the one home most of the day and they just call out to me....
That's my girl!!!
Free day...I am working on a bag of Cadbury Dark Chocolate Easter eggs...and don't plan to even share one! (or even a bite!)
My mouth is watering just reading your description...and you know I don't eat sweets! If you're going to eat a whole box of chocolates(minus one bite), it looks like this was definitely the box to eat!
Oh, your photography is enticing. I am glad you enjoyed the caramels, they had your name all over the box when I saw it.
Kelly, you need to live next door to me to reap the rewards like Maryanne. :)
