Invasion of the ... .What??????

If I didn't know better I would think some people want to make me fat(ter)! On the 20th a
package arrived and I emailed the sender to ask if it was perishable as
I had already eaten too much that day and they said no so I put it
aside until Monday (after I did my semi weekly weigh in!) and opened the
box and I dived in!! It was a large snow scene tin split into quarters
with cashews in one, chocolate walnuts in another, white frosted pecans
in a third and the last quarter had honey roasted cinnamon pecans.
Within an hour I had eaten at least half of each quarter even the
cinnamon pecans which I didn't particularly like, but in the spirit of
the holiday while reading the nutritional information enclosed with the
tin--as if anyone is really interested in the nutritional information as
they are eating this assortment!!! Let's face it, both nuts and
chocolate are good for you though I don't think you are suppose to eat a
years requirement in one hour!


And
then that afternoon I received another package and something
happened--it all disappeared and all I had was the empty woven basket it
came in! There had been cheeses, crackers, chocolate cookies, assorted
candies and small cakes in the package--now all gone!

I
really have to call the exterminator because no one could eat ALL
that--both packages--unless they were squirrels storing it or mice
taking it all into a private hole. I did suspect Santa but he wasn't due
until that night.

This
is a mystery----mmmmmm--maybe I should call Olivia from "Law &
Order" or one of the other police or Sherlock Holmes--Agatha Christie?
Well before I call anyone guess I better get rid of some evidence--my
scale doesn't lie!

Soon all the holiday goodies will be gone and I will be regretting eating everything so fast. I should be pacing myself more.
