One of the very few perks of working in a downtown office is easy access to the lake front path for lunchtime runs the holiday treats. I know I have already mentioned that I have done poorly okay, really bad this year on avoiding the treats, in fact I have been seeking them out! Yum, Yum, Yum….and I’m +2 on the scales too, if you must know. Not good, but Yum, Yum, Yum. Well, today marks the last work day of the year for many people. Julie and I will still be slaving away in the office tomorrow if you must know but MOST will be off tomorrow, Monday and possibly all of next week. Well, at 2:30pm today we received another shipment delivery of holiday goodies. More than ANY small office could consume. Two of these…….
Lot of cookies, more than I have seen since last year’s delivery. And yes, I brought one home. Should have just said NO. But I couldn’t. It’s for Me & Jeni H. the kiddos on Christmas Eve and Christmas Day, right? We will see how long they last. We already took a sampling. Notice a few missing? Maybe….hurry over to get yours!
And of course, I pulled off all the Lindor Truffles for my own personal stash safe keeping.
My stash looks more like this:
And since I have already ingested enough calories today to support a small family, might as well wash it all down with a few of these:Yeah, I’m not cooking tonight. It’s cookies, Lindor Truffles & Amstel Light….or the fam can dig some leftovers out of the fridge.
What are you having for dinner? Or are you stopping by here to share my stash? Come on over, I’ll be wrapping the rest of the presents other than the Santa gift for Aby that will probably never arrive.

Hey, Amanda! I’m am downtown in the loop too! Very close to you! I will message you next week and hopefully we can go out to lunch!
Unbeilevalbe how well-written and informative this was.
mmm…Lindor chocolates! We had spaghetti last night, although I would have preferred cookies, chocolate and beer! Cheers to your last day of work, today! We’ll miss you tomorrow morning! I’ll have a peppermint mocha frapp in your honor 🙂
Awesome! Make it a Skinny!
Oh the skinny peppermint mocha rocks my world! I’m not even a Starbucks devotee, but it is amazing. I hear it has a lot of protein, too.
Hey 2Tall. Merry Christmas. You rock. God bless you and yours. mitzi
