    I think what Joy really means by their “New Year’s Diet” is all the treats they bought at the post holiday sales for next year.

    Of course they have to finish this year’s Christmas cookies before they can start on those.

    Burl isn’t eager to get rid of this tin, though, cos the neighbor who brought it is well off.She puts in only the finest cookies, like real Oreos and Chips Ahoy, not MegaMart brand “Oleos” and “Ahoy Mr. Chips.”

    Eat as many as they can until they get stale and then throw the rest out? WHAT rest? They stuff their podgy faces at a rate of knots. I’ll be surprised if the cookies last the evening.

    In his entire life, he’s hever owned a stale cookie. (Until the kid left home, I didn’t know milk would last more than two days.)

    No self control in any of them – just look at the body shapes. My man has much more self control than I, however – he gets very annoyed that I talk about certain things too much. I have no trouble with foods, however nor does he.

    I baked cupcakes for Halloween but just for all the neighbors I know with kids, and I candied orange peels from my organic Naval in the front yard and dipped in 85% Lindt chocolate. Took samples to those neighbors with the recipe (they always have my permission to pick) and the rest are going with to share with my family and his (we both have kids and grandkids we will see there).

    The Pennys remind me of those “Monster Machine” TV shows and specifically the huge excavators used in western strip mines. The earth must rumble—as well as their guts—when they are eating.
